Here are my challenge file cards

I find it hard to do "guy" card so the camo card with the buck says thanks
It is using the herringbone technique (really fun to do) and cuttlebug folder for the background

the Salt and Peppers is a card for my daughter and future son-in-law - my sister in law is having a bbq for them and family so - inside it says You go together like salt and Pepper ... Congrats

the snowflake and deer - could be a christmas card or a thinking of you card or just a wintery note card. - The background is done by using a mini mister with blue ink and a plastic snowflake from the dollar store.

(took me a while to figure out how to upload the Pics - sorry)

Thank you for your submission, Ginger.

Beautiful cards! Is the paper on the first one pieced or is it printed like that! I love it!

the first two use scraps of paper - pieced onto cardstock covered with carpet tape - If Chris says it is ok I do have a link to a tutorial on how it was done.
after I finished it I put the whole thing in a cuttlebug embossing folder and embossed it - It is fun and uses up the 1/4" scraps left from cutting.

Yes Chris come and play - it is so fun and different combination of paper change the look

http://craftchaos.blogspot.com - look in the side panel for herringbone there is a video - as she says it gets quite addicting - Her name is Hetty and she is in the netherlands

Thank again for the challenge - the files cut like a dream- the deer I cut one that is 3 inches high

You are a great inspiration to us all, but don't let us have all the fun
