thoughts..

FINALLY....finally my mojo is back and life has settled down enough to stamp again. My husband is home and reintegration has been...difficult. I guess the older your children are, the harder it is for things to get back to normal. Ugh..

Anyway, I am back and have been stamping all morning! Yay! Today, I have a card for this week's Colour Q! Here are the colors for this week:

Neat colors, huh? Orchid Opulence was always one of my favorite SU colors. I decided to use one of my new Market Street Stamps that arrived a little over a week ago. It's called Comforting Florals and I absolutely adore the image of this vase and flower combo. Here is my card:

I added Crystal Effects to mimic water...in person, it's really cool. Well, I better get back to the family. Thanks for stopping in!!

Jen Adcock said...: When I see your lovely creations, it is hard to think that you are ever sans mojo. This is so sweet. My favorite, oddly enough is the sophisticated yet understated texture from the IP on the aqua scallops. And those pom poms....gorgeous! Horray on the return of your husband. Happy days!; September 12, 2011 at 4:10 AM
