...cherry pie...

hey everyone! I managed to get a non DT card done today!! I wanted to play in the MFT sketch so i pulled out a card kit i had.

I coloured the girl with copics and used a spic glitter pen on her ruffles and head band. I then cut her out with a nestie.

The papers are PTI white, kraft, poppy parade by SU and the dsp was in the kit.

I used a SU border punch and the ribbon and utensils came from the kit. The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes by SU.

Today is a very special day...today is one of my best friends birthdays:) Of course i had to make him a Slayer card (this is the 3rd one i have made him, i am running out of ideas!! like another band would you???? lol) because he asked me too!! lol

So i printed out the Slayer logo and mounted it on a nestie. My papers are PTI white, basic black and the dsp is from SU Rockabilly.

...whats on my desk saturday....

So...now that the show is over i can get back to crafting!! I started making a card and got called away to go for coffee with a friend who is in town. So i took a pic of my whole desk as some people were asking about the shelves.

My ex-bf made me the shelves...they are all sized to the different SU set sizes. I don't have many SU sets anymore but they are still good to store stuff in.

The ink pad holder came from a second hand store, it looks like it could have been a cassette tape holder at some point. This is the only space i have to craft, i don't have a room like most of the crafting world so i have to be somewhat organized to fit things. The glitter holder is an old scissor holder, i got rid of the funky scissors and the bottles of stickles/glitter fit perfect upside down in there.

I guess that is it...better get some cards done....Oh and head on over to the Stamping Ground and enter your desk!!!

hugs

...mandatory suicide....

So last night i played my first show in 6 years...my friend asked me to play in his Slayer cover band, how could i turn that down?? The show was great and i guess i haven't lost my touch on stage! :) Here are some pics from the night...

Me in action!!
