VMAA Challenge "Weekend Bonus"


I love to see Spring bulbs pop up outside, so when the weekend comes I like to be out and playing in the dirt. I recently uncovered all my tulip, daffodil, hyacinth and crocus buds only to have it SNOW on Friday night/Saturday morning! I really hope that they aren't too damaged. Why oh why does it have to snow at the end of April??? I am trying to console myself that even if I don't get as many Spring blooms I still have summer to look forward to! I'll have to plant and Endless Summer Hydrangea in hopes that Mother Nature pays attention to the name!




VMAA Challenge "Saturday Night Fever!"




I must have been getting a little slap happy and uber silly by this card. I had two options for my image picked out. The birdcage or the slip....so I went girly again and added ribbon and glitter to boot! I was already covered in glitter so why not play some more! I had so many naughty sentiments running through my mind, it is a good thing that I will have to keep them to the inside of the card. I think that the card reminds me of a "little black book" too!


This first picture is a bit blurry, and the second one is more of a close up.....

VMAA Challenge "Do The Hustle"


I took a little break on this card to dance around! But then I got down to business. I needed to make a thank you card and I had stayed away from my embellishments for too long. This card has ribbon, brads, prima flowers and I am sure glitter by default! Oh and the color pink, carried over from the previous challenge!


VMAA Challenge "Disco Ball"


Time to break out the GLITTER! I had a lot of fun trying to incorporate the simplicity of the previous challenge of letting the image be really strong and also utilizing glitter!

I had just read a quote that "Men aren't the only ones who need something beautiful on their arm."

VMAA Challenge "Let it Be"


Whisper words of wisdom, Let it be!


Finally posting my cards from last nights VMAA, which was so much fun!


The first challenge was to let the image speak for itself, no embelishments. I decided to start my cold April night off with a cup of good cheer!
