We had BIG thunderstorms during the night last night - I had high hopes of finding beautiful green grass this morning... okay, the neighbors' lawns look pretty green! ha!
Tracey's colors over at Color Hues #82 gave me the chance to get all the green I'd hoped for in paper form... here are the shades of turquoise and green I used on my card.
I found the perfect GREEN cover panel in my snippets - it was even better after running
it through my machine with an irregularly inked-up Timeworn Type embossing folder
from Stampin' Up.
Today IS a perfect day to be happy - I'm heading to the airport soon to pick up my friend - she and I have never met! Good thing we exchanged photos, right? Hey! Maybe we'll make second helpings together?
