Whew, what a week it's been! I went to the eye doctor on Weds and found out I get to get bifocals, yeah me LOL I've never worn glasses before so this will be a change for me! On Weds I also had to take my husband to get a rental car....on his way home Tues night a young moose jumped out in front of him and he hit it. The moose and our Ford Escape did not survive the collision, although thankfully my husband is just fine! Hubby did come home with a new car tonight but I'll share that in a few more days :)
Believe it or not but the insurance co totaled the car! She was a good car, lots of great memories the last 8 yrs. RIP!
Moose hair stuck in the front end and the windshield :( We're thankful hubby didn't have any of the kids as passengers when he hit the moose. There are glass fragments all over the inside of the car.
A great thing about Friday is the Friday Mashup! The challenge now runs for 2 weeks so there is plenty of time to Mash it Up....heck, play along with us several times if you can! This week at The Friday Mashup we have a color challenge, plus we want you to use any shimmer based item on your project...it would be Wink of Stella, Shimmer Paint, watercolors, etc. Unfortunately the only Wink of Stella I have right now is a bright red, my clear ran out, so I did not mash it up this week :(
On my card I used the top 2 colors and then the 4th color....I translated them into the SU colors Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo and Blushing Bride.
My card base is Blushing Bride and on that I used one of the stamps from the SU Gorgeous Grunge set and stamped it in Blushing Bride across the base. I used a circle from the MFT Zig Zag Stitched set and stamped the "Hello" in Bermuda Bay and the "friend" in Melon Mambo. I created the banners with some retired SU DSP.
Make sure you head over to The Friday Mashup blog to see what the rest of the DT created and then play along with us!
