 I hope you all had a relaxing holiday weekend--I know I did!  My mom came to visit and we had such a great time.  I didn't get any crafting done, but I did some GARDENING!  Now, those who know me will most likely think I'm telling lies, but really--I pulled weeds and my mom pretty much did the rest :-).  I was fortunate enough to begin my weekend with a trip to the Farmer's Market with Caroline and Elizabeth--locavores who were more than happy to bring this neophyte with them and show her the ropes.  We also made a trip to a local florist to buy some fresh herbs.  I thought I'd just plant them in pots on my deck but Steve had other ideas and fortunately my mom was here to help lead the project.  Oh, and did I mention do most of the work?  So, anyway I was happy to try and squeeze in a little crafting time today.  I only had 25 minutes to make a card and that left with me little room for creativity.  I decided to use Polka Dot Basics by PTI to make the background and then from there I went with something very similar to a card I've made before.  I CASE'd myself I guess you could say.   Hopefully, this evening I can take my time and make something more unique--we'll see how that works out for me.  For now, I must attend to my disaster of a house and take advantage of the fact that my DD is taking a nap :-)  Thanks for stopping by!
