Together we can do ANYTHING!

I wasn't actually planning to blog today, but then I saw this post over at little lovelies, which linked to this post at The Scrap Shoppe about noreply-blogger comments... which is something that's been cropping up for me lately. Usually after I've typed out my response to a comment....and then realize that I can't send it! So have a quick peek and see if you're set up to be 'noreply' - that is, assuming of course that you haven't chosen that on purpose!

And now, for something pretty to look at:
Supplies: papers from Basic Grey "Out of Print;"
clip art & sentiment from Crafty Secrets;
pink pearls from dollar store
This was from months ago, and was lost in the crazy warren of photo folders on the computer. The strips of patterned paper were cut from a striped piece, and then cut to different lengths to stagger them. They're also only adhered in the centre, so that they could be curled up a little at each end for dimension. 

Now to get back to the card that has been driving me crazy for 3 days...I keep putting it aside & then taking it back out again. We'll see if I give up on it :)

xoxo,
Jessi

LOVE the strips behind the picture And it's such a cool picture too!
I hate the no reply thing too! I went into blogger and put my address in but I'm told my messages still come up as no reply. How do I fix that?

This is lovely! Super image and those "Out of Print" scraps are so cool like that! Hope your card turns out...I would love to get into my stuff tonight but I think I will be watching another Harry Potter vid with the kids tonight!
