Our Change of Art: February 2014

birthday card AND a video!

As you may know, I'm trying to work on my video skillz (yes, I did just write that, lol!). I cringe when I look at videos I made a year ago....not counting the craft dash ones though, because those were so much fun! Note to self: do more timed videos :)

This weekend marked the tail end of my February break- I'm actually looking forward to going back to work tomorrow! Time at home was fun, but I miss going to school. However, I did have time to whip up 2 videos...this one, and another that you will see in a few weeks.

Sorry that it is kind of long...I was making the card up as I went along :)

(watch video below, or in HD on YouTube)

In case you don't want to watch the vid, the layout comes from Studio Calico's Sunday Sketch. Have a great night!!

Hey everyone! Today is a Runway Inspired Challenge day, and here's the outfit I picked out for you, from Diane von Furstenberg's collection:

First of all, sorry for the sub-par photograph. I've been trying to get myself out of my lightbox, and I'm still working on the lighting in my craft room!

I was so excited to use these acrylic letters that I picked up at Michael's. They are a translucent black (you can see the translucency in person). I was inspired by the bold color and use of stripes in the dress.

Please visit the other designers, and I hope you choose to play along!

sugar rush

This is my second post today...to check out my PTI challenge card, scroll down or click HERE.

Below is my entry for the Cure for the Monday Blues challenge #4. I still had some glitter on my desk, and it reminded me of the sugar on the little treats that are in the inspiration photo.

Somewhat related: Have you ever eaten Trader Joe's Fruit Jellies? Ohhhh man- the little sugar crystals and gummy candy are heavenly.
