The musings and offerings of a burgeoning greetings master

Wop Wop....

This week has been too crazy.  Two birthdays, some very bad news for the family members, a new furnace in about 20 minutes, and I'll be going out of town all next week, with no computer.  I will be back with some cards and more Friday Fix ASAP, I promise.

I sense your disappointment....

Ok, here's a quick one.  But only because it's YOU--

I would probably never normally post this, because it is not perfect, and never will be, bit I love the shapes and colors, so...
 
I stamped this with various colors, then stamped a few onto scraps, and trimmed them out. A little foam adhesive, and there it is.  Oh yeah, and a little dashed line there on the top and bottom. 
I have to use a ruler to do that.  I can't draw a straight line to save my life.  Even the ruler does only so much. The dashes are all over the place....
 
The stamps are from Pretty Patterns by my friend Melanie Muenchinger for GinaK Designs, and the sentiment is from the dollar bin, so I'm thinking it's Studio G.  The pink/orange inks are Memento, and the black is Versafine.
 
Have a great weekend/week ahead!
 
Thanks so much for stopping by!
All Best-
Richard

  1. Incredible what it adds to the overall appeal of the card with the raised sections. That is a very Moxie Fab design Richard and the colors are absolutely inviting. I'm glad you posted this. It's very refreshing!

  4. Love the trendy vibe of this card! Awesome color combo and the dotted line details are just lovely! The best thing about handmade cards is that they are never perfect. To me, it is priceless! Hope things are looking up for you soon!
