not much in a chattin mood today … so i thought i'd just share a card i made last week. and this definately looks better in person. we've had gloomy, dark days here lately … hard to take decent photos of my projects.
i'm very grateful and appreciative for the hero arts stamps that show up on my doorstep from time to time. they're all gorgeous and i always look forward to playing with them. on this card, i used 3 new stamps. the scattered flowers design block, hello tree, and hello circles. i'm not one for the monocramatic look … so i'm actually surprised i went with all blue and white. i stamped the design block onto a piece of white cardstock … and then just cut it into 3 pieces. i stamped the woodgrain circle stamp with blue ink, onto blue pattern paper. kind of a subtle look. the tree was a last minute decision. the circle was already on there … so i just took a chance and stamped it right onto the card. amazingly, it turned out pretty straight. i know, it's a clear stamp and you can see where it's stamping. but you'd be amazed at how i can mess things like that up. lol!
and i noticed i had some increased blog traffic coming though here the last day or two. and yes, i can see where it comes from. lol! so i thought i would clear up any confusion right here. those that know me, know that this is all said in a very lighthearted way … totally not meant to be taken too serious. btw … these following comments are in answer to some wondering/curious/questioning talks i found on one partictular site. so all of my regular lurkers … you're all good!
no, i'm not crazy … for scrapbooking or for any other reason. yes, i have a lot of product after doing this for 13 years … and i'm lucky enough that some of it just magically comes to me. i scrap standing up … which is why i have no cutouts in my workarea to put my feet. yes, this is a part time job in some ways (some weeks, it's more like full-time) … in addition to my full-time job running a daycare in my home. and yes, i use "lol" a lot … i think i use it to make sure that everyone knows i'm being slightly funny/sarcastic and not too serious about whatever i'm talking about. it's all good though. however you came to my blog … i'm glad you're here and hope you can find something entertaining or cute or inspiring to make you want to come back 😉
