If you popped by here on tuesday, you read that it was my boy's birthday...if you're seeing this particular post on Wednesday, I'm behind and didn't get my normal Jingle Belle's card done for today because I was too busy celebrating my boy's birthday last night:)
Mobile crafting...I'm not so good at it. I can't seem to pack the right things...crafting at Darin's should be easy'ish...I have a Janome, a paper cutter {ugh, a purple cow one...I can't seem to get the right measurements?!}, ATG gun...the basics...they are all stored at his place...but not the paper and embellies...those are the things I need to pack. Well, I thought I packed my stash of Basic Grey Life of the Party Line...NOT...then I realized I tend to be all girly...not much in the unisex stuff...especially in what I did pack with me.
I did happen to bring along the Pebbles Happy Go Lucky line and was able to squeeze out a pretty stinkin' cute dude card:
My kids are my biggest fans {and biggest critics} of my work...the boy thinks CAS is lame...taking the easy way out...too plain...personally, I think CAS is a work of art...it has to be done 'just so'....anywho's...I was pretty pleased with this card...the orange circles? I used a votive candle base to trace the shape and cut it out..talk about good 'ole craftin'....you'll be happy to know that I got the 'thumbs up' on this card...oh yeah, note to self, bring a stash of envies to Darin's...LOL. The boy absolutely knew I wrapped the gift since it was in a Janome box and The Twinery Caribbean that topped off his package...{yes, I did retrieve the box and the twine!}....
Here's another pic from my boy's birthday party...me and darin...sooooo happy to have him in my life...
Life is Good.
