WSC 90 (almost!)



Hello, hello! Checking in with my try at WSC 90. This is one penguin who is very secure with his inner penguin! I wanted to dust of this guy this weekend to make a birthday card for young girl. So I figured that a healthy dose of pink, with some green would do the trick. (That's my story and I'm sticking to it - LOL!) And of course you can't forget the purple pail.
I used the sketch as a guide and pretty much only deviated in that I used a circle for the main image instead of the oval. The penguin wouldn't fit in an oval, so that made that easy. ;)
On a side note, I can't believe it is only Monday... Well, it just means there is that much more week to enjoy LOL (again, that's my story, and I'm sticking to it. Trying to enjoy the moment - no matter what kind of a moment it is). Have a good one!

Oldie but Goodie and a WSC! :)




It's been a little while since I have been able to participate in a WSC - but I am going to get back into the swing of them. I used the sketch to make one of birthday cards that we needed this weekend. It was a busy Saturday... 3 games, 3 birthday parties and a bbq meant that again my husband and I split up to get it all done. :)
I used an oldie, but goodie for the main image of this card. While I love all the various new releases to be found each month (and of course always like to get my fill of them - LOL), I like reach back and use the images that I "had" to have at some point in the past. There was a reason I wanted them in the first place, right?? ;) Granted, I don't do it for all my older stamps regularly (although I should either do so or donate them so they get some use somewhere else), as my stamping style and taste have evolved, but there are some tried and trues. This IA image is definitely one of them. I think she is perfect for a card that is going to a little girl. This card for for a 2-year old. :)
Hope that you had a wonderful weekend. I'm bracing myself for a very busy workweek filled with LOTS of work and a {LONG} "day" trip to LA and back (ugh... red eye...) on Thursday. Wish me luck.
Have a good one!
