hello...

What's a girl to say...I have been gone too long, but I'm here now. I would have been here much sooner, but my computer got sick and I was messing with those issue all of last week. You don't realize or rather I didn't realize how much of my life is tied to my computer. It's like I can't function. I do just about everything on my computer and to having no Internet is like the worst crime imaginable. I know I'm a tad bit dramatic, but that's the way I feel. Fortunately, I able to limp by for now until I can come up a better solution. OK...enough of that...back to your regularly scheduled program...

I was in the mood to do something clean and simple. I accomplished this by combining SCS Clean and Simple (CAS07) challenge and Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge #47. I don't have any SU CS, so I used what I had that was similar. Thanks for stopping by!

a lil' note...

It's finally the weekend and I can take a *sigh* of relief. It's been one of those kinda weeks for me and I am flat-out exhausted. I find craftin' to be a relaxing past time, so I thought I get my hands a lil' dirty and see what I could come up with. It's a cold and rainy day in Nashville which makes Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge fitting for the weather and my mood. I used last Saturday's Jen Del Muro's SFYTT layout. As you can see this card is not only simple in looks, but simple in creation. The sentiment and the lil' envelope was included on one stamp. I just inked the sentiment to add to the white layer. I just inked the envelope on some scrap white CS and cut them out.
