Trying New Things…

DSC02947

Hello everyone!

My “shabby chic” card was chosen as one of the two winning cards at Wee Memories! WOOT WOOT--- FNALLY! LOL.

I like this card! It’s cute and not as gigantor like my cards usually are, its 5.5 x 4.25 inches. I don’t have brown CS so I dyed Kraft in to brown. The heart is hand drawn and coloured with pip squeaks (I LOVE MY CRAYOLA’s) and distressed with ColourBox velvet pigment ink. The heart’s quite shimmery, not visible in photos I know. I painted it with white pearl paint, the sparkle of pearl paint kinda matches with the sheen of the satin ribbon.

Okay so RAK for my followers and those who comment regularly or even as often as they can… If you want this card, just say so in your comment. If there are more than two people who want this, I will draw or use random.org. But I highly doubt that I will need to use random.org, the card’s cute but not that cute! LOL

This card is based on the sketch at CPS. Hope you guys like it! I do!

big hugs!

Hi, E. T! Thanks so much for visiting my blog today and leaving such sweet comments on some of my projects. I wanted to find your blog earlier but I became side-tracked and am just now getting around to it. I love your technique with the washable markers and the results are fantastic. How clever! I would not have known they were washable without reading your explanation. Your newest card is just beautiful! I was so excited when I read that you use a Silhouette. It seems that most people in the US use the Cricut. I have both machines and each has their good and bad points, I guess. I also noticed that you're a Taurus... me too! I am following your blog now so I can keep up with your awesome work. Take care!

I love this card E.T! I am sorry I missed it when you posted it! I would have loved it, but there are so many that feel the same way! Don't cut yourself short on your cards, you do an amazing job, anyone would want any of your cards! I love how you dyed the paper and that die cut is gorgeous! Is that from the silhouette machine? Congrats too!
