I'm nothing if not efficient!!!
It's really Tuesday night, August 20th.
You should be reading this on Saturday the 24th, if all goes well!
We will be on our way to the beautiful Butchart Gardens sometime today; to wander around, smell the roses, & stay for the fireworks!!!
I made a 'guy' card before I left.
Sorry the picture is so crappy..........I took like 10!
I was kinda inspired over here...he's baaaaaaaack!!!
A while ago I bought some lovely background stamps;
could I get them to stamp cleanly......nooooooooooooo!
I even purchased the big a$$ acrylic block & everything!
Then I remembered reading about inking up your stamp then laying it down, putting your cardstock on top, and using your brayer........perfect!
I KNOW that's a game spinner on the clock on the bottom, it's all I had!!!
I also bought a new toy when I was in Grande Prairie!
My quilter gf has been smirking cause I wanted a sewing machine;
but not to REALLY SEW!!
The second night at the casino, she came in for her shift & says,
"I found you a sewing machine at Target, I even took a picture!"
Next day I was at Target..........exactly what I wanted!
Of course it works, and I'll be playing when I come home!
And yes it sits on my desk!
I also purchased that lazy susan type storage thingy on the left at Michaels!
For 50% off!
I love it!
It emptied 4 cans of stuff off my desk.
My remotes for the TV & DVD player are in there too!
It even has little drawers!
I can fit a ton more stuff in there!!
Well that's it for now!
Hope you're all well!
Talk to ya later!
Ta ta for now!

Oh, what a beautiful card! And so nice to see cards other than Christmas cards (says the Christmas card maniac...). Butchart Gardens really looks like a place I need to go see - one of those days, the pictures they have online are gorgeous. Enjoy your little (or not so little?) vacation!!
Like your guy card, especially the spinner. Hope you are having a great time away.
Glad to hear you are out having fun and getting some traveling done. Been quiet around here but needed to pop in to say "HELLOOOOOOOOOO". Card is pretty awesome and that's a great tip. I would never have thought to use a brayer. "Hugs" Carol
