I don't think you need worry. Pam said "mail by" the 14th. Otherwise, I'm in trouble.


And thanks for the suggestions. I figured I'd be doing some masking. Hoping to mail out on Thursday.

Okay, NOW I am excited about my design. I worked last night on a photo-type. :lol: I have all the needed elements of heavy card stock, inks, stamps, masks and colored pens packed away to take to my weekly LSS meet up this morning. Being with those ladies is always inspiring and when I have an actual project with a deadline involved, I can get a lot done there. My plan to mail them out tomorrow is looking possible.

Thanks everyone for giving me notice. I'm going to complete mine tonight (took me forever to decide on something for some reason).

Will let you know as they arrive.

Glad I wasn't the only one trying to decide on a final design. :lol: This is a great challenge Pam. I think most of us work in a more 3-D state of mind whether it's cards or scrapping we enjoy. Keeping it flat made us think outside our comfy zone. :clap:

Making postcards has challenged my thinking, for sure.

I haven't been home much this week, so backgrounds got made on Monday and I've been working on mine tonight to go out tomorrow. But.... I did add some flat cutouts. I made sure it was thin and completely glued down, but I'm worried they won't go through. I'm thinking I need to go back to square one and remake them. :|

Mine are done! I'm going to spray them with a sealer tomorrow. Am I being overly cautious? I mostly used distress inks and am worried they could be damaged.

Oh shoot! I should have thought of that! I hope my cards don't arrive all blurry. :shock: Where do I join the paranoia club? :lol:
