FortyFour-Home Sweet Home






Oh boy, here goes... So I lost my good corner rounder which explains the gnawed edges on the vellum and the maroonish piece. Also, I need to figure out what is the best way to stick vellum to another piece of paper without leaving all that glue behind, unless it looks different when it's had longer to dry, I don't know. Anyway, some cool new things: my friend Ellen gave me a boatload of stuff she wasn't really using including the cute house and heart punch. Though I think it must have been well-loved by her at one time because it only goes through the thinnest of paper like the vellum I used it on. Also, she gave me a super cool corner punch which is what I used on the light brown piece. Speaking of the light brown piece, it is card stock that comes in packs with adhesive backing already on it! Perfect for my lazy ass!

TwentyFive-Linear


What more can I say that I didn't say yesterday? I've been missing my friend since the beginning of the new year and I'll be missing her more without her poetry. And to think a year ago she was just the micro poet who seemed to travel to cool places a lot. This "little" project has meant so much more to me than just a creative outlet. And also to think, twenty five days in and I haven't even been to the loony bin yet! Okay, well hopefully haven't even been" not "yet". :)This isn't "unsound mind and body" for nothing. About the card: watercolor pencil and glaze pen on vellum, on paper, on card stock with paper, marker, and glitter glue accents. Also, the title is kind of a joke that I wonder if anyone will get... The gauntlet is thrown! (I'll give you a hint, it might not be pronounced how you think it is.)
