Here is my card for the MMTPT189 challenge. My basic idea was to make it look like there were hands holding some playing cards. I am not a very talented artist, so I thought I could use some oval die cuts to make the hands. They turned out sort-of creepy looking. I think I did more damage then good when I tried to add some creases to the skin. Might make the hands a little different next time.
Pretty easy card, just embossed the white card stock and used a brayer to add some ink on the raised parts, cut and corner rounded the cards, stacked them up and added the ovals for the hands and finger nails. Couldn't resist adding some Crystal Effects to the nails to make them appear more "painted." Hope that it makes Rita smile.

Amy, I totally love this and put in my favs. I think it looks wonderful and it is so imaginative. You are a genious!!! I know Rita will flip over it - she will be super impressed like me. This card is a Punchkateer dream - if I counted correctly, your punch total is 36! That in itself is worth a round of applause! Love, love, love your card!!!

Amy, Not creepy at all! We bridge players are all over 65 and I see many hands shaped like that! They are going to get a good laugh at the neat design of this card! You were VERY creative on this! I too, love your e.f. of the cards. All the teapotters have been very creative but this one moved to the top! Something I do not think any of us have ever seen with the thumbs! Good job! Again, all of you ladies are amazing. Thanks, Rita
