LOVE My card....like totally LOVE IT















sometimes when i make stuff, i am so so in my like or dislike of it. this card...had not reason. not intended for anyone...not pressure on creating it. So i totally took my time. I used my favorite colors....chocolate, twilight from CTMH. I used some chalk inks in similar shades and added a barn red like color to go with sorbet. I used cottage floral stamp set, flourish stamp set also. I just love how the buttons, brads (which i cut the bottoms off to lay flat)...and ribbon all came together.

ok...enough...here it is:

allright.....

i lost a lot of lists & stuff when i changed my html on the design of my blog, @@. and the bronco one (sorry Mel) was just too much. so here is a brown one for fall...i'll change my header later. phew...what a pain! i wonder if you can save the lists before you change background so you don't have to resave?

i live with 2 dorks. one my hubby, one my brother. to entertain themselves in the dreary downpour (which is getting a little old!)...they are playing wii sports. golf. fine....but they are replaying over & over the same damn hole till the get a hole in one. now brian got one...so they have to finish the round of golf...at least they stopped replaying the same hole! and they are using MY WII character..so i guess i'll be a better golfer now eh?

early riser...

it started on sunday, brian & I both were wide awake @ 5 AM...who does that on a sunday? or any day unless they have to?

so we went on a walk...just him & i...around the lakes, and then the golf course. brian wanted to look for lost balls. found 11! nice! we went for about 1 hr 20 mins. saw the sun rise, amazing...more amazing than a sunset & Those are damn spectacular in co! then saw hot air balloons! my dream & emma's is to go on one for our bdays

it really started my day out well...to be honest, i am lazy..id rather watch a movie or scrapbook than do any physicall exertion!

so...today...tuesday...6 am...here comes brian "wanna go walk"....yep! rolled my butt out of bed & went walking. same thing..about an hour today, nice & chilly am..fall is on it's way here!! so by 7 am...walked an hour...then came home showered, entered in my ctmh orders....and kids are still asleep! LOVELY! I might even go scrapbook a little before they awake!


to do's today....well, anything will be nicer than yesterday (although I enjoyed my evening with the scrapbook ladies) ....i have to go to the landfill & donate a bunch of paint..and go to the pool! we have one week left...so we have to take full advantage..and then I need a nap i am sure!!
