April Card Making...

After a slump of a few weeks...I know that last post shows a ton of cards, but honestly, those were mostly in January and February...I think I've found some mojo and got going again.

The first group of cards were made at a SU card making party at Tracy's March 20th.

Spring cleaning, and catching up the blog.

It's been awhile since I've posted and I have made a bunch of cards since Christmas.  A few I have posted, but there are many not entered here and I want to save them in case I decide to make another one or two or tweak the ideas.  Not that I have any dearth of ideas with the OWH website and the OWH FB page, and all those magazines I get and have saved.  :)

So here, goes.





These 4 were made at one of Tracy's card making parties (probably the November one, as we did not meet in Dec).  She is my SU dealer.  (hee hee)

Wrangling scraps and OWH Sketch #214

Sunday's sketch just got my creative juices flowing...or maybe it was that 2nd cup of coffee.  But I grabbed a couple of the 6x6 pads I have been hoarding and decided to cut into them.  It doesn't hurt after the first incision.  And then I went nuts and made probably 20-25 cards using this sketch.  Fun, fun, fun.  Here are some that will be going to OWH and a bunch of them are going in my card drawer so I have cards on hand to send to friends and family when an occasion arises.

Who's idea was it to use up scraps?  Great idea!  And Debbie Doty Caldwell gave me another great idea she CASE'd.  I think I'll steal that one too.  :)
