That’s what I told myself today. I walked into Michaels on my way home from work, armed with my40% coupon to buy a specific punch for a special card (more on that later). I walked by this display and found all this wonderful coordinating stuff!
Each item was only $1.50. Therefore, it doesn’t count. I didn’t really spend all that much. They had much more, but I limited myself to this haul here. I couldn’t wait to rip open my new finds, and so after 8.5 hours on the road, in a terrible rain storm that created about 3 ft of visibility, I somehow found my second wind and sat down at my craft table. I needed some thank you and birthday cards for a customer order; both Thank you stamps are SU and the ‘Happy Birthday’ stamp is GinaK.
I loved this weekend’s WSC78 sketch hosted by Sharon at Paperfections; I missed the deadline, but decided to play anyways.
I used the scraps of my beloved Yellow Bicycle paper and created two thank you cards:
I’m loving the buttons lately; I’ve been envious of everyone using buttons over the past few weeks, so I decided to give it a whirl.
Then I used MojoMonday sketch 82 for my next two cards and used the paper from my $1.50 haul
I wasn’t paying attention when I stamped the “Happy Birthday” for this next card, so it’s slightly different
(sorry, the picture is a little blurry)
I took these pictures outside, we still have some daylight, and the sky has cleared from our torrential downpour that I had to drive through this morning. Mother Nature sure is fickle!
I know it’s TwilightTuesday (check it out at TwilightTuesday.com), but I’ll be making my TTIC card tomorrow, (and that special card with that specific punch--- hopefully, tomorrow I only have 5 hours on the road, but about 4.5 hours of paperwork…) I just don’t have it in me after 4 cards.
Happy Tuesday!
Ciao for now,
