So blogs have this handy feature in which you can "postdate" your posts. Well, since I didn't want to go for days and weeks without posting anything, I decided to dig up some older cards and prep them to post automatically. I have about 8 cards that I've picked out to post keep you all from forgetting all about me while I take care of the kids' birthday parties.
Since SAB just ended, I thought I'd post this card I made for SAB 2007. This is one of my favorite cards. I loved the DSP on this and was sad when it retired. I got the layout form one of the sketch challenges on SCS. If you can believe it, I made this for a swap. If I am recalling right, I made 20 of these. Yeah, call me crazy! Check out the layering on this card for each rectangle. There are 13 pieces. Two of the pieces have distressing. Then I had to lay all these pieces out with perfect alignment. Not to mention the ribbon I tied on there! Yeah, I know, poor me! *wink*
Here's the recipe for this card:
Stamps: So Very
Cardstock: Brocade Blue, Certainly Celery, Naturals White
Ink: Brocade Blue
Designer Series Paper: Rebecca
Ribbon: Certainly Celery Grosgrain
Accessories: Pop Dot
Tools: Distresser Tool, Circle Punches, Crop-A-Dile

Enjoy!
