CSSC143 - Thinking of You Times Two: Crafty Secrets

kiddielitter · 10-26-2010, 05:08 AM

Good morning & welcome to this week's Crafty Secrets challenge!

This week we are going to make two cards/projects. There are so many people around us who could use a little extra encouragement, something to make them smile. So make a card for someone you know who could use a little lift, then (and here's the twist!) before you clean off your work space, use some of the same supplies from the first card to make a second card for the Hope You Can Cling To campaign.

Here are my samples:

Thinking of You Times Two - Both Cards

Here is a link to this week's gallery:

Grab your Crafty Secrets stuff & come play with us! Make sure you use CSSC143 and craftysecrets in your keywords when you upload your projects, and post a link in this thread to them, so we can admire your work.

Have fun!

Good morning, ladies! What a lovely idea, Marcy! I'll get my brain in gear.....(that seems to be a tough thing this morning!)

I got that we were going to make 2 cards and figured we were sending the second one somewhere, BUT, I've gone to the info site and can't figure out where we send the one for the Hope You Can Cling campaign.
Cheers, Elizabeth

Thanks Marcy! You will see I have TWO different entries for today's challenge. I had already made the "TOY" journal for Maria and put it in the mail when you threw in the TWIST ... an awesome twist I might add ... so I have inlaid an image of the card onto the photo of the journal ... and also uploaded a separate photo of my card.

Here's the CARD AND JOURNAL

and HERE'S THE CARD

AWESOME challenge idea Marcy ... thanks for your kindness!!

I am going to do this challenge but my week is horribly tight for time. By Sunday I will have time to craft so I'll be back.

Well.. I was kind of on the right track in my head after all.. Will check out the link but will have to play along another time since I have come down with the flu and my head aches constantly. Enjoy the challenge!

Hello my Crafty Secrets friends. Hope your Halloween is a fantastic one

I was struggling with my picture size and couldn't figure out how to keep my file size small enough..so I linked to my blog.
