Weekly Special - Post Revisted Januray 7, 2007

****UPDATE****

As promised. . .I posted the sketch for the cards below!! Try it out and tell me what you think. Send me a link to your blog site and I'll take a look at it!!

What is "Post Revisted" about? Well. . .I decided once a week I'm going to repost a previous post that I wanted to revisit! I'll leave the original post intact with a commentary update at the top. I know for a fact that nobody looks at any of my post as far back as 6 months ago so I think you'll be cool with the idea that I'm re-posting a preivous post.

In early January I was not posting sketches yet. I'll add sketches for these cards tomorrow. I'm on my laptop and sitting in the family room while watching TV and my laptop don't have the program to create the sketches.

I remember way back in January, I was doing daily specials that involved different themes such as color challenges, sketch challenges, Anything but Cards, Dollar Days, etc. I could not stick to my own schedule so I abandoned it. I now create things randomly. . .whatever I feel like doing! After reading my original post below, I realized that I couldn't stick to my schedule from day 1. Haha! That's hilarious! Oh well! Anyway, check out what I posted on January 7th, 2007 below!

Okay. . .I need to get on the ball with my daily specials which I am about a week behind but I'm going to start over. I guess I have to allow myself the window at times to not be able to follow through an some of them.

Tuesday's daily special is the "Color Challenge". I was inspired to create a card using the SCS "Color Challenge #90". I love the subtle colors of Blush Blossom, True Thyme, and Cranberry Crisp.



Card description:
