I am so happy when I get more than an hour to create. This afternoon I had about two hours to create and got four cards done for the Stamp-a-Faire challenges. The first card is my favorite of the bunch. It was for Kay's Water Color Like a Master challenge. Best part about this was that I didn't have to worry about the stamps lining up perfectly. Love the soft, soothing feel of this card.
My second card is for Amy's Starry Night challenge. I didn't have any white paint or thick white ink...so I couldn't quite do the whole technique but am pleased with the way it turned out. Always good to get a bit more use out of my distress inks!
My third card is for the Masterpiece Inspirations Challenge. I loved the bold colors in Henri Matisse's picture. This card will probably go to Ryan when he's off to college. Only a few weeks to go...and this mama's heart is happy but hurting a bit at the same time.
My last card is for Lizzie's Drips & Splatters challenge. You can tell I'm a bit of a CAS girl...so I kept the splatters a bit minimal. This card will go to a co-worker whose birthday is in a few days.
I'm hoping to play along with one or two more challenges before Tuesday morning. We'll see how much energy I have when I get home from work tomorrow!
Now I'm off to see Me Before You with my mum. Think we'll need to bring some tissues for sure.

Oh, look at you, enjoying SAF!!! I'm jealous! Your creations are looking beautiful!!! Yes...that water color card IS perfection, and your 'starry night' panel??? Just gorgeous!!! Love em all, Lynn! Thanks so much for popping by to say hello...it means so much!!!
wonderful creations Lynn - i love your watercolor one the best too - would love to hear what you thought of the movie - i was conflicted as i loved the acting, how cute and quirky the actress was - sorry i couldn't handle or agree with the end.
So glad you had some time to play! Absolutely beautiful cards.
Oh, I love your take on all of the challenges so far, especially the Matisse one with the tree/leaves! Genius! I remember how it felt taking Jake to university the first time...it gets better, trust me...but yes, lots of tears at the beginning ox
Oh, these are all so beautiful, Lynn! Wonderful job with the SAF challenges!
Wow you have been busy! It is great to see so much different stykes! Love the three-cards...but hee; I just love trees :) Enjoy your week!
These are all so pretty Lynn! So glad you had some free time to play along! Your watercolored card is stunning! :)
These are fantastic, Lynn! Gosh, I wish I could accomplish that much in two hours. LOL! I'm lucky to make one card in that time, and there's no way they'd be this gorgeous if I tried.
The top one is my favorite, too! So soft and pretty.
How much FUN you must have had! ALL beautiful!
Your time was well spent Lynn, these are fantastic!
Fab set of cards Lynn. Love the soft feel of the first. My fa is the second, gorgeous sky and of course we love the third CAS creation. No crafty time for me, Kylie and her Mum have taken over the space and I can't even get to it!!
Oh, my - these are all so gorgeous!! I especially love the soft watercolouring on your take on Kay's challenge. Beautiful!!
Fabulous times four. Love your take on the challenges. My mama heart is right there with yours -- great to see them growing up but hard to let go ((HUGS))!!
These are fabulous! I wish I could've played along with more challenges (or won, that would've been nice too), but love the leaves, I have that set... great reminder.
So many gorgeous cards! I amazed that you were able to bang our four cards in two hours, I would still be choosing stamps--lol! Hope you and your mom enjoyed the movie, I just finished the book last week!
Beautiful cards! All of that creativity in two short hours, wow!
Fantastic cards - love the soft watercolour and the night sky especially!
So love your sympathy card!
