inky and loving it…

So, someone asked me something pretty funny today.  They wanted to know if I create something EVERYDAY or just every now and then.  I started to say just every now and then, when the mood strikes.  The more I think about it though, I actually DO create something everyday – if you include cooking, or digital stuff.  I do “something” creative every single day!  Wow! 

Here’s a little card I whipped up last night…  Didn’t it turn out cute?!

Supplies: Craft cardstock, Patterned Papers: Merrymint, Cream cardstock, distress embossing ink, embossing powder,ribbon, adhesive, rubberstamps, assorted inks, Smooch, Spica pens, Stickles, and a super sharp craft knife.

the stamps I used were just some little Wal-Mart brand stamps I bought last year.

this card is 5.25 x 4.5

I wanted it to look really layered, so I trimmed my main patterned paper down about an inch.   This way when I embossed the craft card base, you would see the embossing…

then I cut off a piece of this patterned paper from the Merrymint collection  by American Crafts.

slapped ‘er all together with some dimensional foams, and Stickled Santa’s coat with tons of Stickles.  I don’t know why, I just like using Stickles.  I like saying Stickles.  I like saying I used Stickles. Stickles.  Say it, its funny.  It makes me giggle.  Stickles.
LOL
