Autumn Cards




Here are some Autumn cards I made. They are pretty simple, but yet I like them.

I've been pretty busy this morning making some Cricut cuts for my bloggy friend, Lisa. Don't you just love the Cricut feature "Auto Fill"? Yeah, boy!

Have a great day!

I may not be able to post again until we get back from the mountains early next week. So if you don't hear from me.... it's because I'm chilling while camping.

Hugs,
Janis

Snail Greetings!

I guess I'm just chatty today because this is my 4th post for the day. LOL Scroll down to see the other posts... one's about Weight Watchers, one's about swapping, and the other is a card I did this morning for 365 Cards and My Pink Stamper.


I mailed my Mama a card with a turtle cut on it from the Cricut Walk In My Garden cartridge last week. She loved the little critter and asked if I'd cut some for her. She's going to come over to my house in the next week or so for me to make some Cricut cuts for her, but I thought I'd go ahead and mail her some cuts for her to play with before then.


Once again my pic is loading sideways. I'm not even going to stress about it. I think you can get the idea without the frustration of me trying to figure out why it decides to load pics sideways at random..... must move on.... must not be OCD about this........ I also included some of the snails like on the card below for her to play with. I just love this crazy paper for these snails!


Do you guys hear me just a giggling over here every time I use my google eyes? LOL

I'm going to mail this card to my daughter who just moved into her house for this school year. She's not living on campus like she did last year. She's renting... or I should say WE are renting her a duplex she is sharing with a roommate. She wants some mail and told me to dig out some of my card stash to keep her mailbox full. :) Gotta love the encouragement for me to keep on crafting! :)

Just think... it's almost Friday! That means, Bonnie will go to work with Tom for 1/2 a day (school field trip - don't you just love home schooling?!!!) while I get groceries and pack for our camping trip to the mountains! Yeah!! I'm so excited!

Hugs,
Janis

Weight Watchers Update



Please scroll down for 2 other posts from today, one is a card project and one is a swap invitation.

Bonnie and I went to our 2nd meeting for Weight Watchers yesterday. The crowd was a little larger this time. I am happy to say that our total miles walked last week were 11.59! Woooo-Whoooo!!!

I lost 2.6 lbs since our first meeting! I'll take it! My own personal goal is to reach my ideal weight by next April. It's a high goal and will require a lot of discipline, but it's doable. I'm on my way!

Just wanted to share.

I'm looking for great Crock Pot recipes. Anyone have any to share? I love using my crock pot but tend to make the same things all the time. Please comment on your fav crock pot recipe so we can all enjoy it too! Thanks!!!!

Which reminds me... I need to go put the chicken in the crock pot....

Swap Anyone?





I would love to swap some Cricket cuts for some Cuddlebug embossed papers. Anyone interested?

Even though I would love a Cuddlebug, we just can't swing that. So.... my little brain was working on ideas last night whilst I couldn't sleep.... did you see smoke?..... lol

Here's what I was brainstorming.... Would anyone be interested in swapping some Cuddlebug embossed papers for some Cricut cut images? I thought we could swap the same amount of paper. For instance if you embossed 12 sheets of paper, I'd cut 12 sheets of images.

I only have 4 Cricut cartridges - the ones that came with my Cricut bundle. They are:
Indie Art
Walk In My Garden
Home Accents
Plantin Schoolbook

I'm not sure if this sounds like a good idea or not, so if you have any other suggestions for how to swap, please chime in.

Food for thought,
Janis

Dear God Series #3


Good morning!

Today I am combining 2 different challenges into one card. (That's a first for me, I think.)

MyPinkStamper.com is asking us to make a project related to Back To School.

365 Cards is asking us to use a sign in our project.

Voila! Here is my card.... and as an added Bonus, I've used it in my own series of cards called, "Dear God." Fun, fun, fun!

The papers used in this project are DCWV Nana's Nursery Baby Girl. I don't know if you can tell by the photo, but the flowery paper is glittery. Oooooo, pretty glitter....

I used DJ Inkers graphic for the signpost and DJ Inkers font called "DJ Signpost". I love my PrintMaster, and that's what I used to print the image. The sign says, "Back To School."

The sentiment to the right says, "Dear God, Please Bless Our School. Amen."

Oh, and I used the Treading Water punch for the edge.

