I would say an invitation is a kind of card.

Well.... I'm not usually a card maker, but I have been meaning to get two cards in the mail.... one as an encouragement to a friend battling brain cancer and another to a friend who just lost her mom to breast cancer. This challenge will be my "push" to actually get these done TODAY! I won't be posting big numbers, but even getting two done and in the mail is a big deal for me!......P

 

[pjlla]

Well.... I actually accomplished the two cards that I mentioned, plus two more!! I figured while I was on a roll I would make two more to send to these same friends in another couple of weeks.

Thanks so much for posting this challenge. It was just the push I needed! I will try to come over later and post photos of the cards.........P

 

[pjlla]

Whoops... double post. I will use this spot to post my photos in a few minutes......P

Okay....someone who is NOT having an extended blonde moment will have to help me! I haven't posted a photo in a while and I am having trouble remembering how! I have the pictures uploaded to Shutterfly and I know I need to cut and paste SOMETHING and then change it to an img, but for some reason I am drawing a blank here. When I right mouse click on the photo at Shutterfly, I am getting the options of...

Save image a
Copy image url
Copy image
Open image in new tab
Inspect element


None of these seem right. When I copy the image URL and then try to change to an IMG, I must be doing something wrong. Anyone want to help a blondie with a brain cramp??..........P

 

[ZeroToHero]

you don't have anything at the bottom of the pictures? Or if you just hover over them, and don't click, does anything appear? you want the "IMG" code one, it should be the third link.

Otherwise, the format is [ IMG ] link to photo, starting with http:// and ending with .jpg or .gif or something like that [ / IMG ]

You just have to get rid of all the spaces.

Okay.... so I am not totally brain dead. But either the change from Internet Explorer to Google Chrome threw me off, or something has changed at Shutterfly, because I never had this much trouble before! But anyhow, here you go.

They are both totally scraplifted from CK magazine, but that's okay with me! To give proper credit, DD took the beautiful picture of the honeysuckle. It is a beautiful picture IRL... it has rain drops hanging from the flower petals............P

Those look great! I love the scrappy cards! That actually just gave me an idea for Xmas cards...

I love making cards!!!

This weekend I made 122 Holiday cards and 44 other cards. Now keep in mind that's not a normal weekend, I went to a crop all day on Saturday.

That's a few from this weekend.

BAMB - let me know what you need!!

Beautiful! Love the alcohol inks!

My girls and I did 32 Christmas cards for soldiers and 16 cards for Riley today.

 

[vanyel]

Great cards everyone. Love the ideas too!

 

[123SA]

I forgot about this challenge!

I made 16 of these to send to DH's unit

And I made 2 of these to send to my sister and my friend who love this series of books. Can anyone help with the inside? I don't know the story -- I keep thinking if Buzz Lightyear was on the cover I could just write "To infinity and Beyond!" and be done with it - -is there some one liner like that I could use?

 

[morgansmom2000]

Susan, those Christmas cards are great!

Edward Cullen, yum...Let me see what I can find about them.

 

[morgansmom2000]

Okay, I found this one...

"What if I'm not a superhero? What if I'm the bad guy?"

 

[ZeroToHero]

Let's see... the one I thought of was:

"And so the lion fell in love with the lamb."

and then there's

"Do I dazzle you?"

...Fangirls are creepy - the website I found this on - yeesh!

LOL, I'm a fan, but I'm not creepy. I found a WHOLE freakin' website with quotes on it from the books (um, just read the books!).
