Totally 4 Troops Cards

I was hoping to post these pictures last night but some how I got distracted with moving photos from one computer to another and then organizing and uploading to Costco so that I can back them up.  I would up not going to sleep until 1:00 AM only to be woken up by my 8 year old son to go work out at 6:00AM!  That was rough!

Anyways,  I wanted to share the cards that a few friends and I made last Friday for Totally 4 Troops.  We weren't quite as productive as I had originally hoped but we did have a great time!  We finished about 100 cards and have about 50 that just need to be embellished. 

I tried to make most of my cards in groups of 6 - 18 in the interest of productivity, but some of the ladies were really great about creating 1 at a time to use up scraps.  We used SU! stamps for all of the sentiments, and we used my older DCWV patterned paper stacks as the background paper.  My goal is to clear out all of my older DCWV stacks from my stash with the endevour!

Happy crafting!

The Paper Player Sketch Challenge #61

Summer is coming to an end I'm finally getting the chaos that is my life under control!  I have so many projects from overthe summer to share with you, but for today I'm going to start with a card that I created while cleaning up my desk this evening.  Earlier this week I happened upon this fabulous blog that inspired my card today!  So here it is, my card for The Paper PlayersSketch Challenge #61

The flower on the card was a make & take that I made at the Scrapbook Expo in Puyallup last month.  I feel terrible that I dont remember what booth it was at:(  I remeber that I felt terrible for them because everyone kept asking about the die for the flowers, which they don't sell, and the point of the make & take was to demonstrate their glitter.  Other supplies: SU! Crumb Cake card stock, SU! Not Quite Navy Cardstock, VersaMark Ink Pad, SU! edge distresser, & SU! lace

Thanks for stopping by,
