more card challenges (card box, Tuesday Trio) ... (2nd post of the night... read below)

The very first challenge on 365 Cards was to make a card box, you know, for all the cards we'd be making. I kind of cheated by using a basket, but I did make the dividers... I like being able to see the cards sticking out of the sides of the dividers, but I decided to put foam on the bottom of them to better separate each section.



Then, this is yesterday's challenge... still 365 Cards. The requirement was to use 3 things: ribbon, flower, button. I don't usually use buttons and not many flowers either, but here you have it. Not the best I've ever made, but it's fun I guess. I'm still learning. I do really like the colors though (have you noticed I like brown?) And now I wish I would've stacked the flowers then put the words at the bottom of the column. Oh well.

Looks like you're having fun, Heidi - and making some cute cards. I'm sorry to hear about your card - that's sucks. I hope Dad can fix it - luckily though you can collect photos via your blog, myfamily, and other relatives so you aren't photoless. Still a bummer.
