Well Behaved… or… Not?

Well Behaved… or… Not?

Mostly I’m naughty… I think…. at least with sketches.  I like rules because they give me boundaries and usually I see things in black and white with very few grey areas…. however with crafting I break all the rules…usually…  but not today!  {Go ahead, pick your jaw up off the floor….} Today I followed the sketch and left everything in it’s right place. Brent did not scold me. Like he really ever does… Usually he just gives me a hard…

Skipping Stones Design Sketch Tuesday : SSD07

Skipping Stones Design Sketch Tuesday : SSD07

Good morning my Inky friends!  It’s that time of the week again to play with sketches.  I spend the weekend “sitting around and laying around” because I had the worst stomach ache in ages.  I did a TON of crafting. I mostly played around with jewelry and made some charms for a swap I’m in plus some extras and got brave and made a complete linked bracelet loaded with baubles and beads from scratch.  (Photos coming in future posts.) But…

Skipping Stones Design SSD05 – Earth Has No Sorrow

I’m sorry that I’m posting this a bit late.  I like to have my posts scheduled to go at least the day prior to when they’re due.  I’ve been sick with a nasty bug since last Wednesday.  I finally found my voice again and now my stomach is having issues.  ARGH. LOL!  What craziness, eh?  So I did find some time to play over the Christmas holiday and played with some more of my Skipping Stones Design stamps.  Heather sent…

I was working on a lot of projects this weekend.  I can share two of them with you after Thursday when the recipient gets them.

SSD Sketch SS01 – My Card, Better Late Than Never

SSD Sketch SS01 – My Card, Better Late Than Never

This is my take on the Skipping Stones Design Sketch SS01.  I had a lot of fun with this sketch.. it made me think a little and then it was screaming “CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS” at me so I couldn’t resist.  Afterall, it IS that time of year again. Here’s the Christmas Swirls stamp set: I wanted to do something a little out of my box and decided to try a somewhat monochromatic look with metallic shimmer cardstock.  I have such a…

Never Leave You Hanging…

Never Leave You Hanging…

Today I have spent hours sorting out photos on my computer so that I can get ready to back up my entire computer to my EHD and then do some serious digital scrapbooking. As I was sorting out photos I realized that I posted this sneak peak ages ago: But I never got around to sharing the full card. Well, the full card went to my girlfriend, Judy, for her birthday a week or so ago. Here’s the full card:…
