Well, my paint isn't dry on the project I need to finish, so why not work on a fun one while I wait :)

Here's the inspiration-

Holiday Card Workshop Homework - Day 1

My addiction to Online Card Classes continues.  I'm currently taking the 2013 Holiday Card Workshop.

Day 1 focused on different ideas for the insides of cards.  This one used a different fold with a hidden greeting inside.

I love it (that Savvy Stamps Partridge always makes me happy), but it seems like it needs a little something else.

I'll have to put it aside for a bit and look at it again to figure it out.

Sweet Elephant Baby Card

I made this card for a recent submission.  It wasn't chosen for publication, but it is one of my new favorites anyway.

 The background is birch paper stamped with the dauber of Distress Paint in Picked Raspberry.

Serious cuteness :)
