Whew!
Finally...I have a chance to come up for some air! :-) Busy just isn't a strong enough word that would describe my last couple of weeks! LOL! It's late now (or early...depending on which coast you live on...teeheheee). My littlest one (who's is pretty sick with a cold right now) finally fell back asleep, so I thought I would share with you this GORGEOUS card Julee Tilman sent me!
Isn't this just stunning??!!!? I have seen this Crate paper around, and have almost bought it...but I can tell you that I am now on a mission to get some! I had to email her and ask her how she colored these flowers. She actually mixed some reinker drops with Crystal Effects and painted it on. It is soooo pretty IRL! You can check out Julee's blog Poetic Artistry to see more of her beautiful work! Julee is also the owner and stamp designer extraordinary of Verve Visual. Thank you Julee, for this wonderful card!
I received some emails from several of you asking if all is o.k. Thank you so much for your kindness!! We are all o.k. (although my littlest one now has a nasty cold and doesn't care much for sleeping right now). It has been so wild here, though! When I'm not as tired, I will tell you all a few of our "stories". I keep telling myself that these will become funny later on....MUCH later! LOL! Let me just say one word.... SKUNK!!!
On a much brighter note, the November Splitcoast Fan Club Gallery is UP! That's partly why I've been absent here...was just trying to finish up some of my projects. I did receive a brand new set from Stampin Up! today (it will be available in the Spring Summer catalog) and plan on inking it up tomorrow! So check back to see some brand new stuff!
Oh...and more good news! I about fell outta my chair! I hadn't checked my counter for so long, and when I finally saw it...it had passed 200,000! Woooaaahh Nellie! Woohoo! Be on the lookout for some "JUST GIVE ME THE GOODIES" surprises in the next couple of days!
Have a great morning! ~Laurie
