Hello everyone! I won’t be crafting this weekend because I had to come with my parents to Iquique. Well, as we say in spanish “When the captain orders, soldiers follow”. Not good for me, I have a bit of a problem with authority :pSo, here’s a little sketch for you, that have time to stamp but no ideas. It’s a little remake of some old cards I made months ago. I want to make a set with this sketch using In-Colors and the “Gently Falling” retired SU! set. Oh, the grey thing in the bottom part of the main image is supposed to be ribbon :p I also made a little tutorial about how to make scallops in Adobe Photoshop. I bet there’s an easier way, but for now, this is how I do it (click on “Read more” for the tutorial)
(more…)

Following the great example given to me by my dearest friend Laura, and now that I got Photoshop and we reconciliated after years of being separated (LOL), I decided to try my hand at sketching cards :)

Their main purpose right now is to be fillers for when I don’t have time to post a card or some other project, and to serve as inspiration to all of you. I hope that, with time, this turns into a challenge of some sort. It’ll also encourage me to sketch more and have some more ideas for my cards :)

This sketch has “08/05/07″ on my sketchbook, it’s obviously pretty old and the first one I made by myself. I don’t know why the idea for this sketch has haunted me for months and I still haven’t actually make it. Of course I had a lot of excuses: the set I had in mind (”Gently Falling”, SU! retired) wasn’t in my hands yet, I didn’t had chipboard to make the big sign and then, I was a mess at stitching. Now I have set, as a personal challenge, to make this card as soon as I can, so it’ll get out of my brain for once, leaving room for more ideas.

The layer on the left doesn’t have to have a zig-zag edge, what I actually wanted to show was zig-zag stitching. Or could be doodling too (just thought of that one, lolz).
