I Can't Wait Until Tomorrow

I am absolutely exhausted! I've had so much on my plate at school, and I can barely get anything done when I get home. My job has me working with students from K - 12, so juggling all of the different tasks can be really draining at times. I've gone to workout a few nights hoping that would pump up my energy, but no such luck! I even worked on a few cards for challenges. After really hating them, I scraped them and the idea of participating in the challenges. But....tomorrow is Friday. I'll have the whole weekend to catch up on some rest - I'm really looking forward to stopping by and visiting all of my blog buddies...I've missed you guys!!

I figured I'd share this card with you tonight. I made it for the most recent PaperCrafts magazine call. I don't know what happened, but I didn't realize there was a submission call until the night before the deadline. I typically know for a week or two (even if I don't get to it until the last minute). My goal this year was to submit a handful of cards for each submission....I'm thinking that one doesn't count for a handfull. oh well, one is all it takes - just not this one! That's okay; I really like it, and I have a few ideas of who I could send it to :)

I love the combination of leaves stamped in Versamark and Fresh Snow on the kraft in the background. This is definitely something I will be doing more often with my cards. I was also really pleased that I made a card with purple that I really liked. The combo of lavendar moon, smokey shadow, and kraft is really pretty!

okay...I'm off for the night! Take care :)
