First let me apologize for the not so good pictures. The lighting just isn't right today and I don't have any of those fancy lights to get the perfect picture...lol I move around the house shooting in various spots til I find one that is acceptable.
I don't like to use the flash as it washes the colours out but today I had no choice....
This first card was made for Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge. I'm a little late getting to it but I MUST always do it ;)

Great cards Dawn - I love those funky trees! I know what you mean about the lighting . .. rainy days are the worst! I just bought one of those light box things on ebay - seems to be pretty good so far, not to pricey either. :)
You always do such a Great job on Beate's challenges...

Love this card!!! Great bow, too - did your DH do it -- LOL!!! I've heard of DH's taking photos, but never tying bows -- made me chuckle -- my DH is great, but I doubt he would tie my bow -- LOL!!!
Your cards are fabulous despite the poor lighting!
Just an FYI, an OTT light is on sale at JoAnns on Friday for $29.99. The sale is a one day sale so if you're interested in an OTT light, it'll be a great time to snatch it up. Those puppies typically cost over $50 minimum.
