It's 4:03 and I can't sleep...

Image
...without you next to me I toss and turn like the sea If I drown tonight, bring me back to life Breathe your breath in me The only thing that I still believe in is you If you only knew And so this card.... seemed to go with the song of the day... Sizzix die cut then rubbed on sentiment.. you have to see this paper up close.. lovely! And, now, unofficially.. the start of the weekend.. I LOVE FRIDAYS!

the heavens open every time she smiles

And when I come to her that's where I belong... kinda goes with the card, I thought.... can you read the sentiment? So, this one took a little while longer than yesterday's card, but was still fairly easy. and, it is almost the weekend.. so excited... not because it's my birthday or anything but because I get some time to chill in my hammock, ride motorcycles with friends... R E L A X!

It's a love story...baby just say yes!

Image
Yes, I know the song is actually called "Love Story" but I call them what I wake up singing... and that what what I was smiling about this morning... :-) Hey, did y'all know Taylor Swift is a woman? I had no idea who sang this until I went looking for the video.. every time I heard the name I pictured the dude from American Idol. Can you tell how much TV I DON'T watch? Anyways, this card was made using a DTP (direct to paper) inking technique and an overstamp in pastel pink as well as a clear vellum sticker in the center... easy! And, in another line of thinking.,. the world needs YOUR resounding and unconditional "Yes".. .think about it... and then go do what you are called to in the world. Blessings!

I’m so tied up

Damn Yankees... and I mean the band, not those people north of us :-) I will post the lyrics rather than just hte link (above) since it is too early for anything else & I have been singing this particular song in my head since 5:47am.. yawn. Where is my coffee??? "Comin' of Age" (Tommy Shaw, Jack Blades, Ted Nugent) Dressed to kill and lookin’ dynomite, with her high-laced stockings and her sweater so tight. I asked her her name, she said her name was "Maybe." Well she walked up to me, and she asked me to chance I said, "I am lookin’ for some wild romance," She gave me a wink--she said I should think about it, maybe She said, "What you got babe, is what I need. Your kind of love got me on my knees." I’m so tied up What you got got a hold on me, your kind of love make a man outta me I’m so tied up, you got me so fired up Little sister, hits the stage She can’t help it, she’s comin’ of age Little junior, he’s all in a rage Did you notice ...

seen on town lake...

This is what you see on town lake in austin if you are afoot instead of jogging on by or speeding past on your bicycle..

Been a long time coming....

Okay, so if you clicked on the link above, you'll see the song is by "Sick Puppies". Lewt me remind you I am not responsible for the jukebox that lives in my head. There is no "OFF" button. Altho, if you see card's message... they do sorta go together? This card was fun... DSP cut to fit card front, a clear acrylic sticker in coordinating colors and then a japanese hole punch (because you can punch a hole ANYWHERE with one of those) used to lace a belt around the dressform. Another AWESOME weekend... spent it watching people do Aikido and test for black belts... wow, they sweat! So much for a passive martial art form. That looked like work to me! And now, time to uncover my Harley and go to work :-)

Time may change me...

Image
But I can't trace time... I said that time may change me...But I can't trace time. Here is a card I made that my cell phone wont do justice to. Sigh. That reminds me, have 2 more to take picture of with my REAL camera.. LOL. Started my 1st kefir colony this weekend and will be enjoying a smoothie this morning as a result of that endevour. Also started a kombucha tea last night. Wait and see... wait and see.
