Freestyle.

That's right, I freestyled my cards today - I bet you can tell - ha ha ha..... I didn't use a sketch or check out anything of anybody's - just sat there with my new Papertrey paper and ribbons and put these babies together. I'm happy with them because they are completely my own creations; I had a good time making them and that's what's important, right?

Edited to add: Jaycie said she thought these were all my creations - and they are. But sometimes you do a sketch (like a tutorial) or you see someone's card and you pirate it - and I do say when it's for a sketch or I saw this card on Lisa's blog blah blah blah. So it's your take on their template if you will. They'll tell you that you need to put a circle here and a skinny square here or whatever - but you decide how big to make those things, if you want it scalloped or different, if you want to add embellishments, etc. They just do a sketch with a few components that you use as the foundation of your card - proportions, ornateness, paper, ribbon, all that, is up to you. Sometimes you see a card out there but you don't have the sketch for it and you just make it your own; like you liked the way they had the ribbon here or that they put a circle over here. But sometimes you go with no inspiration at all and just create - which is what I did here. I have done this before, but not totally fresh with new paper and colors and my little creative mind.

It's FRIDAY, Girls - we made it!!
