Black Shadow Creations

My site is named after my Black Lab, Shadow. Shadow received his name by being my constant shadow including while I am crafting. The running joke in my family was that due to the whole 'Labs shed A LOT', everything I created had a signature 'Shadow' hair hidden somewhere... While Shadow is no longer with us, I am lovingly reminded of him every time a random hair shows up in my craft room. Like our loved ones, Lab hair never really leaves us and that is a pretty comforting thought!

Get Well Wishes

I needed a few more cards for my stash of 'last minute' cards and decided to make a get well card. I used the sketch from Stamping 411 to get me started. Here's the sketch...

and here's my card...

I also made a birthday card for one of my best friends using this layout. The only difference is on the label, I cut out and pasted the numbers 2 & 9 from the DSP Play Date, since she's celebrating her 29th birthday (again!) It's the most amazing thing, I'm a year older than her, but she is turning 29 this week and I will be 29 next month. Math never was our best subject ;-)

Card Recipe: Cardstock-old olive, so saffron, chocolate chip, Play Date & tempting turquoise DSP, Ink-versamark, so saffron, and tempting turquoise, Stamp Sets- Butterfly Prints, and Word Play, Accessories- decorative label, scallop circle, scallop border, 1" circle and 3/4 circle punches

Stamping 411 has some great sketches, but it's what YOU do with them that really brings them to life. I LOVE this card!!! :D
