It's been a while....

Well it has been a while since I have put up a post. I haven't been stamping very much lately. I've been pretty mellow this past week. I needed to do some stamping this weekend though, as I have a card class coming up on the 25th of this month and I have to get the cards designed.



(Well, I'm not really doing much designing...so far....I am doing more casing, so I am very thankful for all the wonderful stampers that share are their great creations!)



Here is one of the cards my class will be making on the 25th. The base of the card is Bordering Blue Stampin' Up! card stock. More Mustard layered on Chocolate Chip is the next small layer. Then Bordering Blue layered on Chocolate Chip. The snowman, presents and penguin are stamped on watercolour paper and coloured with the watercolour crayons and the blender pen. This card was cased from one made by Mercy Kerin.



They were then cut out and stuck to the Whisper White card stock with dimensionals which has been stamped with snowflakes in Bordering blue. Some hemp twine was added for an embellishment. The sentiment was stamped on Chocolate Chip, as well as on Bordering Blue and on More Mustard. It was then punched and layered with dimensionals.



I hope they will like to make this one.



This picture shows a close up of the images that are layered.



You know how when you are watching a movie and there is a statement that is made and you just laugh out loud and say to yourself, "I have to remember that one".
I am watching the movie Armageddon with Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler - and a bunch of others as well..
For those of you who have not seen the movie it is about a large meteor that is about to crash into the earth and Bruce Willis is gonna drill into it to blow it up so it does not kill everything on the earth.
There is an older fella who has a large telescope and he saw a bunch of meteors burning through his telescope...while he is looking at the sky through his telescope his wife comes out and starts nattering at him, they have a screaming match and then she ends up slamming the door and walking away. Later, the fella is calling and talking to someone at NASA telling them about what he saw through his telescope. He makes a comment to the fella from NASA saying "the person who finds it gets to name it right? The fella says yeah sure. .so he says
"I wanna name her Dottie, after my wife......(the camera zooms to the wife who is now smiling because he wants to name something after her......) and then he adds....."She's a vicious life-sucking bitch from which there is no escape"
Now THAT....is funny!

Chow for now,
