It's Been a While!

Yes, it has been a while.  But here I am with a gajillion new cards to post!  Okay, not really a gajillion.  But it felt like it!

Let's see.  I did a craft show at the beginning of August.  I did so much prep in the week before the show that I was totally burned out and didn't want to make anything again ever.  At least not for a while.  So for a while, I didn't.  What's that?  You're wondering about the 100 in 100?  Well, although I didn't continue to document the cards and other things that I made, I decided that everything I made for that craft show counted.  And I made a LOT.  I (unfortunately) have a ton left over so eventually I will get around to posting pictures of the projects I made.  The cards that I made for the show will be in this post, though!

Lucky for me, it seems like I have that card-making oomph back!  It helps that I had a workshop this weekend and we made four cards in that workshop.  The prep and the workshop helped me remember that this is fun!  Not to mention that I got a TON of new stuff to play with this past week.  Eighteen new stamp sets!  And six more that I bought from the Buy/Sell/Trade on Splitcoast!

Well, let's get on with it, shall we? :)

I made this card and the birthday card above in both of these color schemes, just to change things up a bit.  My husband doesn't like the pie.  He can't figure out what a pie has to do with a thank you card.  I tried telling him that the pie is irrelevant but he doesn't understand.  Men...
