One more try

So I'm giving it one more try ... Trying out for the Christmas Card Challenge design team . I've tired out for a few recently, hoping to find one that is the right fit for me . This one seems perfect ! I make tons of Christmas cards every year , I married in to a huge family ... So this will help me get those done without the last minute stresses . Fingers crossed !

One last post

Back again today with one last post for the day . I really wanted to try out this technique ... Faux brush lettering . I love the look of brush lettering . I think I need more practice with this or a different stamp ? I'm submitting it anyway . I used the giga guide lines stamp for the card base , I love that stamp set . I used all the time when I first got it . Thanks for visiting .

MIM242

Hello , it was a long painful day at work today so I'll keep it short tonight . Full moon / health care = many emergencies . In case you didn't know I work in eye care , for a retinal speciality group ... Kind of the final frontier of eye care .. If you are in our office it's not good , so I see some pretty sad things ... Today was one of those days . To try to calm my nerves I make cards . Ink makes me happy and ink stained fingers make interesting focal points . This card is for PTI 's MIM sponge stamping . Thanks for stopping by .
