I think I broke myself making those couple dozen similar cards last weekend. This past weekend I couldn't remember how to craft. Well, first I did manage to make 10 of these fall themed ATCs. They were fun since I wasn't quite sure what the final product should look like and just fuddled along with this and that until they were done.
After that, I couldn't cut straight or accurately, my ability to match colors was out the window, I put adhesive on every surface except the one that needed it... Basically everything I touched turned to crap.
That's when I decided to pull out one of those kits where all you have to do is assemble the pieces. Surely I could do that?! I got the spacing a little off but it all works out anyway. I even did a bit of sponging and doodling too.
That was it though. The one card took it right out of me. Ever have one of those nothing-goes-right weekends?

Two lovely makes Judy. Your scarecrow ATC is very colourful and interesting to look at. I think we all have those glue everywhere days. Barbxx

What a wonderful scene you created for the ATCs--I'm in awe, Judy! Your doodling is fabulous--something I just can't do!
I love that scarecrow and sunflowers! And yes, I've had weeks like that!
