I know... YUCK! I am struggling you guys! Majorly struggling. I sat down today with my bottle of gesso that I hadn't used and tried to do something with it. It didn't go so well as you can see. I probably shouldn't even post this, but I think we need to share our good and bad. I can already see a million things I could do differently, so maybe when my heart is back into stamping I can try again.
With the leftover piece and some scraps from around my room, I did put together this 4.25 inch square cards and I like it a bit better. It's super simple and kinda cute I guess. I just wish I'd stamped the sentiment AFTER I put it together as it looks crooked and is driving me nuts now.
I hope you are having a better crafty weekend!
Another picture from Laila's mall photo shoot. I'm pretty sure she was crawling away yet again when they snapped it. lol
love the little square card but I didn't mind the other card, maybe you're trying too hard!
ReplyDeleteI think both cards are lovely! I'm giving you extra points for stamping the sentiment on the square card so it aligns perfectly with the background text. It all works for me, so apparently I think your crafty mojo is doing fine.
ReplyDeleteI have to say that I really like these!! I know...you don't but I'm so glad you shared!! I will be using them for inspiration!
ReplyDeleteRita you have never made a card I did not like yet. We all have days where we are not as pleased with what we design but everyone else loves it. I think we try too hard sometimes to think outside the box and make it a lot harder than it has to be. Keep up the posts they are all amazing.
ReplyDeleteI think the cards are great! But I have no idea what gesso is.........
ReplyDeleteYour cards are lovely and your baby adorable. Be kind to yourself and know that lots of people care for you.