On most of my paper projects I use Elmer's Glue Sticks. To get the paper border to stick to the glittered paper, I had to use Fiskar's Photo Tabs. They are great too, and I sure do go through them!

Have a fun day!

Live Simply


The Pink Stamper has changed her blog address to My Pink Stamper.com. She is celebrating having over a million hits to her site! Wow! That's a lot of hits!! All this week she will be giving a challenge and a prize. Go check it out!

Today she is remembering back to the 80's and the one crafting item she just had to have. She's asking us to remember back and post a project with whatever crafting item was on our HOT list that we just HAD to have. Mine was a brayer.

This card is so easy to make, but looks so cool. :)

All you have to do is be SURE you use glossy paper. No, photo paper that is glossy does not work. I know. I tried it. Or then again, maybe it will work for you and I'm just unable to make it happen?

Using my brayer, I inked up the roller with a Stampin' Up yellow ink pad. Then I brayed over the entire front surface of the card.

I punched a large circle and used my Zig 2-way glue pen to put the circle temporarily on the card where you want to "moon" or "sun" to be.

Next, I inked up my brayer again with a different color. In this card I used a soft orange. I wanted the look of sunset or early morning.

After braying the second color, remove the circle to reveal a perfectly round yellow sun. So pretty.

Next I used simple stamps that could be stamped in black for a silhouette affect and added a sentiment that says, "Live Simply".

I just love this card!

There are tons of people out there who also use the brayer to make beautiful fading, colorful backgrounds. I have never been successful in that attempt. My lines always show and never blend to perfection. But it is a lot of fun, if you want to give it a try.

Thank you again for all your comments! You guys rock!

Hugs,
Janis

Pocket Full of Sunshine


Natasha Bedingfield's song, "Pocket Full of Sunshine" is running through my head. When she sings the part, "Take me away, a secret place, a sweet escape, take me away..." I keep thinking about us heading back to the mountains for a camping trip this weekend. I so can't wait. :)

So inspired by that song, and following the 365 Cards Day 157: Imagine This: Sunflowers, here is my card for this morning.

This is the rest of the 12x12 card stock I cut in half yesterday. This card is 6x6. I used My Mind's Eye, Everyday Tango paper, my Treading Water punch, an oval and circle punch for the flower center and petals, and K&Company jewel brad for the flower center.

I sponged the card with Close to Cocoa ink from Stampin' Up, crinkled the flower petals and center for a more 3-D effect, and let it go with that.

It's very simple, almost a little too plain, but I like it.

This is also the 2nd card in my "Dear God" series. The sentiment is hand written and says, "Dear God, Thank You for friends and flowers. Amen".

Have you made a Dear God card yet? Leave us a link in the comment section so we can all come by and check it out.

Also, I just want to say thank you so much for all the beautiful comments you guys always leave me. They mean so much. I really appreciate you visiting my blog and taking the time to leave me a comment. I always try to go visit your blogs too. You guys are all so talented! I love looking at your creations and hearing what's going on in your world.

Okay, gotta run. Bonnie and I are off to our Weight Watchers meeting this morning. I have to load up the car with some things Kati needs for her new apartment and swing by there too.

Have a great day, everyone! Don't forget to Pause, Dream, and Enjoy your day!

Hugs,
Janis

Counting Sheep


Here is a 6 x 6 card I made this afternoon. I don't remember making a card this size before, and it was almost too small with the stamps I wanted to use. Don't ask me what kind of envelope I'm going to use, because I haven't figured that part out yet. :)

This is my submission for the Paper Cutz Challenge #2 to make a card, layout, or craft project using a critter.

The stamps I used are from Stampin' Up called Definitely Decorative Counting Sheep. The inks are also from Stamping Up.

The border at the bottom is made with my new Treading Water punch I ordered from Joann's. (Love this punch!)

After stamping the card, I thought it looked a little dull. So I added clear glitter glue to everything! Glitter glue is addictive!

I also added some green and pink paper strips under the punched border to show some contrast.

The sentiment was hand written. I was going to use a cute border and print it from the computer, but it looked too busy.

The sentiment says, "Dear God, Please make all my friend's dreams come true. Amen."

I hope to start a series of "Dear God" cards.

Please leave a comment! I would love to see what kind of "Dear God" card you would make! Leave a link to it so we can all come enjoy it too!

