Photos and Valentine's Day prep work.
Mood:  a-ok

 

Been experimenting more with the matboard and the camera. Now I wish I'd bought a second package of board - I'd have loved some burgundy and brights. Too bad there wasn't another 40% off coupon in the paper today. I may look next week anyway. Long as I like the one I see on top, the rest is gravy ! To think, this is scrap board - what they cut out of a mat for framing. I think that makes me love it more. 

 

You can see the really pale green matboard on Elphie's photo album page.  A nice lady named Pam made me these gorgeous 'Ken and Barbie' silhouette pillows, of green velvet trimmed in black beads. They're fantastic. I'd love to have a set for me !  So I took a photo to thank her, with Elphie and Fiyero, and posted it to my site, too.

 

I'm hoping to sew a bit this afternoon. Tomorrow's a busy day. I have to get the dress I made Pam in the mail, and Dearest Son has school and appointments. We started Son's Valentine's Day cards - writing his name 25 times, and writing all his classmates' names is a lengthy process. So we're breaking it up by doing a few pieces a day. Of course, he was more interested in how many of the Cars cards he got to keep. For fun, I applied one of the included tattoos to him - he chose Tow Mater - and it looks so cute on him. 

 

Right now, though, I could just take the longest nap. It's one of those miserable cold, grey all day Sundays, perfect for snoozing. So if I'm gonna sew, I gotta get on it ! Not gonna be any time tomorrow, that's for certain.
