This has been a long week. Jeff finally got a job. He will now be working at Thompson Pools doing indoor sales. He is very excited to be working again. It has been 7 months since he was laid off. He has to work on Saturdays 9:00 a.m until 4:00 p.m. I don't like that part, as that will only leave us with 1 day a week together. Oh well, that is the sacrifice that we have to make for now.
Well, as promised, I have a new post for you . . .
This little girl is a Bild stamp - "Sitting - Mimosa". I colored her with Copic pens. My task was to show a front light source I know that I still have a lot to learn. I think that she is really sweet and she was fun to color. I really liked how the paper and ribbons match so well and tie in really well with the pinks of her clothes. I think it is a bright and fun card. Here is the inside. . .
I used the same paper and a spellbinder template for the insert so that a nice sentiment can be written later. I thought the stamp went with it really well, also. This is one of my favorite cards so far. I need to get better at taking pictures. This just doesn't do the true colors justice as they are a little washed out from the real thing. I have a light box that I am experimenting with. I think that I need to get one more free standing lamp to help with the natural lighting. What I really need is Practice, Practice, Practice!! I think I might also get help from a professional photographer whom I happen to be related to through marriage. Hey, if you can't bother family then what good are they. :)
Well this is all that I have for now. I'm not sure when I will be back. It is really how the mood hits me. I am getting the "sewing" bug and will most likely start a new quilt. So, until next time - bye bye
