Norway is a Long Way from Texas

 My card for the Card Chain Challenge was headed to Gail this month.  And Norway is a long way from Texas, so I am hoping that the card arrived today.  It had not yet arrived on Sunday.   Since Gail only posted one picture of the card part way opened on the reveal yesterday, I am thinking it may have not arrived in Mondays post like we were hoping.  But I am going to take the chance that Gail will not look here before the card arrives and I am posting both pictures of the card.  

I used the sketch somewhat this month and pretty much used the colors.  I had fun using these Pumpkins and some DSP I have hoarded for a while.  Don't look Gail! Until the card arrives.

Here is the beautiful leafy card I received from Jeanne H in MN

I love how she painted the leaf!

Last night I actually got to play in one of the Splitcoaststampers challenges.  First time for the CAS challenge in a while.  The theme was puns, so I used the AI set Gullfriends and made this card. 

Also tried out a new die last night and made this card with a shaving cream background piece for the sunset.  Then stamped and embossed the sentiment on the die cut base.  The embossing folder I used on the card base looks like the earth when it is so dry it starts to crack into weird patterns.  

 

That's all for today.   I had printed out several digital stamps a very long time ago and I spent some time coloring today.  Maybe I can get more cards made tomorrow with some of those images.
