My sister-in-law asked if I could make her some thank you cards. She is a golfer and has several sponsors that she'd like to thank. I love any excuse to make cards, so I was all about that. After I found a sketch, I examined my scrap box. (All of my scraps are stored in a single-yes, SINGLE-shoebox.) I've been trying to get the scraps contained for a while. Going off of OWH's scrap-wrangling and 6x6 tutorials, I set out to use up the scraps.
Here's the thank you cards (I made 2-3 of each):
Then I went a bit overboard on the scraps...
I just mailed a box of cards to OWH 2 weeks ago, but it looks like I'm about ready to mail another one.
This one's my favorite. Perfect for a guy (or maybe I'll give it to my sis-in-law as well).
This one's my hubby's favorite. He insisted that I feature it on here. The googly eyes and silly sentiment crack him up.
And lastly, because I loved this week's OWH sketch:
She is colored with water-based markers and a blending pen. That's my 1st try at the blender and I think it's alright. I'd love any tips if you've used blending pens before.
Thanks for visiting today!

Wow! All the cards are fantastic! I saw it on Make it Monday.
ReplyDeleteTerrific use of the sketch to spark your creativity - and good for you for using up so many scraps! I love the masculine "thank you" card too! Thanks, and thanks for inspiring me to a goal of 2 cards a week for OWH. I'm on vacation this week so I may get a couple of weeks ahead!
ReplyDeleteonly a shoebox!!! Wow I bow to you. I am so impressed with your cards you are simply awesome. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThese are great! I love your fav - but I have to agree with Hubby that googly eyes is way cute. I wouldn't have thought to put two different size eyes on the beasty. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful collection of cards, and especially the one chosen for this week's sketch inspiration! Congrats and keep up the great work for OWH!
ReplyDeleteWow, such a wonderful collection. I just love your sketch for this week's OWH challenge. Thanks for the inspiration!
