Another Two Challenges

Well it would appear that I'm on a roll here. But there's a reason for it. Besides the fact that we had snow today and I wasn't going out, I couldn't go out anyway because my car died on Saturday.

It's the ****** transmission. Just let me feel a little sorry for myself here - it's my last week home on medical leave and I don't have a car!!! Thank goodness I have good friends who are willing to cart me around and spend time with me. Otherwise, I think I would really be depressed and I've tried very hard these last seven weeks to avoid that.

So on Splitcoast today the Technique Challenge was to make a crimped envelope card holder and a card to go with it. I had flipped ahead to my INKredible color challenge for next week and liked those colors - Perfect Plum, Rose Red, More Mustard, and Old Olive. I also liked playing with the Itty Bitty Buds set so much the other day that I got that out again and went to work on this.

My son's girlfriend's b-day is next week and now I won't be running around last minute for a special card for her.
