Sometimes not getting the chance to get in your Craft Room is a good thing!

Well yesterday I posted that I needed to get in my craft room...

I got the chance to make a quick card yesterday afternoon. It ended up being a Christmas card all because I found a cute stamp I had! I still need to add the sentiment but it is finished otherwise.

I was hoping to get to a few other cards I started but never finished for Fiskateers - Card Lifters.

SO, today I had to get a birthday card made for a gathering this afternoon.

I am in love with this card...I think nature themed card are so fun to do!
I find that these cards are where my layering and creativity come out the most!

READY to SEE what I did? OK, in a minute...

I use my old cell phone as my MP3 player for music in my craft room.
While I was building the card I took pictures with that old phone as I went. That way you can see the layers and steps.

I will be posting the steps later in another post. Since I got a party to get to!!!!

If It's Groovy - Out of Focus Challenge

This challenge was a little out of the norm in that you should find a way to take a pic out of focus and turn that pic(s) into a layout. Well, I just happened to be scrapbooking our annual trips to PA. My Aunt and Uncle's property, which has a pond that is stocked full of fish. My husband, Gerry happened to finally in his element and I took a pic. Well, the picture below is what I ended up with. It's blurry but one of the best "Peace at Last" pictures I currently have.
