2 for the road

OK, wish me luck. I should be back next week sometime.

Here are the last 2 layouts I did as a mortal woman, LMAO. After tomorrow I'll be the bionic variety. Able to set off airport metal detectors in a single bound (although leaping over buildings would be a better skill I think.)

Goodbye 07, Welcome 08

Just wanted to say thank you to my friends who have made continuing this blog so enjoyable. I know I don't have a great following, LOL, but the few of you that do check in here from time to time are loyal, steadfast and true. What more could I ask of friends? I hope each of you find your fondest dreams achieved this coming year and it will go down as one of your best years ever.

edited: Here is another layout of mine recently posted at journaling junkie. It was a great challenge!!

First ride

Something a little different from me, I think. Really like it though, more randomly collagey than I've done before. It's a backwards hybrid LO. I sewed the circles to the fabric (not intending to do a LO, just playing on my sewing machine), loved it so much I brought it downstairs and just looked at it lots. (Do you do that?) Finally adhered it to cardstock as a "base", scanned it in and finished it up digitally. I like the softer, but not pastel, color.

Indy was SO HAPPY to get to ride a horse (her self-proclaimed very favorite thing in the whole world.) Then when the time came, so nervous. Sweetie said later, after it was all done, "it was weird mom, it was SO HOT outside (it was over 100) then when I got on the horse I was FREEZING and thought I needed to throw up or run away really fast." Too funny. I explained the concept of adrenaline and "fight or flight" but she insisted she wasn't nervous. LOL
