I am so looking forward to getting these cards. June should be lots of Mexican cooking at my house. Every recipe looks delicious.

Dang! If you think these cards look good on your screen, you should see them "in person." You're going to be very pleased when you get the download links for all these cards!

And now the pressure is on to come up with a starter kit for June. I don't want to disappoint any of you after seeing all the great work you did in May...this is easily one of my favorite months so far! Super, super job, everyone!

What a relief -- I finally got my own card done! : ) You can see my recipe for Verlean's Taco Salad here.

Here are two recipes I am submitting for this month's recipe challenge and my blank recipe card. This is the first time I've ever done a recipe challenge, and it was a lot of fun as well as a learning experience. I actually like the first card I made better, but it was a tabbed card and I couldn't figure out a way to save it as a .jpg file that would preserve the transparency around the tab at the top of the card. This happened because I had used the yellow index card as a clipping mask on top of the multicolored paper (below) and then erased most of the paper to make it look like it was only edging the yellow card. Back to the drawing board, as they say!

Thanks again, Maurine, for challenging us to complete another recipe card.

This has been such a fun month -- with lots and lots of familiar faces and several new participants. I'm happy every one of you joined in! Give me a few days to pull all the cards together and get them ready for download -- I'll be sending the links to all of you soon. And with that, the May challenge is officially closed!
