Want to know why? Because I was asked to be a part of the Stampin' Royalty Goddesses over at the Stampin' Royalty Blog, that's why! I'm excited to have yet another reason to stamp on a regular basis. I've made a bit of a resolution to myself that I'm gonig to stop procrastinating my stamping responsibilities...snort. I keep telling myself that I work well under pressure but, in reality, it stresses me out and that's not what stamping is supposed to be for me. It's supposed to be my retreat. My zen.
So, thank you to all of the wicked awesome ladies at the Stampin' Royalty blog for helping me find my zen. LOL! If you haven't already visited the blog or had the pleasure of the paper eye candy these chicks pump out on a consistent basis, head over and say hi to Sandra Farrell, Angela McKay, Georgie Manning (my sister from another mother), Jenn Pickard (a.k.a. Pick-erd), Stasia Sloma, and Carrie Rhoades...but not before you check out what I made for my very first SR challenge!
Here's the sketch:
And here's my card:
stamps: greeting card kids, woodgrain BG, teeny tiny wishes
ink: basic black, tangerine tango, chocolate chip
paper: ttango cs, cchip cs, just add cake dsp, water color paper
accessries: lots of markers ; ), blender pens, brights designer buttons, linen thread, scalloped dotted choc. chip ribbon, corner rounder punch, dimentsionals, black journal marker
I absolutely adore this set and I really don't use it as much as I should. I'm not a big giver of Halloween cards...heck, I'm not a big giver of ANY cards, to tell you the truth. It's kind of nuts that I make and make and make and make all of these cards but give so few. I have a lot of friends that buy my cards from me to give away to friends and family...uhhh...is that what we're *supposed* to do with them?! Huh. Go figure.
Ske-doosh.
