I've become one of those people that LIVES for weekends. Even though when the weekend finally gets here (like now!) it just means I have a TON of laundry and housekeeping and "catching up" to do (but with my current "condition" I can at least sneak in a nap here and there between loads of laundry and whatnot *wink*).
Also it's becoming the only time I have to stamp and get crafty. After a full day of work I don't have the energy (or creativity) to make things after - but that's also been due to the lack of sunlight here during the winter. It's still winter outside here in SK (we don't even hope for spring 'till the end of March at the earliest - double blah!) but it's been staying lighter outside for longer each day and that makes SUCH a huge difference.
**OH and before I forget (I meant to announce this yesterday but ran out of time) - All That Scraps is now a Member Company at Splitcoast! If you're not at all familiar with splitcoaststampers.com head on over there. It's FREE to set up a profile and you'll have access to the forums and gallery and tutorials etc etc etc. I've been a member for years now (I've even got a couple tutorials on there that were published years ago). I haven't been all that active on the forums for some time but now that ATS has their own forum on there I plan on popping in from time to time to "chat".
You can find the ATS forum HERE <------click! It *just* went live yesterday so it will take a while to get some conversations going!! :)**
OK now for the card without a video.
I made this card last year for my oldest daughter's birthday (you can see the one I made for her this year HERE). Obviously I enjoy using The Greeting Farm stamps for my kids cards :).
I can't for the life of me remember what patterned paper pack this is from - I'm sure if I dug through my stash I'd find it but I'm 99% sure it's not available anymore anyway (though when I say that I usually get proven wrong LOL!).
Again I colored her as a redhead - my oldest girl's hair isn't *really* that red - hers is more of a really pretty deep strawberry blond now - it's hard to explain and looks different all the time.
*side note - last year during parent-teacher interviews her teacher informed me that one of the boys in her class had THE biggest crush on her and went on and on during *his* interview about V's "beautiful red hair". It was hilarious (as it always is when they're little - give it a couple more years and I'll prolly SEE red any time a boy starts batting eyes at my girls LOL!!!).*
ANYWHO - back to the card:
The sentiments were from my Magical Wishes stamp set. Rather fitting ;)
