Randomness + Giveaway

Hello Friends!

Hope you're having a good Sunday :) It's snowing here, forecast calls for about 9" by tomorrow.

I just wanted to show some cards I've made recently. Just because. I've found I have to do the "just because" cards because if I only do DT assignments, crafting becomes work, you know what I mean?

Here you go! Giveaway deets below :)

 I wanted to play with my re-inkers and water. Sentiment from Neat & Tangled. Flowers from Hero Arts.

 This is Operation Write Home Sketch #158. It's for my hubs. I tell him this often :)

I found a love card I made but never photographed.

I'm still clearing out my craft room and after my last giveaway, my giveaway box is still full of goodies. So just leave a comment and you'll be entered! Let's give it a week, so deadline to enter is March 3rd :) If you Facebook/Tweet/blog about the giveaway, let me know with an additional comment and I'll put an extra entry in for you :)

Hope you have a great week!
Melissa

Those flowers just grab me, great card. I agree, the fun is creating with no expectations.

I totally understand what you mean. The time that I was on a DT - I was honored, but when all you are doing is making projects on a "have to" basis all the time and not having just "playing time" it defeats why we love this hobby so much. Any more it seems that I make cards just to enter into challenges - which is great too - but sometimes you need to break away and just make something for "no reason". Love all your creations girly!

Those flowers are awesome, for sure! You are a sweetie to make that card for your hubby, too. Thanks for sharing your three super cards.

Your flower card is so cute, Melissa! The colors scream spring (which I'm so looking forward to!). Enjoy your snow tomorrow! :)

All these cards are beautiful, Melissa! The coloring is fantastic. My favorite card would be the "You are my favorite" because that's what my guy best friend and I tell each other all the time... But I also love the "Love Struck" one, because I'm such a romantic. What a fun surprise giveaway--thank you! (;
