We had a great weekend. We went to the city, had a very yummy lunch at an Indian restaurant, Korma Sutra in Overland Park, and also stopped at Archivers which was just a few (huge) blocks away from the restaurant.

It was nice going there, found a few items, but a bit disappointed because I couldn’t find anything unique. They just have more of what’s at the other craft stores or a scrapbook store closer to where I live. Of course I bought a few items, some more pretty papers, and alphas but really, I could have gotten those without going to Archivers.

Then we went to Science City. It’s a children’s science/museum type of place. Emma had a great time although the first 30 minutes were not the best. M’s a big shady about new places but once she familiarized herself with the place, she was happy and excited about trying out the different activities. That was our Saturday and after dinner we just watched a movie while I scrapbooked.

Today, I was suppose to play volley ball but I left my workout shoes at work and I couldn’t get in my building. It was funny, last week, a colleague of mine said, “Hey Savitri, do you know that your name’s (and my coworker’s) on the key control’s list?” I said no and I thought that they were just keys to the lab (in another building) for the database class. Ha! Now I know!!! Nobody ever told me, or my supervisor, that we needed new keys. I know her name was on the list too and she was clueless when I told her. So I watched hubby and these other people play. I’ll play next week — I just have to remember to take my shoes home.

Here’s a card that I did. The paper is Tinkering Ink which came with my Studio Calico March kit. It was leftover from the page that I did (which I’ll show you later). If you’re a regular visitor to my site, the card design is exactly the same as my “You’re Invited” card. I used my Nestabilitie sets for the scallop and the blue and white card stock. The ribbon, instead of cutting a seperate piece for the tie, I wrapped the ribbon around the white piece of paper and then did the tie. Isn’t it amazing how colors effect the feel of something? I’m not sure who I’ll give this to. I just wanted to make a card. I was going to do Beate’s sketch but got distracted. Ok, have a great one!
