Just trying to get some new cards made in categories that I didn’t think of before.
I’ve also got some ideas in mind for Mother’s and Father’s days.
I should likely think about wedding, baby and graduation while I’m at it.
But as I have learned…you can’t push it…just have to let it happen.
I was feeling the need to just paint. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to DO so I grabbed some paper and just DID.
It was really fun and free. As in free like a bird, of course.
So I ended up with a 9×12 sheet of watercolor paper covered with random painting..mostly geometric in style.
I decided to cut it up a bit for card backgrounds.
Sort of like serendipity pages.
I made these three cards and have some painted page left over for who knows what.
I did a few more background sheets that haven’t fired up my inspiration yet. I figure the more I push it…the less inspired I get.
In the mean time I’m getting more cards made. I found out today that I’ll be able to do another craft show in April. Nothing like a deadline to get me working!!
I made a few more cards from some scraps and photos laying around my workspace. I just love using those scraps! It’s like a challenge to me.
I can’t remember what these flowers were…something is making me think they are an herb that flowered. Hmmm.
The green scrap is from a very pretty card I saved from the recycle bin. It matched the pink and green of a thank you card perfectly.
Isn’t it great when things like that just work out.
A tag with a little bit of ribbon looks much better when mounted on little foam squares. It gives nice dimension.
And then there’s one of my favorite pictures…
My girl sharing the heart shaped inside of a black walnut shell. Pesky squirrels left me a present in the garden but it made for a fantastic photo op.
She’s even wearing her LOVE shirt. <3
