I know I've been gone for a very long time and I'd like to say I have an excuse but it's kinda lame. Here goes nothing:
So sometime in June/July I made a scrapbook album for my grandmother.
Then I made a very large model from a song. (see last post)
Then I started school.
Then I started up a vlogging YouTube channel (see http://www.youtube.com/user/sawthatday I'm Friday)
Then I made a bunch of small crafts (none all that interesting to share on a blog)
And through all of this I never cleaned up the craft corner once.
The moral of this story is it's really hard to craft when your table is half a foot deep in things you did five months ago.
So now that we have the "excuse" out of the way, above is a picture of a card I made once I cleaned up. Nothing too special but when you haven't really done anything in a long time it can be impressive.
To make the greenish blueish piece I squirted some alcohol ink on a craft sheet as I smooshed a piece of glossy card stock into it. Yes it is very simple. Then I stamped the tree and the "with love" in black Stazon. Then I just folded some pink card stock, rounded the corners, tied on some ribbon, put on the green piece and called it done.
I have some posts planned already so hopefully I can get in the trend of posting regularly.
It is great to have you back in the blog world!
ReplyDeleteI love the effect of the green ink with the simple black tree. I am going to be making christmas cards with some friends in a few weeks. You are welcome to join us if you still want to visit!
