I ordered some new goodies and they came in the mail yesterday. I ordered the Swiss Dots Cuttlebug folder - I have been eyeing this for months and not been able to find it locally, I finally got it at Cut @ Home. That little $4.99 cheap thing was incredibly elusive. Along with that I got the flower Nesties. Plan on seeing these elements a lot in the near future until the novelty wears off - ha.
This card is incredibly cute in person - though I had a heck of a time photographing it and I'm not sure why. Don't you love those dots with the polka dots and the flower? I sure do! Oh and have you noticed I've been rounding my edges lately too? I bought the border rounding punch a while back at Target - but was looking at it and thought it was going to make a design and that I had bought the wrong thing. I tried it on a whim the other day and it worked - exactly what I wanted and thought it would do; I felt so retarded.
And this card I was so afraid of what the final product would look like "and can I just tell you how much I love the way it turned out?" I'm going to the Dawn McVey school of putting colors together that you never would have thought of - she always seems to make it work. I like this style a lot better than the total matchy-matchy.
Saved the best for last here - pictures of my son at his Valentine's party yesterday (1st grade). Can you see that he's missing his 2 front teeth? How cute is that? Man did that chocolate cupcake look good! Obviously I didn't dress him yesterday or he would have had on red - although red clashes with his red hair; I don't know, but blue camo would not have been my choice for the Valentine's party!
It's Friday, Girls - woop woop!
BUT - I'm sick :(
I am 99% sure I have strep again. Going to call in sick and go see the Doc. I am skeered though because I get strep A LOT and I think he mentioned if I got it again he'd have to take my tonsils out - noooooo.
But YOU enjoy YOUR day! ;)
And I hope your Friday the 13th is better than mine!

The flowers are sooo cute too. :) very great work!
Polka dots are so cute, and so are your cards.
D looks adorable as usual, but I gotta agree about the camo. I'm sure you'll make up for it tom.
Good luck w/the sore throat. Hope it's not strep.
