I was chosen with 24 other people to enter the DCWV contest in collaboration with May Arts Ribbons. I received tons of paper and ribbon, and I made an album. I had 2 boards that had ink resistant designs on them, and I used ink on them. I rubbed the extra ink off with a paper towel. I used cardboard for my pages, and I will spray the entire album with a preservative spray. I loved the die-cuts that were part of the paper pack, and I cut some of my images out from the paper to use as die-cuts. Here is the finished album.
Hope you enjoyed that! I didn't win, but I had a lot of fun. I learned that I need to step my game up to win. I just learned how to make my own embossing folders, using my cricut and my die-cuts, and I plan to share this with you.
I am currently working on the knitting Loom making a scarf for the first time on the long loom. I want to do this to see how I can figure out how to make an afghan. I want to start building up my stash, so that I can enter one of the shows next season. Suggestions are welcome, since I have never done so before. I think I may do some papercrafting as well. I'm really interested in pergammano (don't think it's spelled right), and I'd really like to add it to my card making skills. DH and I are both really sick right now, and haven't been doing anything. I can't wait to feel better so that I can go to the beach and make a sand castle. I would love to have a cook-out. I plan to get the gas tank filled for our grill for the 4th of July for a picnic. I would love to take the boat out too, but unfortunately not until after the 4th. Our boat is bigger and faster and a whole lot funner than the the one pictured here. I'm sure you'll see pics later.
DCWV is having a Design Team call. I entered, and they will announce it in July. I hope you enter. Competition is fierce, so I don't really expect to win, but it's good experience to apply.
Let me know what you have on your hooks!
Happy Scrappin & Hookin,
