Dan LIVES for deer season to start....he is like a child waiting for Santa to arrive !!! I will be a widow, until January 31ST, the last day of deer season.I would post a picture of the the huge 7 point he killed Tuesday, with his Black Powder gun, but I don't want to creep y'all out!! So, his birthday is Monday and of course I had to make a card with a buck on it.I used Camp Out for the log cabin, trees, buck and moon. Gypsy Wanderings for the lettering and the hearts...the "smoke" coming from the chimney. I used a punch for those tiny lil stars.I also got out a lighter and scorched the edges of the background paper, to give it a more rustic look.Lots of inking and layering....those lil stars were a bugger to ink, but I did ! Added some distressing stickles here and there, lots of popping and added the dark brown hemp cord.Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a peek!! I hope Y'all have a great weekend !!!

Welcome to My World
This sight is dedicated to the art of card making....of which I am addicted ! I began making cards a few months before Dan was deployed to Iraq.I wanted to make sure he had a new card to open every day, so I used BlueMountian.Co and created him 2 months worth of cards !About a year ago I saw that famous infomercial for a little bug called a Cricut.Well, after watching it numerous times, I HAD to have it...and I ordered it!!!Then I found the Cricut Message Board and I hit pay dirt!!! I was, and still am so inspired by some of the talented women on that board!I have to give them credit for making me the card maker that I am today!!!
Thank you ladies, from the bottom of my heart!
I hope you enjoy looking at my cards, as much as I enjoy making them!!!

That's a wonderful card Joy.... I love how you added the little hearts!
Great guy card Joy! Very manly accents. Really got a kick out of scorching the paper. (I'm sure I would have burned up the card) LOL Sweet additon of the smoke hearts too. Hope he isn't on the roof with his gun when Rudolph comes. :D xxD
This is a great card Joy!!! Last time I scorched paper was for a 'pirate map' I made for my neighbor's 5th b-day party!! TFS
Thanks for leaving the nice comment on the Cricut Messageboard for my Custom Crops Mystery Challenge album!!

Well, Joy, I saw your card and got out the old Camp Out cart! Was so inspired by your woodsy scene that I designed one for Custom Crops! I love all the little extras you used like the stars and the moon and the twine is perfect!
