Card Workshop

I wanted to try one of the new card workshops that is in the Wishes book. I did the Just Because Card Workshop. My cards are actually birthday cards that I needed desperately. It was pretty easy to do and I love how the cards turned out. I made 2 of each card for a total of 20.
Let me know what you think. I would appreciate any comments on the cards. I feel like some of them are missing something.

Artwork coming soon!

Hi! I know I haven't posted anything for awhile. I am hoping in the next few days I will get to create some cards from my new Wishes book!! I just can't decide what to make first!! If you don't have this book yet I would try to get one as soon as possible! Jeanette sure outdid herself on this one. My 5 year old daughter also had her tonsils and adnoids out so I have been a little busy being a mom/nurse/etc.! She has been a real trooper and seems to be coming along pretty good. We are hoping that she will be able to make her dance recital this weekend but its not looking too good. She is too afraid to eat anything so she gets tired out pretty fast. I have been trying to tempt her with yogurt, ice cream, noodles and slushies but she just shakes her head "no". She says that nothing tastes good. If you have any ideas I would sure love to hear them! Well I should be posting some cards this week/weekend. I have to get some batteries for my camera first. Have a great rest of the week!
