Create-A-Card


CardzTV is having a challenge...it's to create a card using any technique...
This is like a double challenge...first is to create a card BUT
the other challenge is NOT to use cricut machine..."OUCH" I can't ever think of not using my cricut BUT I did it...
It's somewhat a simple card...I tore lots of paper...
I used beige construction paper and inked it with Walnut Ink it Up...
Two circle punch and a paper punch...VOILA my card and no cricut....WOW that wasn't so bad...
Check out Mary's blog at...
http://cardztv.blogspot.com/
You have until October 6th to do your card and post it...
She'll announce a winner on October 7th...
Good Luck to everyone...

Tag Challenge


Paper Cutz Challenge #58 is to make a card or a project using a tag...
Mine is using a empty roll of toilet paper...I cover the roll with leftover
paper that I had in my stash..I made it as a birthday with the tag sliding into the roll....I just added embellishment and voila a cost to nothing tag project..this could be added to a card but it's a little bulky...
