Just a quick note...

Yes, I am alive! Things have just been a little hairy around here is all...I did make a promise to myself to try and blog a little more regularly. It seems to be the only way I can remember what I've been doing sometimes, ba-ha-ha-ha!

So, I've been working on some cards recently. I'll have more about the card I'm working on for Aidan in the next few days...I've got some experimenting to do before I share pics with you!

Here's a little look at the card I did today.



It's a bright and cheery card. I've used my other coloring of Santa Birgitta, this time using the Red Violet copic color scheme (recipe to come later, sorry I don't have the numbers with me right now...). I also used a yellow copic to add some color to the button that was beige in a previous life, LOL!

I broke open my little DYMO handheld label maker and made the sentiment using white-core cardstock fed through as a strip, then sanded. I really liked how it looked, but it was getting smooshed as I worked on the inside, so I used the DYMO font by Manfred Klein and recreated it using the "reverse" method of generating white text.
