I think I lost my mojo mid week. I just couldn't make anything I liked. I created, but was never satisfied with the final product. Today I dedicated the morning hours to completing several sketches/challenges and still not sure the cards are the best, but can't work on anything further because my mojo is spent.
I was determined to use some older papers which I obviously neglected to utilize after I purchased. In my mind, I was thinking, "I better hang onto some of that paper for later," and it is now later. I am trying to use up as much as I can without throwing a bunch of items on a card to make it look overdone.
First card is for
2S4Y this week. I made two cards for Laura's sketch because the first one was not a favorite.
