Thought I would play along with the Tuesday Trigger this week.
It was a really interesting image, and when I saw it I thought of the striped border from my Neat and Tangled On the Strip 2 set. I stamped the border on vellum with my neon inks, cut them out and adhered them to the card.
This card is 4x6, I think the skinnier/taller size really works with the design.
AND, I got some happy mail last week - my very first Ribbon Carousel!
Isn't it pretty? I tend to move around the house a bit when I'm working - mostly going downstairs to work on projects while I watch TV with Andrew. I'm forever trucking back up and down the stairs to bring stuff down. I loaded this up with my most often used trims as I figure it's going to make life easier - one trip and won't have to worry about putting them back since they are already where they're supposed to be. It holds a lot too - I've got lost more space for more favorites. ;)
Hope your weekend is going well. I've been taking advantage of the fact that we have free premium channels on demand right now to watch some movies that I have neglected to watch: Pitch Perfect (which incidentally is not a movie about baseball), The Odd Life of Timothy Green, and Argo.
