A journal of my crazy desire to complete one craft or creative project every day for one year.

Projects 152-169 - Card and Gnome Tags
Yes, that's right - Gnome tags. Not to be mistaken with Name Tags. Because names are for humans and Gnomes are for Gnomes... yeah.. okay.
Ahem.
I'm really trying to get caught up as soon as possible because you never know when Murphy is going to throw you another curve ball! That said, there are a couple of projects that I have on the go that I really wanted to put some extra effort into. For example, the card I designed for my mom for Mother's Day took me over 2 hours to make today, as opposed to the regular 20-30 minutes I usually spend on a card. What can I say, she's my mom!
So here's the round up:
152- Cuba 2011 Scrapbook Page - finally got the pictures developed!
153 - Glorious and Free Card - this is for a contest - not sure if I have a shot or not!
154 - Bright Mother's Day Card - for my eventually to be mother-in-law
155 - Pink Butterfly Mother's Day card - for my grandma - she loves pink!
156 - Four-sided Mother's Day card - yup. This is the one that took 2+ hours! (Photo of page one is above)
157 - Butterfly Bliss Card
158 - Olive Elegance Birthday Card - for a special someone turning 70!
159 - Little Elephant Baby Card - for my next swap - I need to make 12 more of these!
And now for the Gnome Tags! I decided since each of my Gnome creations from last week have their own personality, they needed a Gnome Tag! Each creature has his name embossed on the card, and a phrase that he or she has been known to utter on occasion. You kind of have to say the phrases with a bit of a Russian accent - Gnomes don't speak English very well, you know!
So here is each Gnome and the phrase that appears on their tag:
160 - Gnome Tag - Edward - "My 'stache... is Legend!"
161 - Gnome Tag - Pierre - "Poke my tummy... Dare you!"
162 - Gnome Tag - Celeste - "I'm a sweet and innocent flower!"
163 - Gnome Tag - Jacques - "Have smile, will travel!"
164 - Gnome Tag - Sunshine - "I no get lost in dark!"
165 - Gnome Tag - Whitey - "I lead, you follow - yes?"
166 - Gnome Tag - Fred - "Name? Bah! Hat is better!"
167 - Gnome Tag - Doris - "Mess with me, I whap you with spoon!"
168 - Gnome Tag - George - "Trust me... I have square beard!"
169 - Gnome Tag - Mary - "You want hug? Come!"
Aww, ain't they cute?
