ladies and gentlemen: the jackson five!

who, oddly enough, have not made any cool cards for day five of CardMaps Week. go figure. on the other hand, to the best of my knowledge, none of the caardvarks can moonwalk, so suppose that's fair enough. but now let us leave the precociously funky lads from gary, indiana, and instead feast our eyes on today's sketch:


and now shall we gaze upon the card i made for this challenge?





(basic grey rub-ons & patterned papers, sei velvet paper, k&co & sandylion stickers, colorbox ink)

oh and the other day when i said that becky fleck's fantastic website was devoted to cards instead of layouts for the month of december? turns out...i was only half right. in fact, the brand new CardMaps set is in addition to the regularly scheduled PageMaps. plus there are sketches made especially for half-sized pages, tags, round pages, & minibooks. so basically, it's a place well worth checking out whether you are a beginner or seasoned papercrafter.

which means that next time, jackson five, you have no excuse for not participating!

  4. Aaaaah.... I am in awe of your talent and assume the Jackson 5 are too which is why, like me, they do not clever cards!
