You’re A Deer
Do you ever feel like all of your cards look the same time and time again? I go through this quite often. (And no, it’s not because many of them feature sequins) I think it’s my layouts and colors that strike a familiar chord, so it makes me feel like they look the same. My remedy? Changing up colors and layouts periodically!
Today I have a card to share that features new DeNami stamps that I love so very much, along with a more subtle color palette. I love neutral colors and making a card using several different shades of neutrals is always refreshing. However, I still had to add a teeny bit of color in way of some aqua.
TIP: If you’re new to sequins, adding a trio of them to the corner of a card or tag is the PERFECT way to add some bling to your project, without going overboard. Also, this is a great way to add a little extra color to your projects.
I know I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again- I need a clone or an assistant to help me with my massive amount of to-do items. However, if we went with a clone, I would ask for a healthy one. These last few days have been “bad health days” and I did nothing but sleep and lay in bed for a good 36 hours. Thankfully, my new insurance kicked in and I can resume doctor visits again. Last year, I maxed out my visits really quickly and just about everything was out of pocket, which was not pleasant. Now that I have a whole new batch of visits, I’m hoping we can start narrowing down what’s wrong with me and resume the pursuit of getting me on the path to health again.
That’s going to wrap up today’s post. Thanks for stopping in and spending some time with me!
I love this card Paulina, the soft neutrals are perfect for this little deer!! I’m so sorry you had a bad weekend. Sending hugs and feel better soon wishes your way :)
Sending you wishes for better health in 2014. You will be in my prayers.
Lovely deer card! Thanks for the tips using sequins :)
I will keep praying for you and your health, Paulina.
I can totally relate to the “cards looking the same” syndrome. I’ve been trying to get myself out of that rut. Adore the softness of this card, the little circle tucked under with the sentiment (I have such a hard time putting circles on my cards!), and the pearls in the centers of your yummy sequins. Praying for you, my friend!
I love this card and I can’t wait to ink up the new deer stamp and sentiment! I wish there was a way for me to help you out! I hope the doctors can help you this year – you deserve to be happy and healthy.
Pauline, the ‘in a rut’ syndrome is afflicting me immensely. Your card and post are perfect timing; perfect inspiration. Thank you for sharing this gem with us – felling inspired! Sending big wishes to you that you’ll feel vibrant and healthy once again! You still continue to amaze and delight, even though you’re feeling not so great. You are remarkable!!
