1, 2, 3 Create...

Hello Everyone!

I'm at least 'funcional' for a while. DD had an old IBM that she told me to try using while my machine is ka-put. It gets very hot very quick, so this will probably be very short.

It's another Magical Monday at There's Magic in the Air with Paper Cupcakes!

Olga Jewell is our hostess this week. She challenges us to: 1, 2, 3, Create! We are to use:

1 Acquired Paper Cupcakes Image, 2 Ribbons, and 3 buttons on our projects.

Since I couldn't participate last week, I used the image from last week's challenge, AND I used Kim's challenge of a non-traditional card, AND Olga's challenge for this week!

I was looking at the Scrap and Stamp Arts magazine last week, and saw this concept for a card. You cut about 2 5/8" of your card front to the fold line. The top half is then glued to the card back, and the bottom half swings open and shut. I thought it was a cute idea!





All coloring is done with colored pencils and LOMS. The DP is TAC's "More Mimi".

I apologize for the quality of the photos - the color is just awful on this screen, so I can't tell what it really looks like!

Hope all is well, and that you have a good weekend!!! Thanks for stopping by, and for being so patient with my down time! It will be at least a week before I have a machine again. We ordered DH a new laptop, and I'm to get his old one when the new one comes in.

Hugs to all!

Patti J.
