challenges

Our Not So Secret Sister group is having an online crop with challenges this weekend. Thanks so much Danielle and sisters for putting this together. There are 8 challenges. I used my "Extreme" birthday card from yesterday for Challenge #5--use a new cartridge.
This card is for Challenge #4-go to the Message Board and find a project you like. I found a blog through the MB, Creative High, and I saw a card I really liked. It inspired me to pull out a set of stamps and nestie dies I bought at CKC that I had not tried yet. I have a friend having a surgery next week, so I made a get well card for her.
This card is for Challenge #8--a valentine card. I tried making a paper rosette. Been wanting to do one of these for a while.

new projects!!!

I finally made into my craft room and got some crafting done. (Actually, I did a few LO's during Christmas break but never got photo taken to post them....)
Used a PageMaps' sketch for this picture heavy LO of our Thanksgiving Day fun!
DS has a birthday tomorrow!!! I wanted to use my new Dude cricut cart to make him a special card for his 14th birthday.

And one of his friend's has a birthday tomorrow, so I created this card for her. Papercraft Star had a tutorial today showing how to make this really wonderful and easy flower. I had to try it out!
It felt good to be a bit creative. Now back to laundry, bills, cookings, errands, etc......
