** VSN 05/05 ** 7:30 Challenge: You Used What?
OK Ladies Here it is. Use something you would never imagine using to embellish your card. It can be from any room in the house, the garage, the yard, or wherever you find something interesting. Remember to use VSN7:30 when you post your card. Have fun.
I have looked at some of your cards and am amazed. I have to be gone all day and will not be back until late tonight. I will not announce winners until then. Have a good day.

nonono aubrey! I have had this embellishment WAITING! I FLIPPED when I saw this at Target and was seriously about to do a cartwheel in the aisle! I just finished my cards(emily is stamping now, I'm computering, we rotate stations ;))
These are way lame on the stamping end... but these embellishments were PERFECT!!

This one is hard! I'm not very good at thinking out of the box. I was considering using a pantyliner, but then I thought, Ewwwww! So, I used a band-aid instead. Not too purty, but then there's nothing attractive about a broken heart is there?
Mine's still pending!

MamaK must be rubbing off on me. :p

This is funny because I didn't know what I was going to do with the Allen Wrenches at first...but then I had this cool idea to use them as a gate for sheep....well then the greeting became an issue...until I remembered that my brother just GOT 3 or 4 new sheep last week so I made it a congrats card! LOL...he would think I was a nut so I have to email it to him. It isn't something I would send in the mail because of the weight and the possibility of damage. DH said...what do you want allen wrenches for...so I told him...then he asked if I needed them permanently....ROFL...he had like 50 of the same size in a bucket in the garage. Check it out....

Here's mine......I used a CLEAR BAND-AID, DENTAL FLOSS, and SPARKLY NAIL POLISH. You can see the painted dental floss was wrapped around the tag. I used the sticky end of a clear band-aid with sparkly nail polish painted on it to stick over the word "laugh". It looks totally COOL in real life!
