the Majestic Moose

 

Et typisk mannfolk kort, veldig enkelt kort og lage, men ikke helt CAS alikevel. Prøver fremdeles å finne ut formelen for å lage 'rene og enkle' kort, vet jo det er 'bare' å holde seg til åpne/tomme oftest hvite rene flater og gjerne kun en detalj eller to på kortet. Jeg beundrer de som får det til ~ slik som Jennifer McGuire. Føler liksom alltid at jeg 'må' tilføre mere detaljer og mere distressing når jeg lager et kort. Muligens er min hjerne for rotete... eller for mye på bølgelengde med Tim Holtz ;) MEn jeg gir ikke opp jakten på et CAS kort enda! 

Jeg har forresten en blogcandy som du kan være med på trekningen til ~ her ~ om du enda ikke har sett den! Bare noen dager igjen!

while the direct translation from norwegian is 'You're totally a KING!', 
the meaning of it is that you are awesome and that You RULE! in english.

A quick share today with a masculine card that was super easy to make, although with the lack of empty or white space, not sure it counts as a CAS card. Still trying to find out how to do those... I greatly admire those able to do clean & simple cards, like Jennifer McGuire ~ I always feel I 'have' to add some form of distressing to it, and more and more details, until it's completely filled up and that empty space eludes me... My brain is possibly to messy or to tuned into Tim Holtz ;) Gonna keep on trying for that CAS card though! 

Don't forget there is still time to join in one of my blogcandies here, just a few days left though! :)
