I participating in a CC card challenge similar to one here. On top of making a certain amount of cards each month, I've been issuing and extra challenge that folks can accept if they wish.
There were 2 challenges for April -
1) Use a tool, or item that you've had hiding somewhere, or haven't used in a long time.
2) Use a shape other than a traditional rectangular card
So - I made 5 "ornament cards," and 1 "tree card" (I ran out of time to make 5 like I planned, but I will make the other 4 soon)
Ornament cards - I used my Fiskars shape cutter and my SU! Tab punch, both items I haven't used in awhile.
As you can see, I used my new favorite embellishment, stickles, a lot!
On the tree card - I saw some of these online last fall, and the woman kindly sent me her template.
However, I didn't end up making them for last Xmas, but they seemed ideal for this challenge.
This is the one I got almost finished.
The most amazing part of it - My boyfriend actually commented on it, he liked it a lot. Usually, he just smiles and nods at my crafty stuff.