I should have sponged the edges of the card, but oh well.... I like it anyway.

Hugs!
Janis

Mini Album Fun, Fun, Fun!

Hello all my bloggy friends! Have you seen Mary's new video on Cardz For U or at Cardz TV? Hop on over there and check out all the mini albums she is going to give us a tutorial on. So many ideas! I can't wait to learn how to make them all!! I LOVE mini albums! Inspired by Mary (and anxiously awaiting the first mini album tutorial video from her), I made a little mini album this morning. I have this DCWV designer paper, The Stack 6, that I ordered recently. There are 180 sheets of fun, beautiful, and inspirational patterned sheets in that stack all screaming,"USE ME! USE ME!" I picked 3 papers from that stack that coordinated plus 2 solid colors from another stack to make this album. The inside "book" pages were made from one 12 x 12 sheet of pattern paper. Yepper! Just one sheet! Can't beat that! Score one 12 x 12 patterned paper at 3", 6", and 9". Turn sideways and repeat. You should have a full sheet of squares now. Cut the outside square lines until you reach one square from the top. Leave the middle score line alone. Turn the paper all the way around until the 2 cut lines are at the top. Now, cut the middle score line up leave one square uncut. If you gently spread the paper apart, it should look like a "W" or "M" depending on which way you hold it. Now, start in one bottom corner, and fan fold all squares. When you reach the top, continue folding the squares up and over and down until the entire sheet has been folded. That is all the inside pages of your book! For the covers, use chipboard or any stiff material. I used a thick junk mail flyer. I cut it just a little larger than the inside pages and covered both sides with solid cardstock paper. (Sorry, I don't have exact measurements for you, I hate using a ruler and tend to measure and mark with my fingernail where to cut.) After both sides of the front and back cover have been covered with cardstock, lay them down side by side with a little space between them to allow for the book thickness. Place a ribbon all the way across both pages including the space between, and adhere it. I used Fiskars photo splits to adhere my ribbon (which was bought at Michael's). Put adhesive all over the inside front cover including across the ribbon and place the book pages on top. Squeeze to make sure you got a good bonding. Repeat for the back over. You should see the ribbon sitck out so that you can tie your book shut. And the extra allowance of ribbon at the spine should allow for the page thickness. I hope this made sense to you. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to leave me a comment and I'll respond as quickly as possible. I cut a small bit of patterned paper for the outside front and back of the book. I left a little bit of the solid color showing all the way around. I made a couple of pages with pockets and cut out paper tags. I used paper for the pull tabs folded and stapled to the top of the tags instead of using ribbon this time. I had taken some pics of the inside pages, but am having a hard time getting them to upload. They look right on my computer, but when I upload them, they are all turned sideways. Can't figure that one out. So... enjoy the sideways pics! :) lol Hugs! Can't wait to see your mini books you create! Leave us a link so we can all check them out. And don't forget to hop on over to Mary's blog! She's so creative!!

Beautiful Day For A Walk

Tom, Bonnie and I just walked 3 miles around town. It's a good thing us Southern Bells glow instead of sweat. :)

I haven't walked that far at one time in...... probably since I had to in gym class.

Tom is very active and very fit... Bonnie and I not so much. But we are trying!

Here's a pic of Tom at one of his 5K runs. I think this was 1 or 2 years ago?
(he's the one in red)

I hope everyone is having a nice Sunday. I would love to get our ice cream maker out, but I don't have any of the ingredients. I think I'll put that on my shopping list for next weekend.

Until tomorrow. I'm itching to do some scrapbooking.

Hugs,
Janis

Bonnie's ABC Book


Here's Bonnie's ABC Book I made this morning.

I used note size envelopes (these are the smaller envelopes, not the regular letter size ones).

Each envelope flap is glued shut and the right side edge is trimmed off so things can slide in and out.

The left side has 2 holes punched with the Crop-a-dile and binder rings inserted.

There are 27 envelopes, one for each letter and the cover "page".

All of the envelopes have a cardstock piece of paper slipped inside that hang out just a little. I stapled tabs on each cardstock end.

None of the envelopes are decorated or covered with pretty patterend paper. I left them all blank except for the cover page. And all of the inserts are blank at this time. I figure as we cover each letter, I'll have Bonnie write the letter on the outside of the envelope and then maybe draw or cut and paste a picture of something with that letter on the insert while also writing the word herself on the back of the insert.

