So I came home after a long day out with friends. I decided to take a peek and see if the CAS was up for the morning, and it was. I liked the sketch challenge and for some strange reason at almost midnight, I was in the mood to create.
So, I went over to my stack of wood mount stamps saw the lovely as a tree set, and thought, ok, let's make a card with this. It will be winter themed.
So I stamped the image in early espresso. Then highlighted it with glitter gel pen. Then I went into my ribbon drawer, knowing I wanted to use ribbon as my accent. I came across this lovely rose colored ribbon. So I cut three pieces and did the little V thing.
I then mounted the image on early espresso, and adheared the ribbon to the back. But I felt it needed to be softened up a bit, so I added pink pirouette to the back of it.
I knew I wanted white next and since it was winter themed, I wanted to use my snowflake ef, so I dry embossed it with my CB. I then mounted it on early esspresso.
I need to get all my crafting in now. After next week, I am shut down for a while, as I get the last of my surgeries to my left elbow. This will be 6&7. Seven years, 7 surgeries between my two arms. This is going to be a doosey too, because I am getting both sides of my elbow done at one time. (a first for me). So I will be out of commission for a while.
I am so glad I got to play today. I hope the next few challenges inspire me, because I won't be able to create for a while, and I love to be creative.
Have a stellar day everyone, and God Bless!!!
