Hello! The weather is finally cooling off here and it actually rained so that helped so much with all the sticky, humid weather we had before. And finally I can feel the wind blowing through the windows. It's hard to craft when I'm feeling all sticky and sweaty.
I don't know where all the time is going. I think I've been procrastinating and now I realize there are 3 hours worth of Grey's Anatomy reruns on TV every day! Too many distractions! I have some images colored up but can't seem to get into making them into cards.
Here is my little creation for CC Designs September review which is all about pirates.
I made this little box from this tutorial over at Splitcoaststampers. It is a tutorial on how to make a box to hold small cards but I think it makes a cute little treat holder. After I made my box, I had to make 2 more for my youngest who now is asking me to help him make fancier crafty things. Now, he wants me to use my dies to cut out his images too! He loves all the fancy shapes. Sometimes crafting with him is like just him crafting and me helping. I can't get much of my own things done.
I used CC Cutters Grunge Tag die and embossed one of the sentiments from Webbie's Words Pirate Sayings on to it. I also used some other sentiments from the set and stamped those onto MFT's vertical giftcard die. The grunge tag die fits nicely in there.
Here is a close up of Roberto's Rascals Pirate Henry.
