seeing good...

it's time to play catch up on my blog!!  about a  month ago, my cute friend sherri's husband had to have unexpected eye surgery.  so i made him this card.  i love the glasses and i just adjusted the saying to fit the card!!

there's a new craze going on right now.  [washi tape]  it's a thin paper tape that comes in a variety of colors and patterns and is great for paper crafts like card making and scrapbooking.  it can be used on virtually any crafting project.  and now you can make your own washi tape pretty easily!  so i tried it out and made some for this card.  i stamped the snowflakes in chalk ink and then stamped the sentiment right on the washi tape after i put it on my card.  totally fun to use!

happy wishes
stamps: unity, ippity
cardstock: soft sky

thinking of you...

i needed a thinking of you card and  wanted to make a simple one.  this one was both!!  took not long to make and used my new stamps in the process!  used the direct to paper technique with the ink.  love that.  a friend had surgery so i wanted to send a card.  of course i wanted the cards to continue so that's why i'm sending it a week later!  *wink*

feel better...

let me tell you a little tale...a few months ago, i went on a little stamp binge. i'm not ashamed...i'm addicted. thanks, unity, for helping me out with this (although my bank account would not agree!). i bought the cutest set (see here) that i had grand plans of making many cards with. over the past few weeks, i've had a bunch of friends who have been hit with the flu or some horrible cold...all of whom would have loved getting a little get well card to boost their spirits. but i'm a slacker card sender. so they will have to accept this e-card from me!!
