Here is my "10 Minute" card.  I was a bit concerned going into this challenge since it normally takes me FOREVER to complete a card!  A fast card takes me an hour.  Here is my entry and it only took 11 minutes and 49 seconds!  Oops! 



I cut 1/2" strips of our Papaya, Fizz, Celery, Lemon Grass, Dixie and Mimosa heavy card stock and adhered them to the front of an A2 card.  I quickly used my paper trimmer to trim the edges.  I then stamped the frame and sentiment from our Framed Fonts stamp set onto a square of Ultra Smooth Pure White card stock.  This is when time ran out.  I adhered the stamped sentiment and tied the Fizz bow as quickly as I could!  It was tough but fun!

Thanks for stopping by to take a peek!  I hope that you are having a great week so far.

  1. Love your 10 minute card that took almost 12 minutes. I can't believe you finished this in about 12 minutes. It would take me forever to cut and adhere all those strips. Oh, and it takes me a long time to tie a bow, too.

  2. Amazing card--love the diagonal stripes! Would have taken me a lot longer than 11 minutes!
