Crazy Quilt

Mornin' y'all!  Once again, I stayed up way too late last night reading a book (I will never learn my lesson on that score), and then Daphne got me up to go outside somewhere around 4am and I just kinda started the day a bit discombobulated.  But Ryan is at his engineering camp until 3:30 this afternoon so I'm going to take Daph out for a walk as soon as I write this and then go work on some projects in my craft room.  Maybe do laundry.

So here's today's card:


Which I made for this week's Atlantic Hearts sketch:


I didn't worry about following the sketch exactly, I just built my collage with the scraps I had on hand and I could probably do three or four more cards just with the Bright & Beautiful DSP Stack because I have a lot of scraps of it.  This was a great way to use up the littlest scraps too, and the long skinny strips.  I had my card front all done and then I had to figure out what greeting to put on it...well, what would go better with a crazy quilt type card than a quilt-related sentiment?  And believe it or not I have two different stamp sets with quilty sentiments, so for this card I chose Christmas Quilt and a flower from that set.

Okay, Daphne is more than ready for her tour of the neighborhood so I'm going to go take her.  She does make sure I get out to enjoy the beautiful Colorado weather almost every day whether I want to or not...okay we didn't go yesterday because it was raining, but almost every day we go!  Cheers!
