Starring

This looks so simple, so how come it took so long to make?  That distressing takes time, sometimes more than I think it will.  What happens is I just get lost in it.  The tv or radio can be on but I don't hear it, I'm in my own little happy space.  I hope your crafting time is as enjoyable as mine.

The only stamping on this card is the plaid dp, it's done with one of those really big background stamps.  I wish I could tell you who made it and what its name is but there are no markings on it.  I think I got it on e-Bay. 









This box is the inspiration for this card.  It's full of threads and sits right next to my chair at my scrapbox. 










This is the side of the box, where I got the idea for the polka dot paper.
