This morning I went back to crafty clean-up but took an hour break to use a new Poppystamps die before I put it away in its new home. This item had a manufacturing delay, hence the long wait for my order. I also received a new Blueprints set from My Favorite Things and thought it would pair nicely. Finally, a random stamped fairy showed up during my cleaning frenzy so I decided to color her and incorporate her into my card.
Supplies: Paper - Anchor Paper bargain bin marbled, Michael's blue,

Who would know that the star paper was from a Christmas pad?! I thought it was perfect for a rock star!! I had to look up the collection at BoBunny because, guess what, I've lost track of that 6x6 paper pad! Who knows where I set it, sigh.... Well, it's back to crafty clean-up (at least I'll try not to get distracted again!). Hope you're having a wonderful weekend and thanks for stopping!!
fun cards Linda - glad the big cleanup is working well for you. rec'd my stencil today - thanks so much - now to use it!!
ReplyDeleteLove both these cards. I know exactly how you feel about cleaning up. I often get distracted by finding things on my desk I'd forgotten about!
ReplyDeleteBoth of these cards are fantastic! Great job finding the stamp set. I lost a die from one of my MFT Blueprints sets this past week and went nuts finding it (which I did, in the paper recycling!).
ReplyDeleteSuper cards Linda. That blue is fabulous and how fun that you found a great image for Heather's hubby.
ReplyDeleteTook me 8 months to fine a die I had lost...it slipped under all the dies I keep in a CD bin in CD sleeves.
Hurrah for finding the missing stamp! Gotta say--at least you're doing the clean up while I continue to put it off feeling so overwhelmed each time I start! 2 fun cards--the star paper is indeed perfect for a rocker!
