I made this card for my friends baby shower a few weeks back. I have wanted to use that cute little platypus for so long and finally got the chance. You like my bad distressing? I was going for a cloudy look and grassy knoll. It didn’t work lol, but I didn’t have time to start over and I hate wasting paper. But its ok the card is still really cute. 

Happy Birthday!

*Hero Arts Rubber Stamp DESIGNER WOODGRAIN

*American Crafts Zing! CLEAR Embossing Powder

*Hero Arts Clear Stamps HEYDAY SENTIMENTS Studio Calico

*May Arts NATURAL Twine String Burlap

I made this card for my dad’s birthday coming up soon. Sometimes it’s hard to come up with masculine cards. This one is nature oriented, and the green and browns make it feel more masculine, even if there are butterflies on it J its still cute. Also I highly recommend the SEI brand papers, you can find them at Michaels. They have awesome themes and they are high quality paper. I love them.

I made the background for this card and it sat on my desk for literally weeks. I just didn’t like it, but I don’t waste anything so I saved it. Finally I decided to finish it. And I loved it. It is so sparkly and blue. Reminds me of the ocean. Kristina Werner is a wonderful crafter and I get a lot of inspiration from her. 

Took a little break.

Had to take a small break from card sketch Saturday. 

School started back for me after a small break so I really had to concentrate on that more then crafting. I haven’t even set foot in my craft room, sniff :,( ... But I’m going to try to catch up on the last two sketches this week, and if I cant, then I will have a new card sketch Saturday video up 8/11/12. What I will probably do is do the sketches and cards but not make full videos for them because the editing process takes the most time. So keep an eye out for new blog posts. I hope to get back in the swing of things soon.
