A word of thanks

First I would like to thank Hobby Lobby

for moving in practically next door to

me so I have no money left at the end of

the month.  It's all their fault.  Secondly, I 

would like to thank my new friend, Kat,

who is the ultimate enabler.    She posted 

a few cards she made recently and used

Tim Holtz's mixed media dies.  I've seen

them in Hobby Lobby but wasn't sure

how it would look on a card.  Well....

thanks to them moving here, I ran up

and got a set.  There's another set I 

would like, of course, but won't get them

right now because I'm so broke I can't

pay attention.  Anyway, here is the card

I made with one of the dies.  It's a set of 4.

I really like how it turned out, but I wish

I'd used a little darker portion of the

hombre cardstock to make the hello.

Another use of this same die for the inside

of the journal I showed yesterday:

I'm absolutely thrilled with how this turned out!

Now, before I go further, I must clean my desk

because I can't find the bottom of it to work

on.  I have so many projects going on at a

time because I am always wanting to try something

I've seen and haven't finished the project before.

I do finish them eventually, though.  

 

I need to work on my assignment for next

Monday's class, too.  it has some words

I'm not familiar with and can't seem to keep

the sign in my head for some reason.  

 

One more picture in closing:

 

You can't see her face super well,

but this is Bri dressed up as Hermoine 

for Harry Potter day.  Isn't she just

the cutest?  Oh, to be that young again.

At 16 I had already royally screwed up

my life and haven't figured out how to fix 

it yet, unfortunately.  At this point I

think it's just a little late.
