I really, really wanted to participate in the January Block Party at Market Street Stamps, but it almost didn’t happen. This post will be going live as I’m getting ready to board a plane headed for New Mexico!! ACK!!
After a VERY rough day today (my boyfriend, Eddy, was in a car accident where he was rear-ended by a SEMI-TRUCK!!…thank God he is okay and the car was moving — it could’ve been so much worse) I only remembered about the Block Party this evening. My brain has been a teensy been fried.
Then I ran into all kinds of “technical issues” while making my card.
I can’t say it’s my very best card, but I just couldn’t start over. As I’m typing this it’s almost 1:00 am. And I have so much to do in the morning. I’m so darned tired.
There ARE lots of things I do like about the card, though. I used the Market Fresh Kit papers & ribbon (plus a little stash of my own), and I used Cool Cats and Pawprints on Our Hearts (both sets I want to use so much more!).
I hope you all like it.
Have a fabulous weekend and I’ll see everyone when I get back from New Mexico!
