that you have made and posted in your gallery? I enjoyed the thread about our favorites so much, so I thought it might be interesting to see what is our least favorite and why. Mine is the one I just posted "Hoppy Birthday". I just wanted to rip it up and throw it in the trash, but I made it for a 7 year old and am sending it anyway. :p
I have a love/hate thing going on with Brilliance ink. Sometimes it works so great with my Copic's and sometimes it smears. I gave up last night after heat setting it and came back to finish this morning and it STILL smeared. So I could do no shading and just tried to get my color on there the best I could without having to start over. My sewing was a total mess and my color combination's are really off. I cut the bow wrong so it doesn't look right either. My 4 year old twin boy's and 5 year old daughter would not leave me alone to do anything so I'm giving up for today. ;)

You silly woman, that card is adorable! We really are our own worst critics.
I rarely post cards that I don't like (which means a lot I make don't get posted, LOL!), but I did post this one asking for advice on how to fix it. Got some good advice!
I had fun with the sketch and colors, but afterwards, I didn't like the final product... and of course didn't have time to re-do it. (My MIL, by the way, really liked it, so I guess that's what counts!) I think on a different colored background I might like it better. It feels very elementary to me, like something a kid would put together. I definitely like my glittered & colored cards much better!
I have two that i really don't like and for some reason I just can't delete them from my gallery! lol
This is going to be a hard thread to leave comments for. What if you agree with the poster that it's your least favorite too? lol! what do you say, great color combo?
Here is mine. I worked so hard on it, and it turned out looking like a first grader made it! To make matters worse, it was for a swap. How humiliating!

i would hate if someone read my comment and thought that i didn't really like the card because i said 'great color combo'
a lot of times that IS what 'gets me' i am drawn to the color combo first i think. so anyone who gets a comment from me and i mention the colors... i DO really like it.

yea! or like...
yes i agree! that IS the most ugly one in your gallery! or maybe THIS one and then post a link to a different card in their gallery! LOL
but there are times i make a card that i just don't think it turned out as good as i thought it would and someone sees it and says WOW i love it! you just never know!
This was the like the first or second card I EVER made. I didn't know how to measure to make cards, so the card is smaller than it's supposed to be. I also think that it is to bright, the scanner didn't help any with that. Please be kind, lol.
What a great thread - if we can`t laugh at ourselves... ;)
And like an earlier post -- sometimes the ones we dislike are the ones that someone else loves!
So this is my least favourite (from the ones I have actually posted anyway).
Many more went straight under the `what was I thinking`category and into
the trash. Isn`t this the saddest little blossom bow you have ever seen -
I`ve tried to do them like 4hounds (hers are AMAZING) - but mine pale by
comparison!

Here is one that I am not happy with. I did it for a color challenge and I really do like the frog stamp that I used, but just not thrilled with how this card turned out. My coloring is awful and my brads are to close together. If it wasn't for the challenge, it would have been one of those "never posted" cards. :oops:CC172 Color challenge frogs by letmecrop at Splitcoaststampers
Since I got better at stamping, this has to be my worst one. I love this set, love it. But I have never ever figured out anything to do with it. To make matters worse I was sick when I made it, so it's probably even uglier than it needs to be. Things are bad! Send Chocolate by Skittl1321 at Splitcoaststampers
And to the OP- you're crazy, that card is adorable.
