Hey there, peeps. Welcome to another Friends with Flair!! For a full list of participants, check out the Unity blog. As always, somebody's got that elusive blinkie. Find it, leave a comment, and you could win 25 random Unity stamps!
As I write this, we have entered the 36 hour countdown until we move all of our worldly possessions less than 10 miles up the road and off Fort Meade. We'll be picking up a 17 foot truck from Penske at 8am on Saturday morning. Yes, it would have been nearly 1/3 of the cost to go with U-haul, but those of you who know me well know just how little I and my family trust U-haul after that horrific wreck in 2003, which was due to metal failure in one of their trailers. If you ever get curious, you can check out the photos of the aftermath at my flickr stream.
So, I've been slowly packing up my card-making supplies in and around packing up other things. I've got one knitting project set aside, one book, and an important embroidery project. Those will remain within reach. Woe be to the child that packs my bag or hides it from me.
My card for today uses Unity's Bevy of Butterflies. I pulled colours from some of the patterned paper that came from the Caffinated Cropper kit Birds of a Feather. Considering my state of mind of late, it should probably say "embrace insanity", but I think this is close enough.Have a wonderful weekend. I'll be back next week, with real internet and a brand new home. I can hardly wait!!!!! Let's just hope I come back with my sanity at least somewhat intact.
