in Florida last month,
I think I may have over-emphasized
using EVERYTHING
Two of my
went to their hotel on Saturday night
and came back with some special gifts for me...
that they'd saved from Sunday breakfast.
Hmmmm.
Can you pick out what they brought me?
So...I came home and used their wonderful gifts!
Guess who's getting a hand made card in the mail?
Create Your Life...
annie!
I'm linking to another new-to-me blog...Craft Envy
Ha ha ha! clever women!! Love these cards....those stitched hearts are wonderful.
ReplyDelete:) Insert Big Smile. Thank you Kelly!
Deletebeautiful work, the gift, is it the beautiful threads, worked in tassels and hearts, beautiful photos,
ReplyDeleteThank you Laurie! Nope! The gifts were the wrappers from their jelly, yogurt and fruit cups!!! Now you know why they're 'smart alec' cards. The threads were free motion stitched on by yours truly and the tassels are just more stitching. The hearts were made of paper with a little tulle on top. I know you have a difficult time with your eyesight...so you might need a magnifier to see the 'gifts'. Mwah!
DeleteToo cute, love the smart alec cards...I will have to check out this new craft blog too! xox
ReplyDeleteThank you Corrine! There are lots of links to linky parties there! Have fun!
DeleteAh, they have foolishly dared your creativity! These are great trash to treasures cards. what a perfect name for them too.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Thank you Annie. :) They are both EXtremely creative women and totally expected me to do something with their trash! Besides throw it away that is.
DeleteSo cool of you to use your friends breakfast fodder for cards! Interesting pictures too!
ReplyDeleteLOL...they told me they'd licked them clean...so why not? HA! Thanks Robin

DeleteYour works are beautiful! I don't know too much about quilting, but I never seen artistic way of using breakfast fodders like this :) Love your card!
ReplyDelete:) Thank you! It was a direct challenge from my friends...or at least I think so...and they knew I couldn't resist!

Delete(But sometimes...it just gets ridiculous)!
Did they save the jelly packets? I love the art you made with the elements. You are so very clever.
