Don't you just love rainy days? A great time to craft and not feel like you should be doing something else. We've had so much rain this year, I'm honestly looking for a reason not to craft. Living in California, June is usually warm and dry. This year....wet and cold. I know, in a few weeks we'll be complaining about how hot it is. But for today....it's craft day. Last week I saw a card made by Becca. I have the Martha Stewart punch, so I thought, it'd be fun to try out the technique. While talking to Brenda, we talked about what we'd do when we had our next play day. Becca's project won. I thought I'd give it a run through before the play day. The above is what I created. Check out Becca's blog page to see her beautiful card. If you have this punch....try making a card. It really wasn't all that difficult.....Most of her cards are way above my ability....but this one....was fun. Since I am directionally challenged...I cut one side, I then laid the second piece at a 90 degree angle so I'd know which direction I needed to make the next cut.
I'm off to clean up my mess. Have a great week. I hope the sun is shining where you are.
My goodness...how gorgeous is this?!!! I'd say you've done Becca proud for sure. I have that punch...hmmmm, maybe I'll get it out after vacation.
ReplyDeleteSo happy your PIF arrived and that you found some fun things in it to play with.
