Going for a Swim

Happy Friday, y'all!  I got 99% of my Thanksgiving shopping done yesterday so now I just need to write out my game plan of what gets made each day next week.  Today I'll be cleaning up the downstairs of the house since my parents get here tomorrow, and we have a contractor coming to do demolition on our shower (yes, you read that right, we *still* only have one functional shower).  So no use cleaning upstairs today with dust flying everywhere.

Anyway, I got an awesome suite of stuff last time online exclusives were released and I'm just now getting around to playing with some otters:


I couldn't resist fussy cutting these otters out of the Otterly Adorable DSP when I saw this sketch from CAS Colours & Sketches:


The Balmy Blue watery pattern is the reverse side of the otters I cut out.  I stamped the sentiment in Pretty Peacock, which I wouldn't put with Balmy Blue on my own, but they're both colors in the DSP and I actually like how it looks.  Had to add a few Pretty Peacock Foiled Gems to balance the design.

Okay, time to get Ryan off to school for the last day before he gets the ENTIRE WEEK off next week.  Man, when I was a kid, we only got Thursday and Friday.  Well, Ryan, Daphne, and the grandparents can entertain each other while I cook, ha!  Cheers, y'all!

I am so tempted to pick up this suite Christy - I have it in my basket as I type and I think this card might have just tipped me over the edge - so cute!! Perfect for the CC&S sketch too!
