It's been such a wonderful week I feel like I've wanted to spend less and less time on the computer and more enjoying my family and the outdoors....we have had such GORGEOUS weather and it's just been such a fun few days. Even mindless errands have turned into wonderful car rides, holding hands, jamming to the radio w/ the wind blowing in my hair...I just love it.
Don't worry though, I have QUITE a few things up my sleeve for you in the coming weeks. In fact, I will be SO busy posting TGF and Unity I hope y'all don't get sick of me! For now, I'll keep it short and sweet and I bring you DDSC32, this week's challenge at the Diedrich Dare:
I am not a huge fan of black cardstock...no particular reason, I just use dark brown as my "go-to" most of the time. So this was definitely a challenge for me, but when I found Jen Del Muro's Sketch for you to Try from this past week, the card came easy-peasy! I love Basic Grey Origins paper and when I looked at those colors I thought, Voila!
Isn't this quote from the "WHERE YOU SHOULD BE" Set by Ippity just wonderful? I love this set, and actually have an IPPITY SALE this week!
