Today was, in a word....rough. Not the worst ever, but filled with unexplainable tantrums and tudes from the 2.5 year old in the house hold. If he wasn't so cute he would have been in trouble LONG ago, ha! There is a reason God makes kids cute!!
I did, however, manage to steal a few minutes out for myself to get a few challenges done.
The first card was for Cupcake Craft Challenges. It was a double challenge, really. A sketch as well as a color challenge. Blue, cream, brown...beautiful! But I was having trouble mainly with the shape of the sentiment. It was a toughie for me, but I didn't want to give up. Leave it to the power of clear stamps and flexability! Woot! The image is from Sarah Kay. My friend Jenny visited last week and she let me stamp as many of her stamps as I could ink up! It was great! All of this paper was scrap from my stash. Woot!
The last card, this evening was made for ICS. Their sketch was pretty so I got to work. It was a bit of a challenge because I really have been SO antsy to do a fall card, and the images I wanted to use just didn't work with the circle shape. ::sigh:: So I went with this cute lil critter. I believe...( and I could be terribly mistaken) that this is a clear dollar image. If not then its from TAC....Huh....ANYwho, I have been hoarding this paper for about a year. Got it on clearance for 2 something at Target. It is from Marcella Kay. The red (not sure if you can tell) is red with embossed leaves on it. I love it! Anyway, thanks for checking in! Happy almost weekend! Ha!
