100 day challenge 35-39

Are you sick of these yet? LOL! I am trying to catch up with getting these photographed and uploaded. That part is not as fun as creating them. Plus I have been enjoying the absolutely delightful weather we have been having. It is HEAVEN having the windows open and breeze coming through instead of listening to the AC run 24/7. Don't even want to THINK about my electricity bill. And without further ado, here are the cards!!

I experimented using ink and a square punch on this card. I find that the more I am working on these cards, the more willing I am to try new things. Believe me, that is a BIG step for me, as I was always the type of person terrified to make mistakes.


This is another card I made in a lesson for my Collafe Coterie class. Chris thinks the kids are spooky looking, and I have to agree!


I used 2 colors of acrylic paint for the background and then stamped the bugs, then used colored pencils to finish.


A quick card using stuff I had laying about on my table.


Another new experience for me - chalk! As a teacher, the only chalk I had ever used was the type that went on the blackboard. I never knew it could be so fun!


Thanks again for looking and letting me share.
