More Time in the Craft Room



Church was wonderful this morning. A great sermon on the 12-year old Jesus. Sun shining through the stained glass windows and a church full of "family". Every time I walk through the doors, it feels like I've come home. Do you suppose that's what heaven feels like, only better?!

So when I got home, I did the few Sunday chores I had to do, then hit the craft room. Whipped up another card for the Retrosketches #44 challenge. If you haven't played along, do check it out.


I've got some grandsons birthdays coming up in January, and figured I had better get on those cards. Keegan turns 3, and I thought the cute little alien was a good choice for him. The colors look really bright in this photo, but IRL, they look really cute.


Bazzill white and turquoise cardstock. A random scrap of orange polka dot patterned paper, striped washi tape, Paper Smooches Little Fella stamps, Stazon black ink, and orange Copic marker. Then just a random clear orange button with some raffia that I split and curled. Happy Dances!

This is way too cute! Love that little guy! We have a few in January too and a new one due any day. Wow you sure have won lots of the CASology challenges … Nice!

Bev, this card is 'right out of this world' sweet. The young alien (that oddly resembels Bart Simpson) is going to delight your little grandson!

Love the striking contrast between the brilliant orange and the blue. Nice touch with the strip of Washi tape (...gonna have to get me some of that stuff!)
