I've been away from the world of card challenges for a while. Life has gotten in the way... there was always something to do (or someone staying in my craft room / office / guest room) Life happens.
I've been getting creative lately with Valentines - but I was itching to stretch my creative muscles, and the best way that I know how to do that is to enter a 365 Card challenge. Seriously. I love 'em! So here they are...
365 Cards - Day 340 White Space
OK, my first day back, and I'm cheating already. I didn't mean to... my intention was to stick the dude on the centre of the card and call it a day, but little Rockin' Roger had other ideas. He clearly has star attitude, and demanded a back up band of 'heavy metal' and stars. I contend that, as a rocker, he's supposed to be a rebel, and the addition of embellishments behind him is too natural to be blamed on me. Blame Roger.
Simple dimple card, but for some reason it took me an age. I'm rusty... (too much rain in Vancouver)
Cuttlebug folder & dollar store dimensional sticker (did I mention that I'm the dollar store queen?) Cardstock is moldy oldie from the stash. I no longer remember who or where it came from.
Well, it is late, and I'm tired. Soooo glad it's the weekend! I will sleep 'til 8 (that's a luxurious sleep-in in my world), then I've got to make more Valentines. Seriously, those things are selling like hotcakes!! Yay! More money for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. I freakin' HATE cancer!!
G'night!

Yeah, that's a real CD behind the dude... I work for a software company, and we had some old releases that they were going to junk. Heck no! Card material!! I've got a ton of 'em!
Stamp is Sugar Nellie (coloured with Copics); DP is Basic Grey (Obscure); Metal mesh - dollar store (I'm the dollar store queen)
365 Cards - Let's Celebrate Use at least one sticker (check) & make it a birthday theme (check)
