Stars and Hearts
I really want to make Christmas cards.
Great time to think about them, huh?
Since it's Christmas day and all.
Let's just say I'm a year early.
I've come up with an idea for cards that involve Gelli® prints and . . .surprise, surprise. . . hand carved STAMPS. The first part is a heart inside a star.
I was pretty upset with myself when I slipped with the gouge and broke into the line of the star the first time. But what are you going to do at that point? Start over? I think not.
Then I did it AGAIN!
Good grief.
I kept carving.
UGH I did it a THIRD time!!!
Good thing I was done carving by then.
I stamped the star and found I LOVE the breaks in the lines! So lets just forget all I just told you about it being a mistake and pretend I planned on cutting into the lines in the first place.
It will be our little secret.
While playing with the stamp I found they made a cute little wreath.
My wreath looks more Independence Day than Christmas Day but it's okay.
I'm working 7 months ahead.
