playing catch up ...
I don't know where the last two weeks have gone! Time is passing SO fast! So ... I'm playing a little catch up today and posting (finally!) my cards from VMAA Two! (If you're not familiar with VMAA, check out the A Muse Addicts site for the details!) It was such a fun night ... thanks to Geeta, Michelle, Jennie, and Rhonda for hosting another great evening of stamping and fun!
challenge number one - use no embellishments
challenge number two - glitter
challenge number three - sketch challenge
challenge number four - black and white 
I know, I know. It was April and I was already using Halloween stamps?! Well, sure! I LOVE Halloween and rarely ever just get to PLAY with my Halloween pretties, so this was the perfect chance! And I was SO excited to get to the shop and see that I could use the new 4bar orange kitchen notecards (which I used for the glitter challenge)!
I turned the webcam on my laptop on during the event, but it was so chaotic I barely had time to stamp, much less chat! *laugh* But I tried to check in as I could. =)
I'm already looking forward to the next VMAA!

And ... I haven't been able to play the past few weeks, but Mom and I both did her challenge together this week! The challenge was to make a 12x12 layout with 16 squares! I REALLY liked this challenge! It was right up my alley and a lot of fun! Here's the layout I did!
Ok ... I *THINK* I'm all caught up now! *wink*



really cute cards!! it was fun having your web cam on during VMAA Heather!!! I love Boris, and find every opportunity to use him, regardless of it being halloween!!!! LOL!
