This is a small 3 x 3 card (no envelop). Nothing fancy at all, but still cute. There is some ink on the raised dots, but it was a very light color that you can't even see it.

I also made this 4.5 x 6.5 card for any occasion from some old Rusty Pickle paper that I have had for a while.

Ok, I have been trying really hard not to buy anything scrapbook/card making related including any new yummy papers. So I got all this stuff from my stash and as I am trying to add all the links to the stuff, I realize most of the stuff I used is really really old. Rusty Pickle is no longer in business :( I don't think All My Memories makes ink anymore (
I have no idea how long I have had it, but I know it has been years and years and years...maybe since I first started in 2003! I had to "borrow" this picture from someone on eBay selling this one (shhh!). I was lucky to even find it since I forgot to take a picture before I altered the tag. As you can tell, I took the flower off, then inked the tag to make it stand out a bit more and to be able to stand the tag vertical (see the lettering? It made me want to use it horizontally instead).
Maybe there is some hope and I will someday use all my supplies--ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Ok, maybe not.
**how do Jennifer McGuire and all the "celebrities" get so great pictures of their cards! I tried fixing my white balance (although I am using my P&S which still sucks!)...I wish they were truer colors.
Great job on the cards! Ooh - I think I feel some motivation coming on!;) As for the pics, I get the same problem. Do you have Picasa? When I'm up to it, I just open it up, find the pic I want to correct, and then click on "I'm feeling lucky". Quick and easy fix!
