LNS: Challenge #9 Entry

Late Night Stampers, a yahoo group for SU! Enthsiests (we just recently opened ourselves up to non demonstrators) has their weekly Design Team Challenges. This week we were given a sketch to make a card from (See Above).

I actually struggled a little with this. Not because I couldn't come up with any ideas, but because all my ideas required one item I didn't own. Each time I place an order, I generally need specific things and so I can't be as spontaneous as I'd like. Be that as it may, here is the card I came up with.

I sometimes get intimidated by some of the cards that are entered for these challenges, there is a LOT of talent in this group. I keep self-talking myself to not be intimidated but to use it as a means to motivate myself to be better than I am.

To that end, I wanted to change up my card a little and so its not a standard side or bottom opening card.

So I made it open in the center of the card. :)

More Butterflies

And here is the birthday card to go along with the vase I posted about in the previous post. I think its obvious by now I really like the Flight of the Butterflies stamp set and the Big Shot. :) I had actually wanted to use the circle scallop die-cut, but it was a little too big for the card. Turns out it will probably work for the Monday Mojo #60 .

Flight of the Butterfly - Birthday Cards

Its been a while since I've posted anything.

I've started to make the birthday cards for our birthday celebrations here at work. We're celebrating October's birthdays next week, so there are the cards I made.The photos aren't that great, I either need a new camera or need to take lessons on how to take better photos.

The bases of each card are pre-made textured cardstock. I got a box of them with envelopes a while back from Michael's. Everything else is stampin up.
