A Card for M

Posted on | August 26, 2008 | 33 Comments |

Ok, it’s a bit on the crazy side but hey, it’s for M and what’s important was that she LOVED it. I used Laura’s sketch from 2Sketches4You. My first one and as you can see… I had too much fun.

I didn’t do any stamping, I just used papers from:

Collage Press journaling paper (the tan notebook looking thing), Tinkering Ink (the butterflies), Love Elsie (clouds and tree paper), October Afternoon (grass), Cosmo Cricut (tree), Making Memories (blue paper from the Passport kit), black SU cardstock, blingage, and just alphas. The little tree… I drew that in Illustrator and brought it into my Klic-n-Kut. It’s chipboard covered with pattern paper.

I was going to make a regular card but I have too many of that already (I’m thinking of opening an Etsy shop or sell them at a craft event in town close to Christmas). I haven’t made Emma anything, besides scrapbook pages which are in albums, for a while and so I did this. She’s always so patient with me. Letting me play with my hobby while she either watches a movie or work with me. A little thank you from mommy {::SMILES}. I told her she can put a picture in there but she said no. She just want it to sit on her dresser so that she can look at it everyday.

Ok… have a great Tuesday! Goin’ to work… goin’ to work…

Just to let you know, the lady at the check out at Hobby Lobby second guessed the thickers, but they were plainly in the sticker aisle right under a 50% sign. She said it included 3D stickers, so she did half off on them too. I wanted to buy one of each of ALL the thickers, but I was trying to keep my purchases right at $20 (since that’s what I had a gift card for!), and I was only $3.72 over!!
