Card Chain Challenge for September

I truly couldn't think of what to do from this selection, but as I pasted the options in, I discovered that I 


I just couldn't think of anything but "Friendship" and so I went with a friendship card. This card was not the card I intended to make, but I fell in love with it.  I die cut the larger dies twice so I could glue them together at the top to create a card.  I think the phrase is actually meant for the back of the card, but I thought it was too good not to make a note inside as I figure a card maker would find it funny.

If you can't read it, here's what the sentiment says:
I write
"made with love"
on my cards because "made with cursing
way too much money
and lots of alcohol" 
won't fit on the label.

End of May With AI

 Art Impressions has some wonderful products and the challenge
 at 
Die Cut Divas is live through 9:00 p.m. Pacific time tonight!



Art Impressions, sponsoring Die Cut Divas' challenge  is giving a $25 gift card to the Winner of the May challenge. 

The challenge is to make your creation look like it is water colored.  You can use water colors, distress and distress oxides or whatever you want to get the water color look we want to see.

As I've said before, I find water coloring a challenge, but I do like this card. I know it looks like a tag, but it is an A2 size card. I bought two 8-packs of these cards and envelopes years back and still have a couple cards left. This card turned out to be so much fun!  I actually used it to send a not too late, but late, birthday card.

Supplies:
Art Impressions Got Style stamps (old lady on skate board
Art Impressions  Road trip stamps (stop light)
MFT Watercolor Wash Free Form die-namics no longer on MFT
