Making a quick stop at home
Last night I decided I really needed a crafting "fix" and sat down and removed all the chip board pieces, from the large package I had picked up at Big Lots some months ago. I had an embossed white paper floating in my stash drawer and some snowflake tissue paper I've dieing to tear into, so I decoupaged the tissue to the embossed CS and let it dry. Then the phone rang.................................. So it was this morning before I went back to the beginnings. I fell in love with this reindeer and covered him with Gesso, then painted him silver.
I played around with the placement then decided to emboss him with silver, then took a silver paint pen and went over the antlers to make them shinny, and added him to the card. The Inkadikado Merry Christmas embossed with the same silver finished off the card.
Gee this is my 3rd Christmas card........I'M ON A ROLL.............LOL. Over on Betsy are two more cards in different stages. I had to let some paint dry. I really like this card and it turned out so pretty by the scanner and camera just didn't catch it, even took it out side and snapped pics there. Oh well, such is life.
The Desert trip was great, almost hot days with a small breeze. We smoked a turkey, had ham and all the fix'ns for Thanksgiving.
A quick stop at home is all I get this week. Tomorrow it's time to go to San Diego, it's Danica's 2nd birthday party. Waiting for DH to say it is for the weekend or we're taking the trailer for a week. The guys have made plans and we gals made different plans last night. well, not different just updated ours LOL
Before signing off for this blog I might remind all in Blogland: DO NOT STEP ON YOUR CELL PHONE BEFORE LEAVING FOR VACATION!! LOL
I did get a new one Sunday afternoon, so I'm back in the talking/texting business
