I told you I love Halloween and here is another card (and envelope) to prove it. I wish you could see how much this card glitters and shines…it’s magical.
Halloween!!! I love Halloween. This year I’m going to try to send out a few cards. I love to make Halloween cards so why not send some out. I used Inkadinkadoo’s “Test Tubes,” Memento Tuxedo Black ink, VersaMark, Tombow markers, Rose Art color pencils, Gelly Roll pens, Stickles’ “Starry Night,” Tim Holtz “Distress Inks” and Alterations‘ ”Bricked,” Hero Arts’ “Sparkle Clear Happy Halloween” stamp and “Clouds” stamp & cut, and Zing! “white.”
A wonderful friend had a birthday and I couldn’t let it go by without a sparkly card for her. I hope her day was as fantastic as she deserved. I used Basic Grey’s “Indian Summer” paper pad, Lawn Fawn’s “Summertime Charm,” Hero Arts’ “Live it Up,” and Simon Says Stamp’s “Happy Every Day”
After 16 years, Tam and I went to our first concert together. FUN with Tegan and Sara. We celebrated some birthdays, got some Green Lantern shoes and some sidekicks, and just had a “fun” week.
This week was horses for me and the last Burn Notice for Tam. Nafia and I finished our Level 2 Obedience class. And that was pretty much it for our week. I used Studio 112, Unity’s Easier With You by My Side, and Memento Tuxedo Black and Londen Fog ink.
I hate talking about myself, so just let me say I’m a writer, a scrapbooker, a painter (cars, rooms, furniture…not pictures), a wood worker, a photographer, a gardener (flowers, not too much on the veggies), an obsessive reader, a baker, and even once a candle maker. If I can take something and change it into something else, even if it just looks different, then I’m happy. I used to teach classes at the LSS. On a quick personal note I have a better half (that really is). I also have the most amazing son. He's so talented and kindhearted. I pretend he gets it from me.8^) On a final note, I recently saw a button that says “Never make excuses for your art.” I’m not sure who said it but I think it’s my creative motto.
