One-Layer Wednesday 133: Shapes Galore

First I want to say HELLO to a new member - 

ANGEL


joined my blog. Unfortunately I can not find a blog, so I can't link her. But I am always happy when somebody new joins in here - I hope you keep liking what you find here. And as is customary for my blog I have a thank you picture for you:


I was at the Liberty Arts Science center with my son and friends and on the way to the parking lot we saw those bronze plaques in the sidewalk. They were commissioned by the NJ Transit Authority. I thought they were really pretty. And my welcome picture in a way also fits the card challenge I made this card for...

  --X--

Shapes Galore - that is the theme at OWL this week. I always love polka dots - and rainbow colors - they never fail.




The card looks really simple, but it was not. Most of the time I do one try and that's it, but this one - I think I did 5 - first I had different colors and lining up the stamp was a pain.  Most of the time I just did not manage to align the stamp accurately, despite the Stamp-a-ma-jig. I almost gave up....this was my last attempt. I  really like it. The sentiment is Hero Arts Heart Felt Messages (Cl150).

Great job - it would take me at least five times to stamp that pretty rainbow of polka dots, too!
Happy Easter to you!

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
