Everyone's cards are beautiful!

Thanks Dana...you gonna play?

I have not had time to make any cards at all... I went on vacation right after this started, and I've been working over 11 hours a day since I got back... so no time to play.
I love seeing what every one else is doing... it does give me some ideas... I need to get started on my cards before things at work get even worse.

We don't actually have to submit 2 cards, items per week to be eligible for your prize do we? I truly need motivation sometimes, and if that is the case, then I have already lost my motivation!!

Thanks Dana...you gonna play?

I'd love to, but I'm not sure that I can commit to 2 cards a week right now. I have some personal stuff going on right now that I need to overcome first. Thanks for asking, but I will enjoy looking at everyone else s cards!

Great idea btw!

Rules were changed...just play along, no minimum and doesn't even have to be cards! it will make you feel better...promise!

Well since you lowered the numbers I will play along. Mine are only the tops as the Paper I am mounting them on has not yet arrived but they will only have a small boarder of black showing around them plain so it will not affect the look much...

I am doing all the basic same design, but the coloring is different on each one so they are the same but not quite.

A few more...

Very nice cards!

Ok, here goes...................

First of all, everyone's cards are so wonderful, and they do inspire me at least even if they don't motivate me....

But, I do have 2 cards to post. One is a Welcome baby card for my new grand nephew. The other is a birthday card for dh. I have always called him Sweetie Pie. And he loves pie. So, I often make him a pie for his birthday. This year he got a pie card and a real pie!

[Retta]

Great Cards Ladies!!!

[Gigi]

GREAT cards !!! I hope to have a few to post later - they aren't Christmas but they needed to get done!!! I am with you CeCe - so many I have to do - cannot even think Christmas ...yet! And my motivation has definitely been hiding, but now the pressure is on!!

[Retta]

"The race is on and here come Gigi up the back stretch, CeCe going to the middle. . ." Sorry it just popped out of my mouth!!! LOL

[LisaH]

Awesome cards, Ladies!!! Glad you are playing along

[PennyDuncan]

Oh I love all of those!!!!!! AWESOME job ladies!!!

[Elizabeth]

Love them both, CeCe! The colors on the baby card are so nice for a baby boy, and the crimping on the edge of the pie is just terrific!

(LOL on the horserace, Retta!)

Here is my entry for the week. I made these little matchboxes to hold gift tags. I made them for my Mom and MIL, and will include them in the gift bags stuffed with fun little Christmas things that I give them each year instead of a stocking.

The box is from the Pretty Packaging set from MyGrafico. I resized it, and added score lines.