I'll let you know how we progress over time. Very simple project. No extra ribbons, frills, or doo-dads. I don't want anything to distract her from what we are trying to learn, which is our alphabet.

Happy Friday!

Are you all doing your Friday dance? We are!

Bonnie has been so very good in the mornings for our walks. Today we walked another 1.51 miles. That brings our weekly total to 5.12 miles!! Yeah!!


This morning she decided to bring along her dog. She has lots of stuffed animals, but 2 that are her favorites and stay on her bed with her at night. One is "dog" that she has on her shoulders here. The other is a lion she calls "King".

Bonnie is so precious. I don't know if I told you or not, but she had a mole removed Wednesday from her foot. It's healing pretty well, but it is bothering her a little today and was a little last night too. Hopefully keeping her socks on will help it to heal faster and keep the temptation away from her to pick at it.

In other news...

I'm still staying within my Weight Watchers points for the day. Very happy I've been able to keep a handle on my eating. I'm even making wiser choices. Although this morning I decided I needed a treat. I haven't had any chocolate or cookies or "junk" food in a couple of weeks (that's a first for me). I bought a cookie at the gas station this morning on our walk. I decided I had the points to use and a treat would be nice today.

I must say... I haven't had sugar in so long (feels like forever), that I couldn't take more than 4 small bites of this cookie. It's good, don't get me wrong, but way sweet. I've also discovered that without adding sugar to my foods for this long, even fresh fruit tastes so much sweeter than I remember. I had pineapple yesterday and couldn't believe how sweet and good it was.

So I put the rest of the cookie (more than half left) in a zippie and maybe have some of it again tomorrow.

Moving on to crafting notes...

I'm going to try to make Bonnie an alphabet mini book. Anyone ever made one of these before? Have any ideas for me? I'd love to see a link to your creation and hear your thoughts.

Have a blessed day!

Long Lazy Days



Good morning! I told you I just love these Paperbag Greetings!

I made another one this morning to mail to my Mama. I ripped the paper edges instead of using my Provo Craft paper trimmer.



The turtle was made with Cricut Cartridge Walk in My Garden. I added a fun googly eye to him. He's so cute. The orange and pink tabs were made with Cricut Cartridge Plantin Schoolbook.

The screen is a left over scrap from when we screened in our front porch.

I added a ribbon for the insert to pull out the message. Ribbon from Michael's.

Paper from DCWV The Stack 6... I love this pink, brown, and white paper. So soft and pretty.

The bracket was cut with my Cricut also... can't remember which cartridge... sorry. It was in my scrap drawer along with all the other Cricut elements I used today.

The sticker says, "long lazy days". It's from my 3-ring binder where I store all my sticker sheets either in page protectors or negative sleeves. I bought a seasonal pack of stickers from Wal-Mart probably last year and I'm still using them. This sentiment was from the summer page of stickers.

And of course the card base is a brown paper lunch bag with the top cut off enough so that it will fit into a regular card envelope.

I challenge you guys to make a paperbag greeting. Leave a link in the comment section so we
can come check it out!

The pic below shows the back.


In Other News....

Bonnie and I walked 1.51 miles this morning. She's doing so good with cooperating! I'm tracking all my food and drinks for Weight Watchers. I've been a good girl! I'm so happy that Weight Watchers gives me the freedom to make whatever food choices I choose. I only have to commit to stay within my points range. And it's so easy! I love their system.

When I go shopping (which I hate to do), I'll look at an item and the price and say, "Do I want this $10 worth?" Now with Weight Watchers, I look in my food cabinet and say, "Do I want this 4 points worth or would I rather have this for 4 points?" The cool thing is, smarter food choices cost less points. So if you choose wisely, you can still eat your 4 points, but eat a lot more with a wiser, healthier food choice. I love it.

Anyone else following Weight Watchers? I'd love to hear your stories.

If you have a prayer request, please leave me a comment and let me know how to pray for you.

Hugs to everyone this fine Thursday,
Janis

Bug on Walk


Bonnie was so good yesterday! And this morning she understood no Pop Tart with no walk. She walked 1.10 miles with me today.

