My Take on the Weekend Challenge at Scraps of Color

October Swaps

Image
    I participted in 2 card swaps this month & all my cards went postal (were mailed out) today. For the swap on the CricutScrapLifters Yahoo! Group swap, I made a "Best Wishes" card & a winter-themed card. In addition to using my Cricut cartridges, I also used my border punches & my newest Martha Stewart Punch-Around-the-Page set, Double Loop. The other swap was over at Scraps of Color. This month's theme was Thank You. I opted to use my Cricut & my Martha Stewart Deep Edge punch for my design & two of my favorite colors - orange & blue. I came across some cute, clearanced accents at Michael's Arts & Crafts & added them to the front of the card, along with some ribbon. Inside, the writing area is actually a tag. I was able to use my Graphically Speaking, Lyrical Letters, & Sentimentals Cricut cartridges on these projects - my personal challenge goes on :)

Condolences Card - Very Special

Image
I was contacted by a customer to make a card for a co-worker whose baby (full-term) was delivered stillborn... I was reminded about the preciousness of life & the gifts God gives us by allowing our lives to be touched by others. I found the wording I used for the inside of the card at  myforeverchild.com  & used my Cricut Design Studio software to create the card. (Inside of card is personalized & not posted here.)

Well, football pushed my CSI: Miami back to 11pm EST - grrrr... So, I had to keep myself busy until then. Decided to pull out my "Fabulous Folds for Card Making" book & whip something up. Here it is!
