Well, maybe it was the holiday weekend in Germany (the third this month already... can you say lucky?) but something moved me to create cards for this year's Gallery Idol competition over at Paper Crafts. I'm not expecting anything out of it, but it's kinda like the challenge of all challenges in my book. And as a wise man once said, it's all about the journey, not the destination. Get your thinking cap on and give it a go too!
The theme for the Open Auditions is "Birthday Cards for Teens and Kids". Now that is truly challenging for me. Introducing "for-a-four-year-old-in-primary-colors":
The mug in the mirror - moi! Just add a "9" to the "4" and it'd be true. Playing in the Birthday challenge #13 at Addicted to CAS and the Clean Up Your Act challenge over at A Blog Named Hero.
Thanks for visiting and stay safe.
Supplies look who's 4:
Paper: CS Bringmann, mirror card
Stamps: Stampendous
Ink: J Versafine
Tools: square punch EKS, die Memory Box
Other: sticker Lego
Way to go, Maria!! I like this card a lot and I hope that you will get in! Good luck!

ReplyDeleteYep, that storm was crazy.
We had violent rain in Chicago and 45 minutes later it was all over...
WE're all in shock about the poor people in OK
I love your card and how graphic and C&S it is!
