Default ArgH!! have you ever worked hours on a card and then thrown it out
I just got my retired On Gossamers Wings and did one card then tried a new technique on another...not even gonna go there...I was going to be amazing...instead...it is cut up and in the trash...I tried to save it by cutting out the elements that were still worth saving...to no avail:twisted:

Oh well...it was just a card...I can make another.

Blessings

Cie..thanks for letting me vent.

Yep, more than a few times. No gain without the pain.

I'm the same way. I take an insane amount of time to make one card. It really annoys me sometimes.

I did this just the other day. Sometimes I think I just don't know when to stop creating and the card becomes too busy.

Oh my gosh, you are singing my song! Usually on my second try or sometimes my third I've got it where I want it!

yep, all the time...I try to salvage what I can, and then maybe use on something else down the line.
