Creativity in progress

I'm still working on it…

Card Patterns Sketch #13

Number of View: 1195

Okay, I’m about 50 minutes away from the CP Sketch #13 deadline. I wasn’t going to play the CP Sketch this week, because I didn’t care to win Close to my Heart products. I was disappointed with CTMH stamps b/c of this reason. But, boy… after looking through their new catalog, I decided to give them another try. Why can’t I say no to pretty looking stamps?!

So, here is the card I made using the CTMH stamp.

I made my own flower center thingy. What is it called? Stamen? Don’t know. Anywho, I cut some flower wires, and dabbed some liquid pearls on it. Some I put two layers, but I think one layer looks better.

Hmmm… Now I look at the photo, the pin/ribbon/jumbo eyelet look like a turkey. Please tell me turkey takes a part in ”Swan Lake”.

Another Unity Stamp anniversary FIRST challenge. F= Flower, I= Insect, R= Ribbon, S= Scallop; T= Turquoise or Teal.

When I first got all my 48 Stampin’ Up! ink pads, Taken with Teal was my least favorite. I thought this color should be banned, haha. It just didn’t look pretty enough. I actually gave it away, but later bought it again, heehee. Now that summer is fast approaching, I think this is very cool color. It’s growing on me (is this the right term?) Anyway, I wanted to create the card with houses in Carribean in mine. Yellow wall, red window.

When I create projects using someone else’s sketches, I do not like to alter the position. Someday I’ll be more creative, but for now I’d like to stick to the plan. =)

It didn’t work out… =(
Gina K. cardstock was way tooooooo think even with a wax paper on top.
