UGLY BIZ CARD CONTEST.....VOTE NOW!!!

FINALLY, huh? Ok, I've numbered each picture & put the artist's name & a brief description alongside the number. There are TEN entries. Please, vote for your favorite biz cards by leaving a comment. Vote once. Anonymous votes will not be counted. The final day for voting will be Thursday September 13th. I'm also pulling a random #'d comment from the mix & that person will win a prize too!! (I think I got everyone, but I'd feel really bad if I missed someone--as in: if your cards got mixed up in my whirlwind of craftiness. Let me know if I did!) If you have any questions about the cards, ask in the "comments" section as well. Everyone & anyone can vote! Tell your friends to vote! Your grandma! Your dog!! Thanks everyone, they look great! And I'm one lucky gal who has been rained upon from biz card heaven!!!!







#1. Geri @ Altered Crow used a variation of splattered paint & colorful strips or squares of painted cardstock. The card designs also all include a hearted bling-bling!

#2. Melisa @ Melissap's Shop designed cards with a grommet in each corner, blue silky ribbon adorning the front, a viney-floral stamp & coordinating decorative paper adhered to the reverse. An "aged" look has also been given with distressing ink/paint.

#3. Jennifer R. @ Nellableu. OK, Jennifer almost didn't send these in because she misread the directions & created art on the backside only. I insisted she send them in! It's a great idea too. Not only do customers get my info on the front, but they can then frame their card for a sweet piece of mini-art. I'm so keeping the milkshake one.

#4. Carrie created these cards with splatters of paint, square picture cut-outs & recycled words from mags! Pretty crafty!! The back is also spattered with colorful paint.

#5. Meredith @ Notuboc used colored pencils, markers, embossing to create unique designs 3-D style.

#6. Jeanetta @ Splendid Designs used works she has created & then ran the cards through her printer!

#7. Jen @ Jen Bowles Design used sweet colors & simple shapes to create lovely designs bordering the top edge of each card.

#8. Christine @ Bella Colle used stamps & colored pencils to decorate the cards.

#9. Claire @ Absolutely Small used markers to freehand flowing creations on each card.

#10. Beck @ Little Daisy Chains went a-stampin' with green & pink ink to create cards that'll get ya in the WhiMSy love party mood!

P.S. Go vote now! I will also put a link in each blog entry from tomorrow until the final voting day so more people will have a chance to see it & vote!! Thanks again my little biz card artist friends--& thanks to those who vote! I'll be contacting those who volunteered to donate prizes to get that squared away too! THANKYA!
