I Know, I Know ...

... it's NOT Spring!! I made this card for CC292 (Pink Pirouette, Real Red, Pear Pizzazz) over on SCS ... and although the colors were screaming "Christmas", I just couldn't bring myself to go there yet (and my BFF Cheryl is already starting on a countdown 'til Christmas ... 11 WEEKS!! Aaack!!) Smiley from millan.netBut, I digress ...

I am SOOOO not ready to go there (although I have to admit that I actually bought my first official Christmas gifts last night ... YIKES!). So, that is why this card looks so Spring-y. I kinda stumped myself on the Pear Pizzazz panel ... couldn't find a ribbon that looked right. Glad I was talking to my good friend Deb on the phone while I was creating. She is the one that suggested trying a little sewing (not like my sewing machine was already all set up and sitting about 12 inches from me or anything!!). Thanks, girl ...

Well, believe it or not we are headed out of town for the Happiest Place on Earth today. Yes, I DO mean Disneyland!! I SOOO love it there!! There are going to be SEVEN of us in a minivan all the way to Anaheim!! (Three adults and four teens.). I can't WAIT!! It truly is one of my most FAVE places on the planet! I will take some pix and share a few with ya ...

  2. I like your card, Wendy! In fact, I love all your cards! I have been spending the last couple of weeks looking through your archives (I'm the visitor from Nes, in Holland), spending my free time admiring your creations! Your style is what I am going for (I'm quite new in the stamping game). I look forward to all of your future blogs!
