After a little encouragement from some online friends and some deliberation on my part I thought I could give this blog thing a try. Who knows what I might have to say - might be a little, might be a lot. Might be interesting. Might be not. Hey, I'm a poet; and I didn't even know it.
I'm sorry, you'll probably be subjected to my wacky humor at times. It's alright; I know I'm weird. :)
The card above was a quickie I put together one Saturday afternoon with some bits and pieces I had laying around. I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I think I might stamp the sentiment on another piece of kraft CS and then place it on pop-dots on top of the current saying. That way there won't be that distracting background running through it. Live and learn.
Stamps: Basic Backgrounds: Retro (Papertrey Ink); sentiment (Hero Arts)
Ink: Fresh Snow (Papertrey Ink); Van Dyke Brown (Nick Bantok)
Paper: Bazzill
Other: SU! Bigz Butterfly dies, SU! heart, corner rounder, stitching
I need to figure out how to make this page a bit prettier. I also need to think of a better blog title (that's the best I could come up with today.) But, I guess for now, I'll just focus on trying to figure out what I'm doing! :) Thanks for stopping by!

Welcome to blog world! I like your card! If you find out how to decorate your blog please clue us in. I have no clue how to do anything cool to my blog banner and designs!
You've got a blog!! Awesome! Thanks for the tip about the sentiment - I just made a card and couldn't figure out why I didn't like it...it's because the background is running thru it!! Im going to re-stamp it and pop it up now! ;o)
Oh I forgot to say that the little heart on the butterfly wing is too cute! Great card! TFS on your brand new blog!

Welcome to the world of Blogging! I'm sure you will love it and we will love seeing your projects. I couldn't get into your 3Peas page, so I'm really glad you've created this. As for decoration, try searching around the Blogger community. That's how I found http://hotbliggityblog.com and I'm quite happy with it. Also look carefully at Blogs you enjoy. There may be a banner that will link to another site with free backgrounds. But mainly, have fun. We'll keep peeking in.
