It's the Worst Day to Eat Out...but Who Cares?This year George took me to the Log Jam in Lake George. The food was OK, but I got a free geranium! Free is good!
(I have to apologize for the dates on my pictures. I will figure out how to get rid of them...it can't be that hard!)
This card is for a couple of challenges at SCS...CSSC20: Crafty Secrets Calendar Challenge, and SC180, the Wednesday Layout Challenge.
I used Crafty Kitchen Classics set and the Remember is from SeeD's Aged and Elegant set. I used my empressor tool to make faux wainscoating...love doing that.
Another thing I love doing is creating cardstock that looks sort of like vintage fabric designs.
I use small stamp images and lots of chalk. My chalk eraser is used to make clean areas around images, which is something one would see in vintage fabrics. I have not mastered this technique, but it's fun learning.
I added some waxed flax and tiny beads that I picked up at Walmart,
because the card needed something. I am pretty happy with it.
On to the next challenge!
