Thinking of you

This card didn't come out exactly as

I envisioned it, but I like it nonetheless.

Is that even a word?  Well, my computer

didn't flag it so I guess it is.

I love my distress inks!  And I'm so

glad that I went ahead and got this script

stamp.  I stamped it with versa mark (a wet

ink that you emboss with) and then embossed

it with clear powder.  Once that was cool

I inked it with several colours of distress ink

then rubbed a paper towel over the piece

to remove the ink from the script.  Remember

when we used to do that with crayons

in elementary school?  Voila!  Resist.  I love

how it looks.  The sentiment is popped

on the piece although it's kind of hard

to tell.

Yesterday I noticed that the garage looked

a little dark and sure enough the light

was out.  So I went to take the bulb

out and it broke off.  This morning, after

making sure with my brother in law that

the house wouldn't explode if I turned some

breakers off (hey, I've never done this stuff

before!!) I got it out easy peasy which 

was surprising since I thought it was going

to give me a hard time.  For some stupid

reason, the previous owners never put

any sidewalk or stepping stones to the

front door and although we talked about

it, we never got around to it either.  The

garage door is right in front of the driveway

so we just use that.  The only people who

come to the front door are people selling

something so I know I don't want to talk

to them.  To be polite I open the door

and tell them through the glass that I

don't want to talk to them.  I mean, it's

only right.  I don't want people to think

I've been brought up in a barn, after all!
