EightySeven-Elizabeth Two


Stupid scanner with the dulling out of the sparkly pink paper and the "smudge" marks.

EightySix-Kaylee


EightyFive-Elizabeth(My Third Assignment)

Sniff, sniff. My little niece Elizabeth is "graduating" preschool on Friday. My mother commissioned a graduation card and I think I made a pretty kick ass one but of course the one I maker from ME will hopefully be even more kick ass. :)

EightyFour-Kirigami

Mesmerized by Beth Stone's unbelievable paper cuts, I couldn't resist trying my hand at it when I saw this book on kirigami (with paper!) in the bargain aisle at Barnes and Noble. I picked the first and most simple pattern and still struggled a little but overall I like the effect. The two little tendrils on the outside are supposed to facing the other way but being the measure none, cut once person I am the card wasn't long enough to fit the curls in the "right" direction, so I just turned them 180 degrees.
