OY - it's only Tuesday and I am exhausted!!
Veronica started back at school yesterday - so I'm needing to get up a bit earlier to get everyone ready. She's happy to be back though so that's good. Josie's NOT happy - she asks every 20 minutes or so when can we go pick up V from school. I think it will be a good thing when I start working out of the house and she starts daycare - then she'll have other kids to play with.
Speaking of all that - I'm still working on my new salon. I am nearly done painting but have a bunch of other things to do - THAT is keeping my busy and a little frazzled. I'll be glad when it's all DONE!
ANYWHO - yeah things are a little crazy right now. I can't think straight!
The sneak peeks have started as we count down to the next All That Scraps stamp release - the first Monday of the Month (new stamps are always released on the first Monday of the month!) September 7th is when all the new sets will be available!
I had a card made up thinking it was for today - turns out I got the sets mixed up for their sneak peeks (surprise) and the one I made the card with isn't getting peeked until later in the week.
TODAY's sneak peek is for Diane's soon-to-be-released Ollie and Griselda set - and I whipped up a card for it this morning so here it is:
I think this set is SO cute!! I don't know why but I have a *thing* for Halloween images. It's so weird b/c it's not a big deal here - the kids go trick-or-treating and that's about it. I think it's the color combo - there's just something I LOVE about orange/black/green/purple!! LOL
So I stamped the shoe image from the set (and the sentiment of course!) onto white cardstock then colored them in with my Prismacolor Pencils and gamsol.
I HAD to bling up the shoes - I used my Lime Green Stickles for that - aren't they sparklay??
The spiderwebs on the purple cardstock were just hand drawn by me - those corners looked a little empty so I drew them in.
I made use of my Spellbinders Ovals and Labels 1 dies.
The ribbon is May Arts - now that I'm in "Halloween Mode" with cardmaking I'm thinking I should have ordered extra orange gingham!! *wink*
