Well, I'm back from Paperganza, and my intent is little by little, sharing a bit about the projects and companies behind them over the next week or so... I'm still adjusting to being back, however, and it's been not quite a week yet... I finally sorted through my loot yesterday, and filed things where they need to be in my craft room... So, while I'm between Design Team deadlines, and I actually finished my Craft Roulette last night... I'll probably do some sharing about my Kansas City trip this week, with pictures and details of the projects that we did. I'm ready to start some purchases even because of it.
That being said... I mentioned I finished my Craft Roulette, Episode #278, my 84th entry. I'm getting closer to that big 100 "Mug Club" status.
While at Paperganza, I met the wonderful Tanya, the owner of Riley and Company . I already am familiar with this very fun line of stamps...some adorable animals and accessories, super silly sentiments, dies, supplies and more...it's a great line for sure, and front and center of it all...is the fun fun fun moose, Riley. I just had to have more Rileys. So, I went shopping...
Who would have thunk that this week's Craft Roulette parameters would send me in the Riley direction!
And I fussy cut by hand...he's pretty easy to, and popped him up with dim tape!
This may be a bit more simple than what I usually do, but my brain was convinced I needed to be simple, and I kind of like not working on a card for endless hours...so simple it is.
The parameters:
1. Project: Thank You
2. Colors: Bakery
3. Element: Shop / Shops / Shopping
4. Random: Ombre
I think it's all pretty self-explanatory here...You do see a cupcake, so my cafe is actually a small coffee/bakery shop.... I also feel, the shopping parameter is covered by me "shopping" at Paperganza...this is one of my new stamps. My window is ombre. I had so much fun with this window! I actually applied a small film of transparent / holographic film, you can kind of see what it's like as I took a picture of my card on top of a sheet of it. My window, looks like a real life window, so up close in your hand, it gives it a really cool vibe. I struggled with lighting, I may try to get a close up later to share.
So, that's about it for today. I'm hoping to get all my Paperganza posts finished by next week's Craft Roulette . As always, I can't emphasize more, how good it's been for me to play along every Friday night. If you are looking for something different and fun, I encourage anyone to dial in!
