Time Out #141

Here's the theme for this week's Time Out challenge.

I'm not a big relaxer.  I can't sit still for long although I have been known to sit in the swing by the lake for quite a while.  One thing does relax me, or at least time flies when I'm doing it, and that is stamping and coloring. 

I used the Hero Arts monthly kit to stamp all over my card and color with PolyChromos pencils.  That sentiment is so true, at least for me, and I suspect for a lot of you.

Thanks for dropping by.  I hope you have a relaxing week.

AAA Cards #140

AAA Cards is a CAS challenge and they are giving us prompts to cement that idea in our minds.  I am generally a rather clean and simple card maker which is on the opposite spectrum from where I started.  Sometimes I think I'm too CAS but better too little than too much IMHO.  Here's my card for this challenge that asks us to use 1/3 of our card with the option of bright colors.  You know I used the option. ;)

I don't often buy kits because I don't need all the 'extras' that come with them but when I saw the Hero Arts kit this month I knew I needed it to send cards to all my crafty friends.  I colored the images with Zigs, die cut them and spent way too much time deciding how to arrange them.

Thanks for dropping by.  I hope making stuff makes you happy.
