Not Too Shabby @ Little Red Wagon

This week at


it's my turn to choose the challenge and I'm saying, "Not Too Shabby".....but actually you can be as shabby as you want! We're looking for shabby chic projects, so whatever level of shabby you want to give is a-okay with me.

This is what I did....



Sorry for the not-so-great photo....had to photograph it at night and then out the door it went. No stamps on this one.....just patterned paper, some seaming binding, flowers and a computer generated sentiment.  Fashioning that bow was definitely the most time consuming part of the whole thing.....while except for the time I spent cajoling my middlest to stop doing his homework and let me have the computer for 30 seconds so I could print out the sentiment.  He was doing quite a convincing role reversal about it....."Now, Mom, what's more important?  My homework or you finishing your card?"  Cheeky monkey.

Why not give our challenge a go this week and head on over to Little Red Wagon and link up?  And, while you're there, be sure to check out the wonderful projects the other Girlfriends have created.

  2. Hmmm...well, I daresay I wouldn't have known this was your card if I was just looking at it in a lineup, as it's not your usual style. It's a pretty card, no doubt about it, but I confess to liking your vibrant, clean style best.

Okay, so ever since I started my blog (well, maybe not right from the get-go, it was probably a good six months or so before I realized you could change it from just "Leave your comment") I've tried to come up with something witty to type here.

*sitting with brow furrowed in concentration*...*staring at the ceiling while pursing lips*...*resting with head on hand while tapping foot*...

Nope, I still got nothing.
