Do Over's Please!


Have you ever wanted to unpost a card or layout in your gallery? I have a few, but there's one that I actually would like to carefully pull apart and do-over. So I'm curious if any of you have a do-over in your gallery? If you're willing, share which one it is, what your gripe is about the card and add a link to share. If anyone really did the do-over item that is even better.

Tell your friends, let's have a big Do-Over party this week!


Here's mine:

The gripe? The most creative part doesn't stand out. All those butterflies I masked and stamped on the panel, then cut and raised with dimensionals don't really do a dramatic element to the card. It needs more contrast overall.



So what is your do-over?

    Love the way you cut out the butterflies. I have lots of do overs! When I am finished with something and not satisfies it does into the "rework" pile. Sometimes they stay there for a while before I can decide what they need.

    There are many cards that I start out with one idea and end up with another. And not always something I like. But I press forward anyway because I'm trying not to waste anything. I often think "if I were to make this card again I would..." and fill in the blank with my changes. But I don't end up re-making any of them. I guess because there are too many new ideas to try out that I never get back to it.

    I do think your card is pretty and I like the design. I do understand what you mean about your butterfly blending in with the background.

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
