Craft Dash: Fail!

Jingle came over the other day for our weekly Wednesday craft night.   Sadly, Jess and Suzanne were unable to make it, so it was just the 2 of us.

The night was full of wigs, juicy jellybeans, Stamping Royalty entries, and goofiness! You'd think we were on something... hah!

Well anyway, I totally failed. My card was not finished in the 10 minutes allowed for the Craft Dash Challenge :(   At the last possible second, I needed to put some green on my card, so here's what I did...

Yikes.  Jennifer was so confused when she saw me tie up that green strip...and we think I may have started a new trend!

Of course, after the fact I went back and finished the card:


You can't really see the scoring detail, maybe it's a little clearer in this shot:

And now the most embarrassing part...showing you the video. Sorry for the bad lighting. For those of you who pay attention to my blog- yes- the wig is from my PAX costume! I'm running behind on sharing those photos with you, but when I get to it, it'll be worth it!

Watch at your own risk (we sound like annoying giggling girls at some parts! hehe)

  3. I'm sad... I wanted to see the entire crafting world start to tie strips of paper to the corners of their card all because Jen Rsaza, the rock star, did it. HA! Your card turned out super cute! I like the green at the bottom. Totally works! And I still love the embossing!

  6. P.S. I think it's fabulous to see, in my opinion, one of the card maker greats, NOT take herself TOO seriously.

  7. You guys still crack me up, even when there are just two of you!! I was in stitches at you tying your strip of green round the corner - hilarious!!! Love how the amended version turned out - I think the green makes much more sense there. ;-) Honk!!

  10. Seriously, you're hilarious.

    I love the way the 'fixed' card turned out though! The strip of gold glitter is gorgeous! Thanks for playing with us again, I always love seeing your designs!

  11. Your card looked really great when you held it near the camera! The scoring, splatter and the glitter strip are neat details. I was cracking up seeing your last second decision to tie up the green strip of paper! :D To me, it looked like the ribbon you tie on a gift box.
    Thanks for sharing the video, enjoyed watching it.

  13. Bwahahahah! Yes, that is me totally laughing from watching the video. I missed the other girls, but I'm so glad that deter you from still filming your crafty session!

    Jen, this card is beautiful. That strip of glitter is AMAZING and was a great way of adding the "kraft" color. Oh, and your trend? Yeah, it'll totally take off. ;)

    Thanks for playing once again in the 10 Minute Craft Dash! Hope you're enjoying your prize from your win last time!
