Humidity, humidity, humidity

Well, it has been a really humid day here in Cairns. The journal articles that I am meant to be reading for my doctorate feel all damp and now when I go to stamp, my cardstock is all soggy. This means that you dont get the nice crisp images (hence stamps having a blotchy look). It is so humid today I have actually turned on the air con which is unusual for this time of year.

So my method of procrastination today was Keesha's challenge. Thinking that a card would be too quick (and then I would have to study again) I went for something a little 3D. Keesha's challenge this week was a colour challenge. I have never done a 3D thing like this. They are quite fiddly. Here are the colours:
And here is the creation. A little box. I am not sure I have used the right blue as it has come out of the scrap bag but I know the rest of the colours are right.
The stamp set is cottage garden from the autumn/winter mini. The 'for you' is from vintage labels. It is funny how you look at a stamp set in a catalogue and think 'yeah, I could do lots with that' and then when you get it, it seems a bit more difficult than you thought. That is my feeling towards the 'cottage garden' stamp set at the moment.
This is the back side of the box with a little tag. For a fiddly little creation I think it turned out quite well.
Maybe I should do some dusting. Its a bit embarrasing when you can see it in the photo. Perhaps that is what I will do next to procrastinate.
I have more of this weekends creations in the previous post (I have been procrastinating alot!).
Have a good weekend
