Cards for Monday, November 12, 2018

Here are the cards we will be doing Monday night, 11/12... the first card uses several stamp sets (some retired) along with die cuts in a different way.  Hopefully encouraging to think "outside the box"!  The second card is "the impossible card"...  the card itself is made from a 4-1/4 x 5-1/2" piece of cardstock. The Santa would probably look better paper-pieced, but I didn't have time to do over.  Will think about how to make it better before Monday!

Halloween Layout... optional for October 29th...

Sorry... thought I posted this page... must not have saved it.  Arghhhh!

This Monday is "bring your own project", or you may choose to complete these cards...

This first card if from the Holiday Sparkle Cut Above Card Kit that is available while supplies last or until October 31, whichever comes first.  I thought it might be fun to try out the new shaker windows.  I did one of the cards from the kit... you may choose either of the 2 in the kit.  There will also be some options available to make changes to the card.
