Uggos for Allison-AFSS43

Allison is having a "slam yourself" contest of sorts this week. To play the game, you have to post one or more of the ugliest cards you have ever made. Now I personally have a box full of them and don't usually photograph them either. I am just saving the uggos ones to use a parts of new uggos-an odd way to recycle, I guess but sometimes it works.

Or I give them to unsuspecting children (Hi Kayla!)

Anyways, these four actually made it to my blog sometime in the past two years. So here ya go, Allison. I am sending ya a barf bag by cyberspace if you need it. Like a pregnant woman needs an excuse to upchuck?

Just using the bits and pieces in a bin of paper. Could have been good.Could have.But wasn't.

My heart was in the right place-this was for Toby. He is now 4!

Using alcohol inks for the first time-it needs glitter or some gilding (which wasn't available at the time)

My first experience with Staz-On Ink. The stuff still makes me swoony and head achy. This is probably the worst ever. It was a demo we did at my first stamp convention.

Now I go back to trying to find the bottom of my desk and decide if I am game enough to get up Thanksgiving morning to do a Turkey Trot.

  3. I think the second one would have to be my least favorite, but overall, not too bad for uggos :^) Isn't it funny how our styles change.

  10. Hey Jan! LOL! This sounds like a fun challenge! I actually have a stack of ugly cards. I've kept them all these years because they humble me. LOL!

    Your ugly cards are actually not ugly but I have to say. . .the second card, I'm not sure about that pin that you stuck through the cardstock.

    I just realized you last posted here on November 9th. . .have you been creating? Just wondering!

    Oh, I love your comments on my blog. Too funny. I love the losing weight one! Made me chuckle!! Ha!!

  11. You know the old saying, "beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder," right? I love that alcohol ink background one - it can be salvaged! I've not tried 'em yet!
