Blah blah blah...

I'm house/cat sitting this week so I don't have my crafting stuff with me. I've been doing some coloring with my Copics, so it'll be nice to have some images already colored. I'm not sure which is worse...not having my crafting area or not having my hubby here lol. He's not far away but an hour each way adds up with gas prices going up and up and up. We text and talk on the phone, but I'm looking forward to seeing him tomorrow for the first time since Tuesday night.

I do have a card to share with you, though. This is an invitation I did for a friend's 40th birthday party:

I was stuck and had to put a call out to my stamping friends when my friend's wife said she wanted a "classy beer" invite. Thank goodness Sheila has an A Muse set with a beer mug in it! The card uses a couple of different embossing folders plus lots of layers. The black circle layer is popped up and the glass has Glossy Accents. There's a snappy little poem on the inside that I found online and adapted to this special occasion. I've never made so many of one card. Whew! It was a lot of Cuttlebugging and paper trimming. Plus it wasn't easy to find the right Copic colors for beer lol.

All in all, it's a card I was happy to make for my dear friend.

Hope you all had a good week and a wonderful weekend!
