Hello friends! :) I was just sorting through my box of completed cards and realized how much I've grown as a cardmaker. And how some of my older cards need a redo! *LOL*
I'm re-evaluating my card-making strategy though...a box full of completed cards.... yet when I need one, I almost always can't find a suitable one in my stash to mail out. And end up having to make a new one....so much for being ahead in the game! :)
Supplies: Patterned papers by Graphic 45, green trim by Webster's Pages, Ranger Distress Ink, button, burlap, swirly chipboard, wrinkle ribbon.
P/s: Don't forget about my guest Mel's layered challenge...it ends on Friday! :)

Love it! I know what you mean about not having the right card. Sae thing on my front most of the time.
I intended to enter this challenge but have loads of stuff to do already.I like your take on the challenge....an ecletic mixture of rustic and vintage
Great take on the sketch Yvonne.. The bursts of colour kinda makes it eye catching... !!
I love it!!! I totally understand what you mean about the box full of cards. Love this Graphic 45 paper (I have it and it's somewhere in that pile I call my craft desk).
Lovely card! I am also in the same boat as you. A stack of cards lying with me, and when I see my old cards, I feel I can do something more with them :)
Cheers,

really liked your card nice shabby chic feel to it,liked that burlap layering very pretty card.
This is gorgeous! I too have so many cards stuffed in a draw and whenever I want to send something out, nothing seems right!
I thought the layered challenge was for LO's only?
Love this card! The chipboard swirl and the buttons compliment the sweet picture beautifully!
this is gorgeous!
It is really funny how our styles change and evolve in short periods of time... I just sent a huge envelop of cards away to my mom to use that I hadn't!

P/S: My goodfriend stole my box of cards!!!! How lucky HE!!!... :(
Such a cute card! Love how you framed out the image, very eye catching!
This is loely Yvonne! MIne are almost finished!! Yes I don't know how to make cards "more versatile" so that we have the perfect one for the occassion - as you say it's near impossible!
I always like your style and creation Yvonne and this one is stunning too.
me, too! its amazing how i never have the "right" card! love the image on this sweet card, yvonne!
love the card especially that chipboard flourish. Only one box of cards? I have five of those photo boxes full of them. I usually give them away as Christmas gifts to my 3 sisters and 4 sister-in-laws.
I loveeeeeeeeeeeeee this! I loveeeeeeeee the Graphic 45 line and loving the burlap!! :):):):):):):):):):)
nice card Yvonne!
Cool card. Would love to know some of your process on how you will re=evaluate your card making process. What goes behind that such creative head of yours? I also have too many cards on hand. Think I need to slow down or something.
Wow! This is fantastic! I absolutely love everything about this! The swirl is perfect for blending the two sections together. Looks fab!
Haha... that sounds familiar!
And I love this one, love that you combine burlap with the Pixie collection from G45! Lovely card! Mail this out!!!!

hehe.. and I though I was the only one doing that! ;)
Gorgeous and very artistic. Love this Yvonne. :)

What a beaut! The burlap/ kraft look amazing! I know what you mean about the cards - sometimes I use or write a sentiment that's truly unique. So it's harder to use!
Awesome!!! What a fantastic image. Soooo sweet and magical. And burlap. I need to get me some burlap. I'm always awwwwing when you use it. Looks sooooo great!!!
OMG! I LOVE! The organic and vintage feel of your card is wonderful. Melanie
Cute, cute, cute! Love the texture of the burlap here and love that Graphic45 image. :)
Lol, we have the same the 'problem'! I do have a box full of cards but none were good enough to mail out. Funny right? Love, love the use of burlap on this card! I wonder where I can get burlap here.
