Hello Crafters!
How are you all this morning? I'm doing fairly well. My husband though, not so much. He sent me a text this morning that said, and I quote "Our son is trying to kill me slowly through sleep deprivation."
I admit it, I laughed. You can too.
Nathan has been terrible with sleeping lately. I don't know if it's a growth spurt or what but it's miserable. He is has been sleeping for a few hours then waking up screaming for anywhere from an hour to two and then going back to sleep.
This stage sucks. Hopefully it doesn't last long. Like it ends yesterday :)
It's my turn over on the A2ZScrapbooking blog today and I created a card set. I also shared all my "Oops" "Oh that's ugly" "Um, what?!" "Why? Just Why?!" flowers that I colored along the way. Why you ask? Often people compliment on my use of color. AND often they say they wish they could do that. WE crafters often forget that we only share the best of our projects not the worst. It's a process for all of us and no one is more talented than anyone else. It's just different :) If you'd like to see them please head over to the blog and have a good laugh!
Here's the cards. They are all one layer masking and copic coloring.
I do really love them. That one layer. Steals my heart.
Thanks for visiting!
XoXo
