That kind of day

I’ve been dealing with interruptions in my internet connection for a week now and its getting old! A partially done post that I thought saved as draft posted on its own and a couple other errors that make my forehead meet keyboard. Those are mashed up with not wanting to get out of bed one wit! Tomorrow… SLEEPING IN! (maybe a nap today if I can convince dude) But I do have a project to share! This post has been started about 3 times (thanks DSL) so hopefully it works out!

I’ve been mildly obsessed with the color yellow. A couple years ago I would have said “least used color besides purple” but that is SO turned around! This paper pad by October Afternoon (Sidewalk) is only fueling my obsession with some great stuff! For you copic people out there, yellow can be tricky to shade because if you use black, its going to get a green cast to it. I typically shade with Y28 and browns. Its something I learned when I used to paint. Though the Ws don’t look bad 🙂 Experiment time!

For some reason I really wanted to roll some paper, not a clue why but I thought it would turn out really cute and it worked surprisinly well though its a hand out card rather than a mail out card! Otherwise be prepared for smooshage! I kind of did a portrait shot with Gwen for the image, Stamped with Memento on XPress It. 

Hair: E40, E41, E42, E43

DH is off tomorrow and I might just get my craft on Saturday as well! Besides a little house work (that I really should do today!) I can’t think of what else needs doing. I’m hoping to get all the To Dos done today! Its getting late though! Better get a move on!

    I loved this card since the moment I saw it for the first time, so I decided to scraplift it (http://mariaretales.blogspot.com/2012/01/pra-semanas-1-y-2.html)!!! I hope you like the way I did it!
