August Card Challenge *RAK* CLOSED

Ok, ladies...this is going to be very easy...I made a sketch and all you have to do is make a card that looks 'kinda' like the sketch.

You have all month to do this. Once again, you can make as many as you like, but your name will only be in the drawing once.  So, let's see what you do with ths sketch!!!

:thumbup: awesome sketch chickie
got a couple done up today ~ they *kinda* look like the sketch..right?







vellumx

Yes, they 'kinda' do...

You did an awesme job!!...thank you for taking the challenge...I'm going in my scraproom and making a card....!!! I have a fiskars circle punch and don't use it as much as I should.  your card reminded me to get it out of the drawer and use it..!!..

I love how you display your cards for photos...I really should do that.. :thumbup:
vellumx

here is my take on my own sketch..I wanted to use my circle fiskars punch...Now I know why I don't use it more often.....Not sure where I was going with this, but....

THose are lovely ladies...here's my take on it.  These are kind of masculine I think.  I made 2 exactly the same.  Just as easy to make 2 at a time.


vellumx

Oh Robin!!!..I love it!! and you followed the sketch almost to the 't'!!!..Awesome colors and I love that clip on there!!..I need to remember that placement...

Thank you for taking the challenge!!

This is a very versatile card sketch.  I made 2 more cards like this last night.
And BTW, my Michaels had these rub ons marked down to 39 cents a pkg. with 4 different butterflies in them...all pretty pastels and glittery.  The plaid is vellum, just doesn't photograph well.

beautiful robin..love those soft colors..and yummy butterfly and bling
vellumx

wow Robin, this is so pretty!!!...I'm glad you liked the sketch because you sure are making some awesome cards...Thank you!!

nathan's momma

okay, okay...i played along. you don't need to put me in the drawing. i just thought i'd give it a shot and see what i came up with.

vellumx

Paula, that is one cool Halloween card!!..How did you do the 'Boo'?...I love it!!

Thanks for taking the challenge and yes, your name will be in the 'hat'!!!

Don't talk back...  
nathan's momma

the boo was free-hand, beleive it or not! jsut a little squiggle when writing it.

and no roe, i won't argue, i won't win! you are the of arguing....

but thank you for the compliment. much appreciated. i'm not a good card maker. i've not had much experience, but it's fun!
vellumx

Paula, the only way to get experience is to do it!!..and, you are off to a good start because you did make a great card!!...

I love that BOO!!..Ok, I'll need to practice shaky...Normally, I try to not shake..whatch...I'll want the shake and I won't.....

for 'another' title...
nathan's momma

snoopy2

Well I am up and running again! You girls have done such a beautiful job on your cards. I would be proud to send these cards to my friends. GREAT JOB!!!
snoopy2

Here is my take on Roe's chalenge. I hate it when I work with scraps then don't have enough to make corrections.

vellumx

Oh Anna, that is so cute!!..well, for using scraps, you did good!!!..

Thanks for taking the challenge!!!
nathan's momma

great job anna. i love the bright fun colors you used!
~ melodyz ~

:thumbup: awesome card anna..yummy colors!
nathan's momma

alright...attempt #2



used all scraps for this one too. had a flower brad from a rak, thought it was perfect. wrapped fiber around the inside of card to hide the back of the brads.
vellumx

wow Paula!!..I love it!!..So cool how you did 'thankz'!! I know Mel would like that!!..

I love your cards and I'm so happy to see you making them!!

thank'z' for taking the challenge!!!
~ melodyz ~

roe ~ yep..that's the first thing i noticed was the spelling
awesome card paula..lovin that pp..so yummy and another great take
on the challenge..you go girl!
nathan's momma

i think the card making kinda keeps me in the scrapping mood without having to create an entire 12x12 page. i think this helps to do something diff every now and then. :thumbup:
vellumx

Paula, you hit on the 'secret' that I try to get across.  Cards are little mini layouts!!..

Also, doing the ATC is another way of creating something without it having to be a layout page.  Maybe you will give the ATC a try sometime!!!
vellumx

WOW!!!..I've been so busy, I forgot to get the winner drawn!!..

Ok, tonight I'll work on that!!
snoopy2

Can't wait!
