Supplies: patterned paper & buttons from Basic Grey "Oxford;" stamp from Studio G; Palette Noir ink; banner die from My Favorite Things; googly eyes |
Supplies: all from Jenny :) |
I also have a couple of pictures...but let me clarify, it turns out that Rob and I are not great photographers. Why this was so difficult I don't know - but these are the best pictures out of several DOZEN. Huh.
I got a lot of compliments on my hair this morning...which, after the 9th or 10th, I realized that what people were probably noticing was not my month-old blonde hair but the new glasses, and not realizing it. Whichever, compliments are always a lovely thing to hear :) Love them - I think they're very *me.* (I should remind myself of that ten years from now when I look at them....)

ReplyDeleteLOVE the new glasses!! Huzzah!! They look very modern and chic. That's so funny that the compliments you received were about your hair!! But you are right--folks were noticing something different, new, and fantastic about you and couldn't quite place it. OK, Beautiful, go shine!!
Whoop whoop for your new glasses! They're awesome! Love the fun pattern on them.

And when I said I was a bit pink I really meant a bit SCARLETT!!
Hi Jessi - your cards are great! I love the twill ribbon. Great work. Thanks for joining us this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches.
ReplyDeleteHi Jessi, Your cards are wonderful. I especially love that hot air balloon - it reminds me of a cozy quilt with the beautiful patterned papers. The tree stamp on the second one is stunning and works so well with the neutral palette. Love your new glasses too!! They are really fun.
