There's a Hole in my Card Dear Liza, Dear Liza...

Good Sunday morning! It's time for another challenge over at AAA Cards!

This week is a really fun one with so many possibilities!

Game #38 : There's a Hole in my Card

Create a card with an opening somewhere.

Have fun and keep it CAS,  then head on over to the AAA Cards blog and link up your creation!

Here is my Take:

I have had little to no creating time in the past couple of weeks, but I promised myself that when I can, I will try a technique or two that are new to me. This fun suspended spinner card was inspired by THIS video by Kristina Werner that I ran across as I was pondering this "hole in my card" challenge. Perfect! I love the idea of twisting the suspended die cut several times before putting it in the envelope so that the recipient will get a fun spinning surprise when they open it!

The embossing folder that I used for the top panel has been in my stash for a long while and I have not used it yet, so I am sending this over to Shopping Our Stash #198 - Texture Me - use your oldest embossing supply.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. As always, I appreciate your feedback.

Thankful

 

I created this Thanksgiving card as a second entry for the AAA Cards THANKSgiving Game after being inspired by THIS card by Becky from Stamping and Scrapping.  I loved Becky's card so much that I went right out and bought the gorgeous EF that she used to create it.  I was so happy that I could find it locally because I NEEDED it right then and there. You know how it is...  

 

Thanks for coming by and taking a look. 

Supplies:

Stamps~PTI Leaf Prints,

Paper~TE Buttercream, SU Cajun Craze and More Mustard
