Hello everyone, Brianna here with you all for today’s post. I’ve got something a little bit different for you today. Why you ask? Well, today I am letting you get a look into my creative process, if you wanna call it that, I consider it more of an un-organized creative mess *grin* It gets the job done though and it works for me. I never really know what I am going to do when creating. I usually start with the stamp set I will be using, I then usually pick out my patter papers based on the theme of the stamp set. I like to color after I pick out my papers because I want my color combos to coordinate, I am kinda OCD like that. I don’t usually follow any type of sketch unless one is provided to me to follow along with, I just go with the flow and choose my layout as I am putting my card together. It’s the same concept with embellishments, once I get my card all done I will just start laying things out on my card that I feel I might want to use, If I like what I see then I will adhere it down. Here are a couple of photos I took along the way, while creating my latest card.

Stamp set used: Little Darling Jack

Here are a couple pictures showing how I mask my image to stamp some snowflakes.

Now that my images are all done and embossed, I can start my coloring. For today’s card, I used my Spectrum Noir markers.

This card was very simple and and the only embellishments, I used were: a button, ribbon and white twine.

I no longer have my own craft room. My three-year old moved out of his nursery ( my old craft room before he was born) into my newer craft room (bigger, better, more room/space, more toys) and I moved into the basement, also mine and the hubby’s sleeping quarters. Eventually we are going to have another child so we wanted to keep the nursery open for when that happens. The sacrifices we have to make! My peanut loves his new room and as long as he is happy, I am happy. I am still fortunate enough to have somewhat of my own space.

Here is a  picture of my craft corner/wall.
