I've just gotten another addition to my stash of holographic paper and figure it's about time I do something with some of it. So here's what I did. This is for the Inspiration Challenge. I've never done a Link before so this should also be a challenge. I will do my best.
I love the effect of this star holographic paper. There doesn't seem to be any way I can capture the vast depth of the effect with a camera. Also the silver mirror CS used for the gulls comes across almost like gold. In real life this is a little more impressive. Wish I had the talent to replicate it in a photo.
Okay...I'm pretty sure my aging brain needs some assistance here. I've been in the process of uploading my card to my Gallery and adding it to the Inspiration Challenge, and went to the SCS explanation of how to add a Link. I get the Copy and Paste part, but the "go to your Gallery and click on the sample" has me confused. My "sample" is on the Wayfair website. And when I try the Cut and Paste stuff on the sample I've chosen as my inspiration on the Wayfair website I end up with a 23 foot long URL. Is that right? No one else's are that long in their descriptions.
Anyway, until someone can work with my brain and let me know what's what I will submit this as best I can. You will just be stuck with a 23 foot long URL. But then I'm thinking maybe the whole thing doesn't show up on my submission anyway."Whatever will be, will be". Getting old sucks.
And now I've just lost my inspiration piece that I thought I had saved. If I cut over to that website again I imagine I will lose what I've written so far and will have to start this all over AGAIN. This is my third time writing all this. And it's getting shorter and shorter each time I rewrite it. That might be a good thing for you readers. I can see Frustration is taking over. Well, here goes with the upload and my orchestration of a Link.

Dear sweet Ellen, anytime you have an issue with uploading, please just call me, 919.556.4214. We can walk through this together on the phone. It's something you just did to do once or twice and it will be imparted into your until the .... Anyway, I'm elated you've uploaded your card to a challenge. We need to give your cards the attention/exposure they need. Sorry I didn't see this when you uploaded. I've not been around much lately. My home was calling my name to remove all traces of wanting to create cards to go and get some things done around here. Wow, when I make cards, my house goes to rack and ruin in a heartbeat. Off again to pick up where I left off in the kitchen. Hugs and love, sweet friend.
