Sparkle and Shine!


What a great day! My A/C is out, but it is raining, so I am not totally dying. Plus, I love the rain! My dogs are not so happy. My newest card is an experiment in digi-hybrid card making, acetate and stamps.
The base is acetate folded using my Scor-Pal. On the inside back, I adhered a solid piece of sparkle silver paper slightly smaller than the acetate. My inside front is a digital clear frame with glitter accents, layered with digital fireworks. On the outside front, I attached Happy 4th stamped in chalk ink on a small squared with rounded corners and edged in chalk ink. Finally, I used clear firework stickers attached to acetate as layered embellishments. Ta da!
Photographing acetate is hard, so I am not sure this picture does it justice, but you get the picture. Pun intended, hee, hee.
Off to my stamp club meeting. I'll say it again, what a great day!

Back with Bang!


Surprise! I am still making cards, just not posting on my blog. In this case, no news is just plan no news. I am still looking for a full-time job, but nothing is working in my favor. One more interview tomorrow, so cross your fingers. I included a teaser of my My Sketch World card for this month. You probably figured out the theme, but, I have a few tricks up my sleeve. The MSW DT samples will post on the 12th so make sure you check the site for all the great creations! Have a super day!
