I made three cards last week. This for me is amazingly productive! You see, I always thought that I had to block out a couple of hours at a time for crafting and nowadays - elderly dogs, elderly DH, elderly crafter - this never seems to happen. However, a couple of weeks ago, Covid caught up with us and while the blocks of time were there, fatigue made it impossible to craft for longer than a few minutes! I learned to leave the mess on my desk and create in short bursts. Well, duh! Here are the cards I made to replenish my stash: -
Stamps - Hero Arts
Inks - Uncharted Mariner, Salty Ocean, Wilted Violet
Bling - Sunny Studio
Stencil - Vicki Boudin
This card is easy and so versatile. I write inside "Hope your (vacation/birthday/visit/day etc) is fintastic! "
Stamps - Hero Arts
Inks - Mowed Lawn, Peeled Paint, Ground Espresso, Rusty Hinge, Wilted Violet
Stencil - Hero Arts
I did not like the stenciled background as it was just so overwhelming so I cut it up into smaller squares and now I think the card is too busy! In the stash it goes!
I did enjoy stenciling these balloons despite the many, pieces of masking tape I had to use to keep the card panel free from stray bits of ink!
Stamp - Hero Arts
Inks - Candied Apple, Saltwater Taffy, Scattered Straw, Spiced Marmalade.
Stencil - Paper Rose
Bling - Sunny Studio
Well, let's see if the micro burst crafting streak continues! Have a great week : ) Christine
