I sat at my desk yesterday, determined to make something. Sometimes I just need to sit down and start cutting paper to get myself motivated. Fun Stampers Journey just released their first ever patterned paper sets. Who doesn't love patterned paper? Collecting it is an addiction. Some of my friends seriously need help (you know who you are. LOL). So, I grabbed the pack of Halloween themed paper and the paper with the cats all over it, their gorgeous yellow eyes staring out at me, called my name. My first attempt at making a card with this paper flopped. I was trying too hard. Do you ever do that? You just want the card to be out of this world, hit one out of the ball park good, better than anyone else's you've ever seen amazing? Ya, that's me sometimes. What usually happens when I get in that mind set is that I end up messing the card or project up. After tearing apart the first card here is one I came up with for the second and final card. I hope it inspires you to make something. It's not about how you compare to others, it's about doing your best while loving what you do.
This other card I made a few days ago (again, it was a second attempt). I used the Day of the Dead stamp set from Fun Stampers Journey, the Journey Glaze and the Journey Sparkle Dust.
