Sweet Saturday

Posted on | July 31, 2010 | 4 Comments |

I’m not sure if I’ll get sick of it after awhile but right now I am loving the UK rain. It’s not violent like in Missouri — I don’t have to ask hubby every other minute if it’s tornadic outside — but just the usual soft sound of rain. It’s lovely and it actually reminds me of the time in Indonesia. I’m not a fan of heat and the rain always bring coolness. Also it’s so dusty where I was from and the rain calms those dust down a bit. On weekends I’d just sit around and read and that activity was my favorite thing to do back in those days.

Today it was lounge around day for us. We had friend over last night for dinner, our first time since we’ve been here, we went straight to bed after they left and today, after cleaning up we just watched movies and while I worked on some projects.

Here’s one I did today. Hubby got a new color printer so I was able to print out some digital paper from Sweet Shoppe. This particular one was printed of a Zoe Pearns kit: Alphabet Soup for Boys. I know it says for boys but I think this thing is perfect for anybody. Love the cute cute images!! I printed in draft mode for the pattern paper while the swirl was in normal mode and gave the pattern paper a more soft feeling while saving some ink.

I hope you’re enjoying your weekend!! We know we are!

Cute card! I do not like tornadic rains either, or tornadoes for that matter. And it especially freaks me out when our storm whistle goes off and the husband or kids don’t hear it!

I love love this one!! Reminds me of Keats’ “A thing of beauty is a joy forever…its loveliness increases, it will never pass into nothingness”…
Beautiful card! I am very very fond of flourishes and love them in any form! And these colorful flourishes sure do have me floored. :-)

Hugs,
Smita