We saw this interesting bug on the sidewalk during our morning walk. It's a Cicada. It's very large and his wings are so transparent. It was actually a beautiful creature. Good thing it didn't make any sound as I was leaning way over to photograph it within inches of touching it or I would have woken up the whole neighborhood with my screaming. :)

Check out this site to see a cool gif of a cicada bug being "changed" to one with wings that looks just like the one we saw this morning on our walk. And also, click on the sounds from Greece to hear what it sounds like. Very cool.

I was really tickled yesterday with making the Paperbag Greetings. I'm thinking of doing another project along those lines today. Have you created a Paperbag Greeting? If so, please leave a comment with your link so we can all check out your artwork.

I attended my first Weight Watcher's meeting yesterday. Well... the first one in 3 years anyway. It felt so good to be around other men and women who have the same goal, struggles, triumphs, and success stories. There were 4 of us there who were returning members after being absent for several years. I'm looking forward to seeing results.

Have a great morning! I'll check back with you later on with a project hopefully.

Hugs,
Janis

Paperbag Greetings


I was pulling out a blank card and envelope from my overstuffed shelf, when a paper bag fluttered to the floor. Come on, guys, inspirating is fluttering my way... was I just supposed to ignore it?

I decided to make a greeting card from a paperbag. Why not? I have a whole pack of them... might as well use 'em up in some fun, creative way... right?




So I stuck the paper bag into a card envelope to see how much would stick out of the top, and cut that part off. (If you haven't noticed by now, I hate measuring things. I must have missed that day in school, because whenever I use a ruler, it never quite turns out exactly right.)

Then I sponged the entire part I was going to use with Stampin' Up Rose Red. Got some pink paper from My Mind's Eye Everyday Tango paper pack, and some fun "chic" stickers from my 3-ring binder where I store all my stickers in negative sleeves and page protectors.

I covered the front and back of the bag with the pink paper leaving just a smidgen of the bag edge showing. I used rough cuts and not too evenly spaced placement.

I cut one more piece of pink paper and added a ribbon pull tab to the top and stuck it inside the bag.

I plan on sending this card to my friend whom I've known since I was 12 years old. I'm going to remind her of all those sleepovers we had when sleep wasn't really the priority, but gossip and daydreaming was. I hope she likes it.



I added this sticker to the back of the "card". It says, "When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against us? - Pam Brown. It doesn't really match the whimsical theme of the front, but it speaks volumes to our friendship.

Why don't you make a paperbag greeting? I'd love to see your ideas! Please leave a comment with a link so we can all go check it out!

Hugs, smiles, and prayers for you,
Janis

Birds are Chirping!

Good morning, all my bloggy friends! I'm so sorry I haven't uploaded any crafts lately. I'm going to try to get a project uploaded a little later on this morning before we hit the road for out-of-town errands. We are probably going to be gone all day! :(

I'm going to start Weight Watchers today and the meeting I chose is in Columbia... 45 minutes away. But everything we do is almost always in Columbia, so no big deal.

While we are there, I'm going to take Bonnie to see my parents who called over the weekend saying they missed us and when were we coming by again.

Then I have to take Kati to sign her new lease for the house she'll be living in this year for college and get her key. She can't move in and live there until this Saturday, but they said she can get the key and paint now and move some stuff if she wants before then.

And then Bonnie has a dermatologist appointment this afternoon at 3:30. All of these things are in Columbia. Which means we'll be gone all day. :( Bonnie usually doesn't do too well with lots of transitions from one place to another, so I'm praying she will cooperate and not get feisty.


Yesterday morning, Bonnie and I walked 0.7 miles around the neighborhood. This morning, she was not wanting to be cooperative and we were only able to go around the block. When we got back home, I sat down and tried to talk to her about obedience, cooperating, safety outside... I don't know how much she understands. But she did understand that she didn't get her Pop Tart for breakfast. Instead she got a banana. She wasn't too happy about that. A Pop Tart is suppose to be her treat for walking with me and being a good girl.

Do any of you guys do Weight Watchers? I'd love to hear what you have to say. And I'd love to share recipes!

You guys are so awesome! I love all your comments and try to visit your blogs too. I will say that a couple of people have left comments and when I go to their profile, I either can't get on their blog, or don't see one. So please leave a link to your blog so I can come visit you too and leave some comment love. Plus, I want to know what's going on in your life. You know, everyone has a story... and I want to hear them all. I love people!

