Good Morning!
It is Wednesday again so that means over at La ~ La Land
there is a new challenge ~ this week by the lovely Lisa ~ No DP!!!!
"Now, on to this week's challenge. I challenge you to make a card without using any designer/decorative paper (including any you stamp on your own). Yep, that's right... only cardstock! But you can dry emboss the cardstock layers and use whatever embellishments you want. It's sort of the old-fashioned way of card-making!"
Now that is a challenge for me!! I just didn't know where to start! haha
Once I did get started though it was probably the
fastest card I have ever made!
I decided to go with Porsha today! Isn't she adorable!
I used Blush CS from CTMH and ran it through the cuttlebug and then sanded it!
I also used Garden Green CS and crinkled it up and then sanded that.
Image was colored in with Distress inks and twinkling H20's.
You have until February 14th to leave a link for a chance to win
Well today we are getting slammed with some more snow!! I think it is
the most we have ever had since I moved here from Buffalo! It is actually
beginning to look like home!! haha
Also I wanted to know if anyone else is having problems with the internet??
I don't know if it is my computer or my service but it is so SLOW!!!!
It takes minutes to follow links and it is literally driving me crazy! I have no
desire to even come on the computer!!!!
Oh well I hope you all have a fabulous day!! I will be shoveling and probably
building one heck of a snowman!! The girls of course got the day
off of school so playing outside is inevitable!!
