final: noun

The last or one of the last of a series

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I would like to say the final card is the ultimate card, maybe, maybe not...but for the fun factor, I am rating it a 10!...I'm having a small give away so I'm going to go back to each post, and for every comment you left your name goes into the drawing. So you have 7 chances to win if you post a comment for each day. If you win; I'll send you this SEI Photo album. It's brand new, I only opened the packaging and took it out so it would photograph better :)

{ size 5.5" x 6" }

 



I'll announce the winner on WOYWW Wednesday posting so you have several days to catch up on the posting to increase your chances in the drawing!
 

So onto the last card of the series...
This guy seems to think a disguise works wonders and he thinks his imitation of a cow is going to save him from becoming a Thanksgiving feast, and if you read his thoughts, he is quite proud of his ingenuity!

Stretch Your Imagination cartridge

Sakura pens

Reminisce black and white pens

hand stitched border

Best Creation's - Hello Fall

 



My favorite part of this card was making the paper bag that fits over his head. I used an actual bag and copied how it was folded and made a replica in miniature...it's so cute, lol Ok, so they say little things amuse little minds...HA!

I just love this poem!

 

pattern paper and stickers - Best Creations

 

 I usually add a small line of glue to the ends of ribbons that I cut and that fray, but this time I added a dusting of some Martha Stewart glitter to the wet glue and I must say I like the effect. Although I might use my stickles next time though, a lot less messy! The sticker heart is lifted up with Helmar's Liquid Scrapdots.

frill: noun

decorative paper cover

 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Oh, do I really need to say anything? I couldn't help myself when going through the journaling boxes of Best Creations, when I saw this tag, my mind immediately jumped into the gutter! The hand cuffs don't open so I had to cut off the frill in order to slide the handcuff on and then used my Helmars Liquid Scrapdot, to lift the frill on the same level as the handcuff.

 There are times that moments like this can reinforce hoarding tendancies. I mean, I've had those little handcuffs for around 10 years, not knowing what I was going to do with them, but kept them all the same, and now look! I wish I had a ton of them, guess I'll have to go internet surfing and see if I can find any, I got these ( I have 2 ) from a party, kept mine and the one from the guy I was dating....he's long gone, but long live the charms! lol

My desk this week...

 

 



I'm actually learning ( like at my age, I just NOW figured this out!! ) to be a little neater, put things away and wash my desk top between projects since I am now making projects for the store. I have come to realize that organization really helps out Mr. Mojo ( who knew he was a neat freak? ) Well, he is either a neat freak or maybe he just gets so bored with cleaning and organizing that his mind frees up with creative thoughts to mess it back up with...either way it's a win win situation!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

restricted: adjective

Kept within certain limits

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am enjoying the freedom to make cards with my sense of humor for the store. I never realized how restricted I felt before with the ones that I submit to the magazines!
 ( have to be sweet and conservative all the time )

So this week will be dedicated to my sense of humor, Thanksgiving style!!
What inspires you? Ramona over at Inspire Me Monday Week 37 asks that question, and it can be any answer; for me...it's humor this week, and I hope you come back everyday to see a new card
 and hopefully smile...even giggle ( that's always better!! )

Pause Dream Enjoy - Challenge #37 Yellow and Red
and the question of the week:

What does the word "SCHOOL" make you think of?
Yellow School Buses? Red Apples?

...no, makes me think of tests that I didn't study for!

I worked in my red and yellow colors on the quote box. I took some Ranger's Squeezed Lemonade Reinker and used my finger to spread it out, and then printed the sentiment out on a separate piece of paper and used my red ink pen to trace over it with the help of a light box.

( no, my handwriting isn't that neat on my own! )
