Make a Card Monday - November 26, 2007
Hi all!So I'm going to try something new: Make a Card Monday! Feel free to join me, or you can just tune in here to see what I'm doing. :)
After I completed this card, it occurred to me that the sentiment might not be complete! "Have a fun & merry..." what? Where's the rest of it? I totally didn't finish the card! I suppose I'll have to put "holiday!" on the inside of the card to complete it. Hee hee... I'm a dork. Forgive me. :)
You'll also notice in the video that I had no idea what I wanted the card to say! This truly is how I work. I just jump in feet first and try to figure it out as I go. My process is very organic like that. Not much planning outside of picking colors, and even then sometimes I don't know (like when I chose the ribbon in the video).
Anyway, I hope you all enjoy Make a Card Monday! Actual time making the card: 17 minutes.
OH! And before you all start asking, the music is by Diana Krall. :)

your comment about actual time: 17 minutes, totally made me bust out laughing? why? when I was about 10 years old my family got a little swimming pool, and it came with a "set-up" video. my (little) brother says to my dad: "it only takes 30 minutes, what is taking you so long?" ha! anyways, love your videos, they give me something excited to look forward to!
Love your fast action video tutorials. Without the sound instructions it is still easy to understand what you are making. It's very enjoyable. Thanks
You always amaze me. I loved how you used your scissors to put the glue dot under the bow. Thanks for the great videos.
Incredibly entertaining as always! That was fantastic and inventive. I love it! Thanks for sharing. I look forward to more MOndays.
I ADORE your blog and visit it daily!! You have such a fun attitude that truly comes through in your writing, card making and videos. I love your choice of music and have purchased several CDs that I would not have even known about if it wasn't for your blog!! Thanx so much for all you do to keep us inspired and amazed! Have a fabulous Holiday!!!
I'm totally excited to see what each "Make a Card Monday" holds!!
LOVE it! And you even had closing credits! hehehe...
thanks for sharing!
GIRL YOU ROCK! Love the card, love the video, love the music.
Hooray! Another AWESOME video! LOOOOVE that card!!!! Great music as usual!
Keep em comin!
Love the card! I visit your blog regularly and will look forward to "Make a Card Monday" :) Oh and here's an idea for the missing sentiment... put a small-size "holiday" or "Christmas" on the long "y" of "merry." Just a thought! Happy stamping!
I absolutely *love* the high speed start to finish. Love the music! Do not love you for being able to develop an original design in 17 min. actual time, however. Know this really sucks for the rest of us mere mortals, doncha know? *chuckle* Aaaah well. And, you've piqued my curiosity . . . why come you have used You Tube instead of Revver, as you were previously?
Love the video! I'm very jealous that you can come up with such a cute design in under 20 minutes. Amazing! Can't wait to see your next video creation.
I was thinking if you just added "be" after the "&" sign it would read "Have fun & be Merry" that would make sence. I love the video they always teach me something. Now I need to get a circle cutter.
Thanks,
Maria
That is beautiful, I love it!
Your card could also say: Have fun and be merry!
Girl, you rock! Love your cards and the videos are ultra fun and hip! You've got it all goin' on! Thanks for the inspiration...now to go make my own circle card! :-)
You are a card-making genius! It would take me 2 hours and a lot of mangled cardstock to come up with something this cute. Way to go. Looking forward to the Make A Card Mondays :)
I just want to say YOU have a wonderful blog i check it daily to see what you are going to teach me today. LOVE It thanks for sharing
Camille
That is the cutest thing! Wouldn't it be great if it really only took that long to put together a card?
Can't wait to see what you come up with next Monday. I am going to have to get out my Coluzzle. By the way, what kind of envelope would you use for this circle card?
Maria
omg! a 17 minute card?! i WISH! this card is just adorable. reminds me that i have a coluzzle and now i want to try it out! thanks for sharing your wonderful work!
L O V E it!! I'm going out to buy a Coluzzle . . . thanks for sharing ;)
I visit daily. I love it! Keep up the great work!
Hey girl - awesome! And I love the music, so bravo for the switch. It makes your video so fun!! I played along with Make a Card Monday! Thanks for the inspiration! I think I spent like three hours! ha!

I love the card and I'd never notice the sentiment wasn't finished had you not pointed it out. Thanks for being so inspiring.
Fun video !! I love the card and you really sell the coluzzle here ;)
Great idea for the Make a Card Monday and again bravo on the video. It is good to know that someone else just jumps and lets the stamping gods guide her!
Cute card BTW!
You rock! Thanks for sharing your talent!
Just love the fast action videos - you are such a talent, missy! :)
I have been a daily visitor to your site for a long time now. I just adore all that you do. I've told all of my stampin' buddies to visit your blog.
