I am in the midst of switching jobs, so for the last few weeks I have been working 2 part time jobs, as well as a weekly farmer's market in Moorestown, NJ. I wake up and have to figure out where I need to be that day! Fortunately, I will be down to one job soon and the market. Then I can focus on my Etsy shop which has been depleted with lots of sales at the farmer's market. I've got so much to make! I wanted to share a card I made this past Friday. I worked 10am - 10pm, and I'm still trying to recuperate! I purchased a Personal Cricut Machine last year on sale with my employee discount. My favorite cartridge is Create a Critter. I love owls and just thought a blue owl would be a perfect color to coordinate with my background paper. I found a company named The Pink Stamper which has stamps made specifically to go with the Critter images. The stamps are great quality polymer stamps and I love the adorable sayings.
A few rhinestones and glitter add a wonderful look too. I use my odds and ends of embellishments to add extra pizazz. Ever wonder what to do with left over alphabet stickers? I mixed and matched 2 different sets for the hogs and kisses card. I hate to waste anything!
I hope to post at least once a week, now that my crazy schedule is getting a little bit better. I'd like to get out some of the supplies I've purchased and never used. Another idea I have is to show one stamp used in different cards or layouts. The Scottish have a saying about "make do" - use what you have. What supplies and materials do you have that can be used in a new and fresh way?
