I’m in shock!!! Apparently my cute lil VW Bug Birthday card caught someone’s eye… it’s the reason I made the TOP 20 of this year’s Gallery Idol Card Contest put on by Paper Crafts Magazine!!! You can read more about it here and see the other Top 20!!! I am thrilled, elated, and oh so excited to be advancing to the next round! Our theme is “Weddings”. We have to create a wedding card. Kinda nervous since I RARELY do wedding cards but I’m just going to have fun and see what happens!
That’s what I did last year when I advanced clear to to the Top 5!!!! Just had fun! Seems like FOREVER ago but it was about this same time last summer! Wanna little peek down memory lane? These are the cards I made for last year’s Gallery Idol. Some of my faves ever as I tried to dig deep in that creative mojo pool!!! Anyhoo…. I will leave you with these and hope ya’ll have a great week! Mine is starting out awesome!
