Something for Alice

So, My friend Alice claims my cards are worth more then the time and trouble and money it cost ed her to pick up a marvy punchie for me at the lss... haha. so, I made this for her last night. (gonna let her pick a card out of my stash next time she is over too) but, this started out looking at a dare to get dirty sketch but, i tweaked it too much to post for that i think. the sketch is not for a square card and the vertical ribbon is wrong for the sketch too... this was done on Basic Grey pp. (from an 6X6 sized pad) did you know they re-size the paper smaller for those pads so the big big patterns work better for cards on them that way? fun stuff i found. the Little shoppers is from Art Impressions, the Tag Alphabet is from SU and up on pop dots, the Love printed flower is from Heidi Grace. (can you believe i found that at my Joann's?!? not me either) the chocolate satin ribbon is from Offray and a recent wal-mart find. (also found it a little wider for like 10 yards on a roll for less than 2.00) Anyways, we are off to do some shopping in Medford today... Happy Mail is coming to me today too, I DID remember to order a printer and this time around i ordered an Wide format with all the ink colors in their own cartridges kind. (fun stuff) They are offering 50.00 off of HP printers at Staples and then they have 40.00 rebates on them... (so this printer will cost significantly less than the one that just died) Yay :) Have a good day! :)

Hmmm I didn't know that about the BG pads- that they shrunk the designs. I just bought a $19.99 pack of the 12 x 12 on Tuesday. Your card is inspiring me to go use it!
