Paper-Paisleys Art Adventures

~~card made for the Hubs, using an old Card Patterns sketch, K&Co. Tapestry papers, Skipping Stones stamps, Technique Tuesday canvas scallops, Sakura gelpens and a handmade jeweled and Stickled bottlecap embellie (I'd have used a wine cork if I hadn't just thought about it, don't ya just hate when that happens?)~~

We've had a good last few days. Hubs' work contract negotiations got resolved right at the strike deadline, dang. That's been a well-worn worry in the back row of our minds, so glad the show is over.

~~atc made for the monthly Winner Take All lottery in a yahoo group~~

I get to keep this one until month's end. I have it sitting on a tiny easel at my desk and am enjoying it.

~~anniversary card made using DCWV papers, Cornish Heritage Farms, Flourishes and Sassafras Las stamps, a sketch from Stamper's Corner and the Paper Piecing with Stamps Technique from my Technique Junkies newsletter~~

I have to admit that I was not expecting to like this card as much as I do, because I wasn't feeling the color combination. Seeing the pop that the black accenting gives it warmed me up to it, though. Those SassLas owls crack me up every time.
