an in person visit with our youngest son yesterday
final version of my project from yesterday posted earlier this morning
a slight shift in direction for the weekends is feeling like the right thing to do.
a little play time…
Decided to get a little play time in this week and do a little designing and creating. The file was created in SCAL. After the first cut and assembly, I opted to make a few changes to the file – And I think the time spent making the changes was worth it. I’ll still keep the version above — but I think I’ll continue to play with the newer file adaptation shown below.
Both are shelf sitters — Finished size of the body is 4.2 x 4.5 x .325 inches. I did place some “filler” in the box to make it a little sturdier. The results were worth it.
Inspired by a design found on Pinterest.
American Craft paper, Bazill cardstock
Also used in making these: Ohuhu and Spectrum Noir Markers, white paint pen, chalk, foam tape strips, Distress Ink, Bearly Art glue
SCAL 6 Pro
Skycutter C24

new shelf sitter penguin design cut and assembled — it’s cute but needs some changes in the file
quiet day overall – no nap, but I did relax for a little while with a book
Great family news: a nephew and his wife are expecting their first baby – we have a new grandma in the family!
