Step It Up! Saturday.... on Thursday


Last week I used a Freshly Made sketch as my inspiration for my Step It Up cards.
I posted card #3 early so I could join the challenge.


I posted my card #3 thinking is was the most beautiful and, you know, special.
It was vintage, distressed, inked...
Well, had I bothered to READ the Freshly Made sketch guidelines, I would have learned they want
clean card. You know, the kind I usually do for step #1 or #2
but dummy me, didn't read and I posted the EXACT kind of card they don't want
LOL
I am an idiot.


So, this week I give you all three at one go.
I will put #2 in at Freshly Made Sketches and maybe #3 at ColourQ. I love #1 but I guess it is too simple for some of these challenges.

Another Mash Up




I am trying to get ready for my first convention. I have cards all ready to go through Monday.
At that point, it will be convention coverage.
I hope you all are okay with that.

Joan all 3 cards are terrific, but I do have to say that I like the distressed one the best.

You're not an idiot! I entered a challenge once because someone told me to (didn't read the fine print) and realized afterwards I was supposed to use their stamps! I used all SU! stuff!!!! All three cards are beautiful! Love the vintage look of #3! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!

I love all three of your cards. The embossed panels really pop though! Thanks for playing with us at Freshly Made Sketches!

I had to smile when I read your post! I have done the same and even worse. Once I had made several cards for several challenges and some how I posted the wrong card on one of the challenges. All three of your cards are beautiful. Love the colors and the sentiment. TFS

Wow ... what fabulous cards ... I like them all and yes, #2 fits FMS perfectly, but personally I really like your take on the vintage, distressy look .... very lovely indeed!
Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!!!

I love all three, but I guess I'm a Freshly Made girl at heart because #2 is definitely my favorite. I love the way you colored the stamp and the sentiment (also two of my favorites!). Thanks for sharing with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
