While I have been neglecting posting for the last month, I have decided that, rather than depend upon rubber stamps to create all the images for the cards I make sometimes, I am going to try my hand at drawing everything myself.
These are shots of two of my most recent endeavors.
For Michelle's birthday I gave her the Dolly Parton of her dreams.
I lined the envelope and made pieces of confetti. All the while going for a glittery, seventies, Grand Ole Opry theme to match the pretty outfit Dolly was wearing in the inspiration photo.
Next up, we have a thank you card that I made for my dear friend McCall. For my birthday she sent me a whole bunch of goodies. Among them was a set of collector postage stamps representing the Pioneers of Industrial Design. As she told me that the pencil sharpener was her favorite, I drew it for her.
This week in small things made of paper time....My birthday was earlier this month and I got lots of presents in the mail from lots of people. Just take a look at this dream come true.
Notes, cards, stickers, postage stamps, vintage hankies, streamers (from party poppers that my roommate used to scare me in the early morning on my special day)...its all there. Thank you to everyone for all of the great birthday wishes!
Speaking of birthdays, I am busy planning something truly special for my friend LaToya for her birthday at the end of this month. I think everyone will very pleased. Stay tuned!