One more thing.... I just want you all to know that I'm praying for you. I don't know who all reads my blog and doesn't leave a comment, but God does. I've asked Him to bless each one who passes by, protect you, and encourage you. You are important. You matter. You are not alone.

Hugs,
Janis

Homeschooling Today

We homeschool our special needs daughter, Bonnie. She's on her own little path in life, and we love having such a major part in her education.

Today is her first day of school! We got up this morning, put on our shoes, and had PE class outside walking 0.7 miles around the neighborhood.

We practiced good road safety by staying on the sidewalk, walking facing traffic, and stopped at all stop signs looking both ways before crossing.

She even practiced her social skills by saying "morning" to two other women out walking this morning. It's was such lovely weather. Cool, dry, the promise of sunshine to come, and the company was precious. :)

When we came home, we practiced good health skills by washing up. Then we had our breakfast. She's looking forward to a visit to the library a little later on today. That's her favorite place to go!

I hope all of you have a blessed day. Remember to pause and think of those in your life. Pray for them. You never know what someone else is going through.

Smiles,
Janis

Table Rock

Hi, guys! I've been away on a little mini-vacation. My husband, Tom, and I went to Table Rock with our daughter, Bonnie. We shared a campsite with Tom's brother and his wife. We camped in tents and our days were great! The nights though... well.... let's just say the Cicada Bugs were LOUD! And it was so cool at night in a tent that was a tad bit too small for our comfort. But overall, we are so glad we went! The above pic is Tom and our special needs daughter, Bonnie. She has a little trouble walking long distances and some issues with balance, so we took just a short hike Saturday morning. She enjoyed watching the river and climbing on the rocks. Tom held her hand the whole time to help with her balance. I think he was more worn out than anyone just from saving Bonnie so many times from falling over tree roots sticking up in the path and walking across stone paths through water. At some points the path was so narrow, we had to stand aside to let others pass us. (We go very slow.) This is Tom's brother, Bill, and his wife Donna. LOVE them!! They are so fun to hang out with! These pictures were taken with my iPhone, so I know the quality is not that great. Above you can sort of see Table Rock in the distance. I wish I could have zoomed in a little. My husband is very active, very fit, very into eating right and taking care of your body. He loves physical challenges, and decided that Saturday he was going to hike up to the top of Table Rock. The rest of us stayed at the campsite and enjoyed pics he'd send as updates. The above pic he took himself with his iPhone. I told him he looked scared like he'd just seen a bear. :) LOL He said he was tired. At one point, there was a rattlesnake crossing his path. He got a pic of that too, but it's on his phone and I haven't uploaded it yet. I'll post it later. I'm glad I didn't see any snakes! My scream would have been heard throughout North Carolina and South Carolina! Overall, the company was great, the food was yummy, the weather was PERFECT, and it was so nice to get away for a while. We didn't have cell phone coverage most of the time, so that was nice too. :) Hopefully, I'll get some pics printed and work on creating some scrapbook pages. And as always, whenever we go camping, I make a family newsletter of our stories and experiences. I need to work on that too tomorrow. Have a great evening. Janis

Sympathy Card


I made this sympathy card this morning. My daughter's boyfriend's granddaddy passed away this week and I thought I'd send them this card. How appropriate that over at 365 Cards today they are asking us to make sympathy cards with no sentiment on the outside.

I used Cricut Cartridge Indie Art to make the butterfly. The card base is DCWV textured cards. Paper and ribbon from scraps.

I hope everyone has a blessed day!

Movie Monday

It's Movie Monday over at 365 Cards! Here are their requirements,
"Let the Twilight movie inspire your card. Use a black card base or black background, patterned paper where the dominant color is red, and embellish with either glitter or rhinestones. Anything else goes."

I love Twilight (yes, I'm in my 40's and still I love it!) LOL

Lately, I've been using stamped images on my cards that I've colored. Today I felt inspired to go another route.

This card was so easy to do!

Card: DCWV black textured card
Paper: DCWV The Stack 6 red, white, black vertical stripes and black patterned paper
Sticker: Mrs. Grossman's apple, medium
Glitter: Martha Stewart glitter applied with Zig 2-Way glue pen
Tag: Paper Crafting Collection #41891

Let's see what you come up with! Post a link below so we can all see your card inspired by Twilight.
