Baby Card

My third card for the Greeting Farm CHA relay challenge, featuring Toby. This one doesn't use a tissue box, but the patterned background, including the three gold-embossed decorations near the bottom, is recycled from a retail thank you card that someone sent me.

Card the Second

This was my card for day two of the Greeting Farm CHA relay challenge, featuring Wild Sprout Charlotte on another tissue box background.



In addition to learning how to make cards, I need to learn how to photograph them better (or get my scanner working!)

My First Card!

I've been viewing and commenting on inkstamping blogs and forums for about six months now, and gradually building up a small supply of rubber and digi stamps, as well as a very basic set of Copics. I was finally inspired to complete my first card for the Greeting Farm relay. I have a long way to go in terms of learning how to color with Copics and building up supplies (I have no Cuttlebugs or Nestabilities or anything!), but it's still fun even at this early stage.

I recycle a lot, and I've been saving tissue boxes for use in cards and art trading cards. The blue swirly design here is from a tissue box. I cut a few wavy pieces to make a wave effect.
