Fall...tis the season!

I'm a clutz. I bump into things and trip all the time. Last spring I fell (while walking) and severly sprained my ankle. I've been so happy because it's finally healed, and I've been able to wear all my cute shoes.

I also believe in karma. Do something nice and something nice will happen to you. Be a stinker and expect some stink in return.

so......my mom stopped the other night for a visit. She wanted to try out my new nail polishes (OPI's Birthday Babe & Private Jet). Being the sweet daughter I am, I relentlessly teased her about her feet and how 'weird-looking' they were. Less than 12 hours later, I dropped my full aluminum water bottle on my toe as I was leaving for school. OWWWW!!! Guess who probably broke her toe?! So now I'm sporting some lovely tape around my bruised & swollen toe.....serves me right :(

I thought it would be appropriate to make a fall card. I just love this dp from the DCWV Doodlin' Around stack. Just paired it with some simple stickers from American Crafts.

Hope you're enjoying the first few days of Autumn (let's ban the season's other name for now) and spreading some good karma in the world :)

I hope you toe is okay! I am quite the klutz myself and once broke a couple of toes by dropping a # 10 size food service cans on my foot!

Your card is beautiful!
