Card Sharks II

First of all, I want to thank my dear friend Becca for being a genius at fixing the problem. She is incredible and I just want to send her kudos for coming to the rescue. I think I would have just went on hiatus if she hadn't figured out what was wrong. So for those of you who haven't given up on me, here's what I have been trying to post:

One of the things I've come to enjoy is making cards. The only thing is, I'm just not good at coming up with my own ideas. I love to steal ideas. It's the only way to go. Anyway, I decided to throw a "stamping" party for me and my crafty friends. I was surrounded by the divas of card-making and of course the queen herself, Irene Hirtle. It was crazy, because we don't get to see Irene, she decided to do 3 card kits with us...what a woman! Needless to say, we had to catch on quickly. All-in-all, it was a very productive evening.

This was the first project that we did. Some did Halloween, I did thanksgiving.

As you can see the concentration was fierce. There was a lot of creative juices flowing amongst us.

This was our next project. It so happens that daisies are one of my favorite flowers, so I was thrilled to do this one.

I loved making this card. Irene really did us proud with her choices in kits. The funny thing was, I did this one upside down. You'll probably get a look at it on Kathy's site or facebook. It was good for a laugh. However, all was not lost, I managed to salvage it.

As you can see, it was time well-spent!.

Kailey was the youngest member of our card-making evening. However, she had other plans for grandma besides card-making.

Of course what's a party without food? We managed to work up an appetite with all that hard work, lol. I think Kathy was contemplating her bed while Karen was thinking, just a little bit more, please. Thank you ladies, Irene, Ann, Kristine, Doreen, Lis, Kathy, Karen and Denise for such a fun and enjoyable evening. You're the best!
