There's a new challenge called Card Concepts that features a variety of styles.

I feel blessed that you are a good blogging friend who visits me so faithfully. And for what it's worth, I'm incredibly impressed with your CAS creations!!

Well said, Bobby! It's a pleasure to have met you in my own journey. <br /><br />I wonder if you would like to play around in the new challenge blog called The Card Concept that Ardyth is a part of and so many other card artists you know. It's really interesting how they are setting up these categories of styles which I think will help people identify their own style or step outside their personal comfort zone with styles.<br /><br />BTW, your cards on these posts are fabulous, too. I know you said you think your style is not defined, but I'm pretty sure I'm getting to where I coud pick out a "Bobby" card! Keep on exploring and creating!

My style has changed over time and I often start thinking in one style and finish doing something entirely different. Love the journey. And your blog.

There's always a person in mind when I hit the craft room. I will admit to making some cards with layers or 3-D elements, but only if I can hand deliver them, or if they fit into a box along with a gift. Your card here is beautiful. I think you've nailed the colors and feel of the mittens perfectly, and taken it to a new level. Great card Bobby.

I love hearing your thoughts Bobby and I smiled when you don't make cards that won't be sent. My stash is rarely full as I love to send my cards. Your distress inking on your card is gorgeous! xoxoLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02370979804209116151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605639057309726994.post-19648868536744352452014-01-08T18:40:51.901-05:002014-01-08T18:40:51.901-05:00Such a wonderful community, you are right.

I have to tell you that I never really noticed that you didn't stamp much, until you said something. I have always appreciated your cards--they are so well designed that they always 'work' without making me think about what you did or did not use. Make sense? (P.S--it's a compliment) This card is especially warm.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00628064051832366762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605639057309726994.post-77069260300052034812014-01-08T11:51:24.056-05:002014-01-08T11:51:24.056-05:00You know yourself well - make what you like and wh...You know yourself well - make what you like and what makes you happy.
