Hello,
I am so excited! I have been invited to bring my hand-made
cards to a local children’s clothing consignment shop. This is such an honor
and a blessing. I was so surprised and so excited when the owner asked. This
was certainly not on my radar. I guess this just goes to show, God works things
in his own way and in his own time and opens doors we never noticed on our own.
Being a children’s clothing consignment, I decided I had
better get making more child themed and baby themed cards to offer with my
selection, so here is an example:
I created this one to go along with this weeks card sketch
challenge taking place on my Facebook page.
Please stop by and join us. There are so many wonderful ideas being
shared by such friendly and lovely women, who support one another and encourage
each other, that I’m sure you will find inspiration for your own creativity.
You can find us at www.facebook.com/snsfromtheheart.
In addition to all of this, I have been learning to use my
new Cricut Explore Air. I completed the little card project they have you do as
a first project so that you learn to use the pen that comes with the machine as
well as cut. Simple enough. So I decided I wanted to create some word art for
my craft room walls, I got some vinyl to cut and it was a disaster! I cut the
pattern out twice and both times I ended up with a waded up ball of vinyl!
Cutting it with the Cricut is the easy part..trying to remove the negative
space is a nightmare! I had vinyl sticking to everything until it literally
became a wad of vinyl! So, if any of you reading this has ANY idea on how to
not have the vinyl stick to itself as you are lifting and peeling back, I would
be eternally grateful. I will try anything…I really want to decorate my walls
with the vinyl! So, please, if you know that answer to this, leave me the
answer in the comments section below. As I said, I will be eternally grateful
to you!
In the meantime, happy stamping,
Katrina
