Default TLC83 - Waterfalls for fall

This week's challenge was suggested by Lisa/nmslmomto3. It is something I've always wanted to try myself, but haven't as of yet. Check out the resources page for the tutorial on Waterfall Cards.
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/re...erfallcard.php
When you add your card to the gallery, please choose the Waterfall category under Techniques (rather than by stamp set as we normally do). Don't forget to add TLC83 to the keyword sections. If you need help uploading, click on this link for helpful information:
http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/fo...hlight=gallery
If you have questions, please ask. If you have suggestions, please share!

I look forward to seeing all your creations!
As always, I am in search of suggestions for techniques for future TLCs! Please PM with suggestions and a link to the directions and/or a sample if you can. Thanks!
Have fun, my friends!

Good Challenge today. I made one of these not long after I found this website. I had just been stamping a couple of months. HERE IT IS. This was when I only had a few supplies. I hope my coloring has improves since then. I still have the directions printed out somewhere. TFL

Oh, haven't made one of these for awhile, either. Not sure if I'll have time today, but my suggestion for y'all: USE GOOD GLUE. I made one of these about a month before I needed it, and when I pulled it out to sign it, it fell apart and I had to reglue it.

I use mono multi on mine and they stay together GREAT! Do not use the mono adhesive or such like that, as they do not stay together as nicely!

I wish I had the new set Mix and Match. I bet those faces would be cute for a waterfall card. Still thinking which set I should use for it.

Well, here is my card. It was fun trying a waterfall card again. This is definitely not fall colors, though!

I've always been afraid to try one of these! Thought it would be too hard! Beate's sensational tutorial make it seem simple. Here is my first Waterfall Card:

This was fun. It took me two tried to get the gluing right, but I like the end result. Next time I will be a little more creative with it.

This is a fun challenge. I hope I will have time later to make a new one, maybe with a Fall theme. Here are a couple I previously made: Christmas

I had so much fun with the first one, I had to make another. I don't like this one as well. I ruined it because I went back and sponged around the background after I had already put the card together. I think I would have used different colors if I had it to do over. Oh well, here it is anyway:
