A Perplexing Journey

I blog about; life with my loving husband, & our cats Siggy, and Maddie. Stuff in the news, my crafts, memes, photo posts & various other things that catch my fancy. I really like working at home, my husband appreciates my roll as housewife, and I find it my most rewarding job yet. We still hope to have children, though we still don't have any yet.

Dragon Moo card


Update: I've since worked on this some more. Once I got it in my head that I was going to add it to my bathroom I just had to finish it. I downloaded the Geisha image and used the bird from the other image that had the dragon on it. I changed my mind on the red star brads and sewed the pieces together with navy blue thread. then I mounted them on another piece of scrapbook paper, and then I mounted that on a piece of origami paper.


I've never heard of a moo card before. And with enjoying ATC's I thought this was an interesting challenge. A moo card is even smaller then an ATC so making something that fits in such a small place was a challenge. I made this thinking I'll eventually have it as part of another art project for the bathroom. I got the dragon image from Karen's Whimsy Altered it down to just the dragon, printed it on velum, and then tacked it to scrapbook paper with red star brads. Then I stamped it all with a flower stamp from "Fun with Pattern" by Fifi Weinert
