1. It's Monday and another CCEE challenge. I cannot tell you how many times I have told my CCEE friends that they should not be assigning techniques! They simply choose to disregard me and my opinions! Some day I am gonna get even! Someday soon!
2. This is one of those cards. I don't even know the name of them or the technique but ever since they were featured on the Splitcoast Technique Challenge they have been the rage. They are cool but I won't tell you this was fun, cuz it stressed me out! If YOU are interested you can click here for a tutorial!
3. See my blog for a list of all the mistakes I made and for a picture of how I feel about this technique!
4. Oh yeah, it closes too! Whoo Hoo! For proof its on my blog!
Oh, and be sure you check out the other girls CCEE cards, they did good, what a bunch of show offs!! Snort!

Your story just made me laugh, as I LOVE the look of these whatever-you-call-them cards but they look HARD!!! Yours is no exception - the design is so fun and wonderful to look at, but it looks so time-consuming. I suppose I will have to do one just to say I have, but I will ditto your story, I bet!! LOL

How can someone who makes such an extremely CUTE tri-shutter card (yes, repeat it, please, so you remember the name of the technique---thank you!) whine so much about havin' to do it?!?!? OMG! I love this sweet, cute, and pretty card! The Rockabilly dp was a perfect choice with these cute trees. I'm so glad you found the time to make one with all your DD and DT commitments; thanks for playing even when I gave ya permission to be off the hook. Speaking of hooks....that reminds me.....whadda mean I know nuttin' about fish? Wait til I send ya a smelly fish card! Snort!

Cindy, I love this card, I have been seeing the tri-shutter cards done a lot lately and hope to learn how to do it when I find time. Love your trees and the colors. You did a fabulous job on it.

First I was so impressed with your baby set on the DD and now this. It is just too much "cute" for one day. I know you get up at 3:30 a.m. but you must not go to bed until 2:30 a.m.
