This is the card I made for today's ways to use it challenge. We were challenged to make a card using office supplies!
This is my story!
1. I have bought alot of cool office supplies thinking...Ooh! I could use this someday! I know I have stuff, cool stuff....but where is it?
2. After about 30 minutes of looking for that cool office supply stuff I found a big ole jar of colored rubberbands that I thought were pretty one day while standing in the office supply store!
3. Well, I have missed a whole lot of challenges and in trying to get back into doing them, I am reminded that challenges make me make goofy cards! Really Goofy cards!
4. A flower and butterfly made out of rubberbands? Oh brudder! Well, I won't be buzzed by anyone at least! Snort! Oh, and by the way, after I got this card done I found this little collection of cool office supply stuff in a plastic divider box thingy! Oh well...next time....
Edit: Please pm me if you know who put my bow on upside down!!

Cindy, I love your goofy cards. Remember the acrylic nails card? What a great idea to use the rubberbands. You'll have to do a tutorial on how you made your flower. I needed this sentiment stamp yesterday. I really like the embossed flowers on the corner. SNUFFS!!

Rubber-bands, are you kidding me? I thought it was quilling! How clever are you! What a super idea, and so perfectly done. Ahem, and nobody noticed the upside down ribbon!!!!!

Ok, this seriously made me laugh out loud!! It is so brilliant! Who would think of this creative idea, except you?? We all take the easy way out, but you go out of the box! WAY out! LOL
I think the ribbon looks cool that way - more like the butterfly!
And we thought we only worked with RUBBER stamps!!
I am glad your imagination was *stretched* to create such a fun (and pretty) card. Like some of the other gals, I thought *quilling* when I saw the thumbnail. I've got some purple rubberbands waiting to find their way onto cards.
I love your rubber bands. They are cool, but the coolest thing is how creatively you used them on this card. It's adorable! I do need to make it clear, though, that I am NOT responsible for the upside down bow!!! It just adds to the creativity of the card.
