What a weekend!
Busy with shopping....inventory...housework...church, and of course - some crafting. The dryer took a big dump yesterday - actually it's not the dryer, it's the vent something system and some HVAC dude has to come tomorrow to clean it out because clothes are taking like 9 cycles to dry - and that just can't be good. Tonight we're having dinner at my mother's - it *should* be good - she is making enchiladas: the one thing she used to know how to make GOOD.
But that was then and this is now, so, we'll see if it's as good as it used to be.




I made this card for the OCC - Sketch Challenge. And a challenge it was. This is the best one of the lot. I made a couple other versions and they came out, uh, overblinged - just not pretty...pretty gaudy actually.







And this thing here is a party favor for a birthday party. One of the many swaps I signed up for when I joined SCS. I got all excited and wanted to jump in and do everything - and now I'm sick of it - LOL Anyway, this is a CD case with some Ghirardelli chocolates in it and I decorated the outside.










Hope you're having a great Sunday - and staying warm.
It's bitter cold for us. I hate it when the sun is out and it's freezing - you're fooled in to thinking it's warmer than it is and you get out there and freeze your butt off.

I really like the purple card, so pretty!

Enjoy the enchiladas, hopefully they're still her specialty!
