I can’t believe it’s the end of May already. So much is happening in my life right now, and I know I’ve been pretty quiet in blogland. I’m still around, and checking out blogs in my reader when I get a free moment. My “baby boy” leaves next week for the Army, and it’s finally hitting me. The longest I have been away from him is maybe a week – so I’m taking this one pretty hard. I am so proud of him though, he is such a wonderful, caring, and intelligent young man with a big heart and a lot of charisma.
So… with that said, here is my final card with the Critter Crew. I myself will be doing some traveling for work very soon, and so I will be taking off a couple months from blogging and card-making. I hope to be back by October (my favorite card making month – I love Halloween!)
I want to say thanks to Jess and Marie at TGF for having me on the Critter Crew – it’s been such a joy working with the rest of the Crew and with Marina’s images and I have loved every minute of it!!
The challenge this week is an inspiration challenge and a fun one at that. I didn’t have the picture in front of me when I made the card, otherwise I think I would’ve used more pink and less blue. Oh well… I’m still liking how it turned out. For a change, I colored with my Prisma Pencils and OMS instead of Copics {gasp} and used non-white cardstock to color on. I added a little bumble bee sticker. This reminds me of when my youngest son was like 2 years old and in day care. The ladies would call him the “beekeeper” because he would be outside and he would just stand there and let those big fat bumble bees land on him then sit and watch them. freaked me out!!! But he never got stung.
Hope everyone has an amazing Memorial Day weekend!! God Bless our troops, past and present. It because of your sacrifices that I am free.
Hugs,
Jami
