Hello and TGIF!
Hope you're ready for a weekend. I sure am! It's been an interesting week. Had to have a shot in both my knees so been a little less ambulatory the past couple days to let them take affect. Actually have been off my legs the whole week waiting to get the shots. Thankfully today they feel great again and hope it stays that way now.
I guess one plus is that I have been able to get in my craft room and create a little more. This is one of my finished products for some special people. Yes, my Valentines will be late but hey what can you do. Do we really need a specific day to tell others how much we love them and appreciate them in our lives? NAH!
I recently bought the puzzle cover plate die from Hero Arts and have been playing with it this week. I have puzzle lovers in my fam and I not only created this card for some of them but I also actually created a puzzle for them to put together as well. There may be a photo below.
I started though with the Layered Heart stencil by Waffle Flower. After stenciling in Cotton Candy and Rockin' Red (CP Designs) I went over the entire thing with a light layer of Cotton Candy. Then I cut it with the puzzle coverplate. Next I cut out that adorable Peeking Chicken die by Hero Arts and pieced it together. The sentiment is from Lil' Inker Designs.
I did this one specifically for the Color Hues challenge and at least I'm not totally squeaking in last minute.
Other Challenges:
The puzzle I created with the In The Forest layered stencil by Catherine Pooler and using her inks. Then I cut it with the Hero Arts puzzle die. I actually doubled up my cardstock before I cut it, which was not such a great idea. It took quite a few rounds through my die cut machine and then using some scissor and exacto knife to get the bottom layer all cut.
Thank you for visiting my blog and hope you come back soon!
