I did it again - the 10-minute Craft Dash. And I made it before my timer went off. Barely. 12 seconds left! And I had to go back and glue some blooms on better with stronger-than-Glossy-Accents glue cuz I guess it doesn't work between fabric and paper, but I'm not counting that.
Needed gifts for kids I tutor who made their confirmation. Wanted to include a motivational quote and personalize store-bought journals for each of them. When I saw the Craft Dash colors I decided to challenge myself on this girly one. I had the sentiment ready to go and I pulled the papers and my flower punches as well as the tiny alpha stickers ahead of time. Keeping with the notecard theme I included some washi but probably shouldn't have. In glueing down the flowers I aimed to put pink across from pink and blue across from blue but I probably could have done a better job. Oh well. Time pressure stinks, but it gets things done much quicker I must admit. Could probably have spent 10 minutes just re-arranging blooms!
Give the Craft Dash a go if you haven't before. It's definitely challenging but you feel good when you're done. And there's always a great prize.
Thanks for visiting.
