More CAS Note cards: flowers...

My thought for the day.

I keep trying to make sense of it all, but perhaps there is no sense to be made of it...

Hello crafty friends!

I wish I could say there was an end in sight for these simple cards, but at the moment that is a negative. More on the way...

I am going to Scrap That in 4 short days, and I hope to complete many, many cards in one day. I have been designing one- cutting paper to make 4-6 of that design and bagging them up to be put together later. Saturday will be the "later".

What is Scrap That- you may ask? It is a Craft store that does all day cropping, scrapbooking, card-making, crafting from 8am until 11 or 12 imdnight. Usually 11pm. I never get there early because there is always something else to do on Saturday. But I will plan to arrive early this time. I am so very much looking forward to it.

Well, I traveled around the internet a little and a new challenge blog was brought to my attention. I love the blogs that allow you to Do You- and still post. That is why MIM is a big favorite of mine. I want to join in on the other challenges, but right now I just can't wrap my brain around some of them. But I am definitely going to get back to the Tuesday Trigger. I love that one.

And on: http://justkeeponcreating.blogspot.com.au/ Susan (the hostess) refered to another blog: http://ladyoflosttimescrafts.blogspot.com.au/2011/12/i-uiu.html

where you can go to take the "Use it up" pledge. Go check it out.

I am "using" on these cards today. These flowers by K & Co. have been in my stash for a while and that is another reason why I decided to start these quick cards. I did not take the pledge yet because I can't promise to post monthly, but eventually I will take that pledge.

Here they are...another installment....

The stem is embossed using Stamp It Up and the quote is also S.I.U. I think the embossing folder is a QuicKutz, but it could also be Sizzix. Not sure. After making these quick notecards, I am in love with these frame embossing folders.

Thanks for dropping by for a visit....

Hugs!

Aren't women amazing! I have quite a few amazing women in my life, and I am thankful for them all!

This is not the last of the quick note cards. But I am working on some different designs these days. By my calculations I will need to make at 200-300 cards for my friends, family members and service workers. Yes that's right. I will also be giving some cards to Doctors, nurses and technicians that have been helping me or my son out for the past eons of years. I have so many ideas in my head, but it takes forever to transfer into reality. And no, I didn't say teachers because the only teachers that have really been helpful (besides my sister) are male, and I don't know if they would like the note cards...

Last night I worked on a machine I bought a few years ago. I don't think they are even selling it any more. The Letterpress. It's pretty cool, but very messy. So you will see some of those cards coming up soon. I got tired after I made about 60 cards. That was only 4 designs that I duplicated in different colors. I hate the ink you are supposed to use with it, so I just used regular dye ink by Stampin' Up. I wish the templates were metal so I could use them in my Wizard.

Hi there! Another short post. I am continuing with a couple of the cards I already told you about.

I recently hosted a Stampin Up party. Motivated by Stampin Up products (of course) and also by the fact that this is Sale-abration time. Sad but true. The party was a great success! Better than I ever imagined. Thanks to all of my friends, old and new, co-workers and family that supported this idea. :)

This first card is the thank you I made to give them for coming out. I was very happy with how it turned out. I actually had to make a few more and used a K & Co. butterfly because I ran out of time, and it was just quicker. I did not photograph any of those and they were all given out. The thing that probably took me the longest was threading those darm buttons! I made about 25 cards, so that was 75 buttons!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I made the card design below from one I saw on the internet because it looked quick! And it was.

I don't think I changed much. Maybe the sentiment, the type of heart and the color of the first one. So this is not my design!

I like this....Thanks for your visit! Hope to see you again soon!

Hugs!
