DICC #69- The Stamping Boutique

Uncategorized

1 Jan

Happy 2014! It’s time for a new Desert Islands Crafters Challenge, sponsored this time by The Stamping Boutique. Here is the itinerary. Please remember to use at least 3 items on the list of you want to play along.

1. Glitter
2. Ribbon
3. Die Cut
4. Airbrushing or Spray (perfect Pearls, Glimmer Mist, Dylusions, etc.)
5. Snowflakes
6. Winter Theme with Summer Colors
7. Stencil
8. 3 Layers
9. Pocket
10. Distressing

I used #’s 1, 2, 4, 7, and 10. Now….I’m going to be honest. I hate how this card turned out. I had such high hopes…and my ideas were good. But in the end…this was a bomb. Now, you may say, why would I start the first project of the year with a piece that I don’t even like? Because bad pieces can come at any time, and it’s ok. You’ve gotta just accept it and move on. I am going to rip the whole thing apart and start over. It’s an adorable image, but my color choices didn’t work as I had wanted, and it went downhill from there. I love the stencil I used from Dreamweaver….that’s probably the best part of the whole card. The itinerary s great too. But the card… It’s just…a mess. And that’s ok. Now that I’ve made this…I know the next bunch will be better. ‘Cause most anything has to be better than this right?! 😉
Ok. Moving on………………………………….
Please be sure to check out the GREAT projects made by my teamies at the DICC blog. And don’t worry…I’ll have some good stuff this week! Lol Thanks for stopping by!
