Why do I only post when it's time for a Simon Says Challenge? Because Simon reminds me it's time to make a card and put it up. I make a lot of other cards but seldom get around to adding them here.
Here's the one for the Wednesday challenge today, which is to highlight Hero Arts products. I have a few Stamp and Cut sets from Hero Arts. I chose to use the set titled PRAYERS today.
I have made a background of blended inks using the ink smoosh technique. The panel is a glossy CS but I put oxide inks over it. So unless the lighting is just right, you don't see the glossy finish much.
A friend of mine just found out her husband has bone cancer. It does not look very good for recovery, so I thought I would send some prayers along to them. Ethereal prayers will have more effect, but paper ones can't hurt. Just want her to know we are thinking of them.
So, I said I have been making other cards as well for the past month. Thought I would add a few to my post. Just so I can keep track of actuallt doing something, when I start thinking I only sit and stare at the computer. My productivity wanes when I start down rabbit holes online.
It's always fun to try a new fold. This was quite quick and I will probably do a few more of these. The link to the video is here. Make note of the one correction in the video, there is a change in the scoring measurements for the smallest block. Stampin’ UP!

I had made some backgrounds from party napkins that I saved. Finally used one of them for a birthday card. The balloons seemed to be a good background for this old-style phonograph, an old Stampin' up set called Timeless Talk.
Easter is April 5th this year, so I made Easter cards for one of my cards for the class I lead each month.
This is the second card we are doing for the class. I loved that both were simple cards and we could get them finished in a reasonable amount of time. We all get tired out if the cards take too long.
I am creating more cards today trying to get ready for my next couple of classes. maybe I can get another post made before Simon has to come and Remind Me.
