Hey, everyone, hope you had a great weekend! Me, I'm glad to finally get this page finished - seems like I've been working on it for weeks!!! I needed to make a project for November's Seriously Creative Challenge:
I've been seeing wood veneer accents everywhere these days, but I didn't have any of my own. Then I saw this video, and inspiration hit! I was able to cut these word bubbles out of some Studio Calico Take Note wood grain paper on my Cameo using a free file found here.
Then I made this paper doll using another free file found here:
The Cameo got a good workout on this page - I cut the title, glasses, and notebook border using cut files from the Silhouette store. Oh, and the star panel was pre-cut earlier, if you recall from my post here.
And here's the sketch I used from Let's Get Sketchy:
I just love this picture of Ailis! I took it the day she got her new glasses. I was hoping that all the kids would inherit Jason's superior eyesight, but I guess with three kids, chances are at least one of them will get my lousy eyes! That's the thing with genetics, it's a bit of a gamble! Anyway, with her new haircut and specs, she could probably pass for 15, which is a little scary!!! We'll just have to keep her locked up at home, eh? Shotguns at the ready, haha!
Well, must get Brenna Bean out of her high chair. We have places to go and things to see, but thanks for looking, and I'll have December Daily progress to report soon. Oh, and if you've made anything using wood, or even trees (i.e. Christmas trees will work!), be sure to link it up to our Seriously Creative Challenge!
