Have Yourself a Merry LITTLE Christmas ... We are to feature Inchies and Twinchies in our design this week.
My title...5x5...are you wondering what that means? No it isn't the size of my card for today...
My card is 5.5 x 5.5....hmmm....see that blue background of mine?
There are 5 inchies across by 5 inchies down which is a total of 25 inchies ladies....No I did not make 4 of this particular design since I stitched a TON on this puppy....all around the perimeter and down the lines of inchies...8 lines by 8 lines...does that make sense...anywho's it has a whole heckalotta stitching....the ornaments? I picked them up at Ellen Hutson's....they are Basic Grey by Sizzix....LOVE them....all the paper is Echo Park's Everybody Loves Christmas....the sentiment is SRM and the bling is Kaisercrafts.
I finally broke down and bought a light tent...I'm still trying to get the hang of it and so I'll be playing around with it this week:) Thanks to Heather that recommended this one....I have it set up in my garage...I FREEZE out there so I try to do everything quickly..LOL. I do need to put the manufacturers white backdrop in there...right now there is cardstock and you can tell...grrr...but dang the one that came with the tent is horribly wrinkled and I wasn't patient enough to sit there and iron all that out...live and learn Amy...Live and learn...
