Weekend Crafty Goodness!

For the first time in a while, I devoted a big chunk of time to crafting! I took over the dining room table and went to town ;) ( I had to go to dining room so I could watch the races on the BIG TV!) Now most of the projects I made, I can't post yet as they are for future issues of Scrapbook News and Review, or for upcoming challenges on Artistic Papercrating...but I do have 2 that are not for either!! I noticed that 365 cards started a new year, so I decided to go play along over there for a bit ;)

Here is my card for day 1 at 365 cards, it was a white space challenge:

YourAStar

This card is also for Card Makin' Mammas...their challenge was to use GREEN! (please ignore the stain on card, i had rock candy stickles on my hand and well...FAIL!)

This card is day 2 at 365 cards, the challenge was kind of fun...there were 5 prompts:
1. Favorite color---red
2. Fav design technique--distressing
3. fav embellie--flowers
4. least fav color--yellow
5. fav card size--4.25x5.5

so i used these answers to make this card:

Queen

I am also entering this card in 2 other challenge.
1. Some Odd Girl--Handmade Elements Challenge--I realize i did not use a SOG stamp, but i really wanted to enter since i made all my embellies outta Wendi Vecchi stamps ;)
2. Gingersnap creations Random Redhead challenge--Crowns

And now I think I will get back to my weekend crafty goodness...there are alot of hours left in the day!
Thanks for visiting my blog today! Anyone notice I redesigned it?? I did this one by myself, took an entire day, but I like it ;)
