Card worthy

I made this card for my step-daughter who is 28years old and lives and Florida.  I spent a lot of time coloring her and I have not sent her a Halloween card before.   She doesn't send me birthday cards so I usually do not make cards for her.  I tend to give my cards to people who I know will appreciate all the hard work and effort that I put into them or as I refer to it the person needs to be "card worthy."  It is funny, the person who I have found that comments the most and questions me about my techniques is my father.  He went shopping with me at the Mall of America and was in Archiver's and commented about the price of the items so I know he appreciates the value of the card.  He also went and was showing people one Christmas a scrapbook that I made for him, and I was told by several people how he was explaining it.   That is when you feel good about your accomplishment.

  5. I can't get the scene from Shrek out of my head, where the Gingerbread man is under interrogation. LOL. Your gingerbread card is just too cute - super adorable with the googly eyes. Thanks for playing along with us at DYSU.
