When I make a card I like, I usually end up making a few of them. I was happy with how the card for the Ocean’s Eleven challenge turned out so I decided to make some for Easter.
Sometimes though, I do really “silly” things. I had all the cards done and standing on the counter in the popped up position. I thought they needed something more so I stamped a bunch of birds and mounted them on the popped up part of the card with some SU dimentionals. I had all eight mounted when I realized that while they looked great, I wouldn’t be able to slide the cards back down because of the birds. Duh, duh, duh! I ended up having to remove all the birds and mounted them on the base of the card. I love SU’s adhesive remover!
If anyone is looking for some inspiration check out the “Surfin Ocean’s Eleven” bloggers. The list is on the right hand side of my blog. They really are a talented group of ladies and are a super nice group as well.
Have a great one.
