Hi everyone! Well, my week/weekend remained “interesting” – not necessarily in a good way LOL. On Friday, my main computer started acting up – shutting down automatically for no apparent reason. By Saturday, we couldn’t even keep the computer on for 5 minutes at a time, so it is now at the “dr.” aka Best Buy. So, I haven’t been on as much because my hubby and I are now sharing my laptop, plus all files are on the main computer so I am scrambling to try and re-find things or having to find other ways around stuff. Hoping to have main computer back by end of week, but will depend on what the problem is and how long it takes to fix it.
To add to my "amusing” life’s happenings, our driveway is being redone and they started today. In the morning, my husband swore that they were only doing the tear up of the sidewalks today and that I didn’t have to move my vehicle to the street, so I left it in the garage. Then in early afternoon, when I went to go to the grocery, I realized there was no more driveway behind my van! So, an hr. and a half later, after the poor guys had to construct a makeshift driveway out of the concrete scraps they had removed from the driveway, I got out to go to the grocery. So, another crazy day in my life (which is actually usually pretty mundane and ordinary!!)
Well, that brings me to my inspiration for today, which you can find at INKY IMPRESSIONS INSPIRATION BLOG. I have made my own designer paper using tissue paper and a few other supplies. Hope you will visit the blog to find out how I made this.

I love the shape of the sentiment's backing -- a die, I presume? It makes the sentiment work well vertically.

This is a precious card. Love the colors and your coloring of the image. Beautiful background!
Bwahahahahahhahaha...LOL! Audrey, that story had me rolling. Not the computer part, that's completely irritating, but the missing driveway...Hahahahha...too funny. I would have loved seeing those guys "build" an exit path for you. Too funny! Maybe not at the time, but it sure made a hysterical post. :D
LOOVE your homemade designer paper and the card is adorable! Hope you get your 'puter soon.
