What a fun website - but alas, when I tried, and tried and tried to stay awake last night, I just kept on falling asleep at the computer....so I kept on thinking about this image in my dreams last night:
And this morning, I justified the time thing since I am off to convention in a few weeks and have not STARTED on swap cards yet, with the fact that I could combine this challenge with designing a card for swapping at convention!! My aim was CAS, how did I do? When you are making 50 of them or so, you hate yourself after a while for every last detail you added, so I tried to keep it simple. That ribbon scallop border, oh yah, gonna hate myself for THAT one, but otherwise, pretty CAS, right? So, here it is, my sunflower swap card!! Happy Saturday everyone!!
