I guess I must have been totally "scrapped out" from last weekend, as I didn't even look at, or unpack, my scrapping supplies until last night!
Berg has a birthday party today so I had to come up with a card for a litttle boy, who will be 6. Now, I must admit that I'm no good with " boy" cards and almost bought one while shopping for his gift, but I found myself saying to myself, "NO! you can do this!" So I did! This card is actually one I started a while ago, and ended up not liking, so, I tore it apart and started over and I'm pleased with the end resut!
Now, I'm not sure how most people come up with the cards they make? Myself, I just tend to sit down, pick different things up, and play around until something I like starts to form. Every once in a while though an idea will come to me and I'll try to see if I can make it work. So yesterday, while reading ( yes, I know, I don't understand my mind either!) I had a thought for a card using varying points, kinda like scallops, but with points, and thought I'll have to play with that tonight. Then, the more I thought about it, I thought it might me nice to throw some lacing into the mix. So, I played around with it, and am pleased with how it turned out! The PP is from my K&Co. mat pack and I used red ribon to try and pick up on the tiny red dots in the PP.

Selena, good for you that you can come up with your own designs, my mind gets so blank, I need to borrow things from other people's cards. I like your boy birthday card, it came out real nice. I am in love with your sewing. I look forward to seeing your blog to see what you've come up with.
