Card of the Week Challenge: Happy Birthday!

by admin on August 30, 2010

Welcome to the new and revised Card of the Week blog!  I hope to keep the inspiration coming, but this time, I want you to share!  Here’s the idea:

  • I’ll post a theme each week.
  • You have all week to link up a picture by commenting on this post.
  • Card of the Week readers will vote on their favorite and that card will be featured in the Card of the Week gallery.

Of course, this is a new idea, so we’ll be tweaking the game plan as it goes along.

Challenge number one:  birthday cards! Free Smiley Courtesy of www.millan.net

Everyone needs these cards — we need fancy birthday cards, kids cards, masculine cards, quick cards, funny cards, loving cards, “you’re old” cards…. the list is endless.  As card makers, I’m sure you know that you will NOT have that card handy when you need it!  Well, let this challenge be your inspiration.

Comment below with a link to your birthday card and I’ll post it here.  Next Monday, I’ll announce the winner of Card of the Week and give you a new challenge.

Cracking up. May you have moments in your day that move you as much as this guy. By the way, I saw a full rainbow the other day and it was pretty magical. I did take a picture — even a video, but I'm afraid I didn't have quite this reaction…

Going ’round and round!

July 13, 2010

Mark's Finest Papers gave us a challenge — create a project, any project, but it must feature circles.  We were up for the task. The Supernovas are all using stamps from Mark's Finest Papers. The stamp set I'm using is Speedy the Cat's Friends.  I have 3 cats (this qualifies me as a crazy cat [...]

Bling me up, baby!

July 11, 2010

Today we have a really special blog hop and challenge going on all around the Planet! It’s all about BLING! You can call it paper make-up, jewelry, bling, whatever — it’s that little bit of glaze, glitter and dazzle that you ad to your cards to give them that “finishing touch”. The Supernovas are using [...]

Paper Craft Planet Color Challenge #74

June 30, 2010

0 votes  I had SO much fun working up today's color challenge. I was stuck on colors since Millie used red, white and blue for last week. I decided that the best place to find a color inspiration piece would be to flip through my magazines, so I grabbed Southern Living and started flipping. (Side [...]

Not dead yet.

June 4, 2010

Thank you to all my readers who emailed me or commented in worry over my longer than planned absence.  We had end of the year, baseball tournament, vacation and other chaos all at once. I did what I never do — closed the computer and enjoyed.  I highly recommend it.  Here's the problem: I came [...]
