I am tellin' ya.....

I think I have adult ADHD!!!! How does this happen....3 1/2 hours ago I was going to post this card. It all started so innocently....I went to Heather Scott's blog to try to find the blog of the person that I tried this background idea...so I could link to it....
We'll I never made it there...cause I saw a post about favorite quotes. So I had to rush over to that site...which just happened to be the TAC Savvy Projects blog. At that point, I was completely inspired by Mischelle's photo creations with the quote's....that off I went to PhotoShop....I can do a watermark...surely I can do that.....
First photo....put that Michael Jordan quote on a picture of my daughter pitching....could that be good enough for the evening...OHHHH NOPE....I had to figure out ( I have NO photo shop experience) how to get the picture on just one part of a page and have the color on the background so I could have text on the side...yeap...I figured it out (once).....and it is now 12:17am....I am posting this card...I still haven't found the link to the inspiration site for this technique ( the other person used a pop can and embossed- I used tin foil...inked....dried and then embossed with cuddlebug...it is really delicate to work with). Oh and the exciting part....all those eyelets....only because I bought a Big Bite to day with my 40% off coupon from Hobby Lobby. Gotta work on getting them a little straighter :) Not my most favorite card but maybe it will inspire someone else. As for me I am shutting this stupid machine off...before I find something else I just have to do....7am is getting closer and closer by the minute!

Oh, man this is a very cool technique, it appears to have movement. Now I have to search Heather's blog to find the link, oh no now I have Adult ADHD. LOL I missed seeing you this year in Kansas. Hope all is well.

Hugs, Maria

Hey Eva! I think it was Angela K - Artistic Detours

Maybe?

I hope that adult ADHD is not contagious - well actually I think I may already have it!

LOVE this background! Guess I'll have to give it a try.

Maybe if you used the 'heavy duty' aluminum foil it would hold up better (since you mentioned it was delicate). MUCH less likely to cut yourself than if you use a pop can.
