I’ve been MIA lately with traveling and trying to get a handle on some personal things. Now when I’m back home I feel like I’m chasing my tail trying to catch up on everything what seems to be a never ending “to do” list! :)
Anyway, first thing first.
The winner of the Paper Crafts May/June 2011 issue! Per random.org the winner is:
comment no. 07 - cards by cara.
Congrats! Please email me your info (just click on the ‘email me’ button in my sidebar), and I will get this issue (and some goodies) out to you!
My today’s card is inspired by this month's challenge at Hero Arts blog: Colored Pencil Techniques. I stamped pears from Engraved Fruits set by Hero Arts with yellow ink (using a masking technique) and then colored it with regular pencils. I wish I could draw like that! ;)
The background stamp is from Tattered Textures set by Tattered Angels & Heidi Swapp.
Thank you for taking the time to stop by today and I hope you have a great week!
