Hillary Chybinski: creatively speaking. . .

creatively speaking. . .

. . .so i've been in a bit of a creative slump. . .any crafters out there relate?

but i saw a tweet yesterday by the amazing and funny Lain Ehmann about a card challenge on the ella blog. . .so i hopped on over there and read all about it. . .

the project was to take 20 minutes and create 4 ready-to-use no-occassion-specified cards.  you needed 2 pieces of cardstock (preferably 12x12) and 1 piece of patterned paper. . .and some embellys.

well - i took the challenge. . .and granted, it took me a tad bit longer than the 20 minutes it took super-scrapper Lain. . .but i did have a 3 YO in the house at the time. . .but i have to say - it was EASY - and darn it - my 4 cards look cute!  They are all ready for a sentiment stamp, or some rub-ons or letter stickers. . .and viola.


i would have posted a picture - but i sent an email to ella as part of their "inspired by" challenge. . .again - a bit out of my comfort zone. . .but something i'd like to see happen - some of my work published.  so for now - you have to imagine what they look like. . .but i gave you a peek

and by all means - try it yourself - you know you have that stuff in your stash - it's a great way to use up kit leftovers. . .

let me know if you try it!

catch you soon -
