365 Cards and Phindy's Place Challenge

I am betting you thought I took a day off from 365 Cards. Nope. This card took me a while to do. This was called setting the scene. So not only did have to make a scene on the outside but it had to set the stage for what was going on inside the card. This took some work. Placement of the window, making the siding on the outside. This card was work and several hit the trash before this one finally hit the finished pile. :) The kittens inside is a Phindy's Place Image which fits their Christmas challenge for the week

Phindy's Fancy Folds #2

I got my challenge card for Phindy's Challenge Blog done so quickly they said I ought to be able to get the max of 3 done. Well you would have thought. Than I got asked to be on a Design Team and I thought just getting a second one done was going to be impossible. But it wasn't. I have seen easel cards and loved them...thinking I could never do that. Well I am learning never say never. Cause I can and I did. This is one of my favorite Phindy images and I have used it several times. Now that I know how easy the easel is, you will see more of them. :)

Phindy's Place Weekly Challenge

I am not going to lie. This week's challenge over at Phindy's Place Challenge Blog had scared me and I had planned on not doing it. But this morning I learned that Phindy's Place was part of a group called Paper Craft Planet which is a collect of groups that have their own challenges, chats, etc. I became a member of both PCP and PP and chatted with a wonderful group of ladies.

I don't recall who it was, but someone suggested I Google Fancy Folds and watch some videos and I just might be surprised at how easy Fancy Folded cards could be. Well, when I am wrong I admit it. And I was WRONG!! I made this card using Phindy's Miss Chrissy Tree, which I adore and what's called a spring card. It lays flat in and envelope and when you take it out it springs up.

Then I was reminded we can entered the challenge up to 3 times. :) Guess I am going to Google some more tomorrow...oppps later today :)
