At the end of last week I totally cleared off my craft/dining room table and told myself that I would do no crafting until after I was finished preparing income taxes.
The taxes are now complete.
My crafty stuff is back on the table.
And here is my card for the new Double Trouble Challenge #59.
rd
Following the recipe challenge,
1. I used an old sentiment stamp from CTMH. It is from one of the first sets I bought when I started stamping over a dozen years ago. The bird is also an older CTMH stamp from one of my favorite sets. I colored him with pencils.
2. There are two each of two types of embellishments. Thought I'd cover my bases.
3. Blue, green and purple were the three colors I chose.
I'm sure there are enough angles on this card to please
Twisted Sister.
And I've followed the Retro Rubber Challenge #137 Sketch, too.
Additional challenges I am entering:
The Crafter's Cafe Challenge - Things with Wings
Ellibelle's Corner Crafty Wednesday Challenge - In the Summer Garden
