I wonder what grit that would be

Yesterday I didn't sit around for too long trying to decide what to do with my day. Wade's daughter and her family were coming over so that pretty much decided it for me. I had to get moving and get the house cleaned up. But now come Monday I have all the housework done so I can sit around doing nothing guilt free.-+

So who will be watching the Superbowl tonight? It will be on and Wade will be watching but I'm not much of a football fan so I'll be off doing other things.

I love Saturday.

I actually love any day that I don't have to listen to the alarm clock waking me up. There's something heavenly about waking up naturally unless of course it's in the middle of the night and then you can't fall back asleep. That's a whole other post though

What shall I do today? So many possibilities. Perhaps I'll sit in my pajamas for a while and contemplate my options.

While I'm deciding here are a few more index cards for you to look at. This will catch me up and tomorrow you'll be back to the current card.

Left was more playing in paint
Right was an aluminum foil background.

Left was more sewing on paper and then some stamping
Right just doodles then coloring with colored pencils

Peachy

Yep, I believe I had a peachy day yesterday but I'm not absolutely sure since it's all fuzzy. I suppose it could have been a ducky day because I did quack myself up a time or two.

Are you all done groaning yet? And Jerry enough of the booing and hissing :)

A week or so ago, I'm not exactly sure when since the days all blend together anymore, I happened to look out the back door. The lights were on the back of the doctors office behind us and I liked the shadows on the snow. Of course the picture is kind of crap because I took it with the cell phone but you get the idea

A couple more index cards to try and catch up a little bit. I realized after posting yesterday's picture that I had already shown one of those cards. Sorry about the repeat.

Not much to say about the card on the left. It was a combination of paint and ink. The one on the right I pulled out the sewing machine and did some sewing on paper. I stitched different pieces of paper together and then glued them to the card.

I'm back

At least I hope so. Hopefully this month will not bring any surprises like last month did. We did call the cable company and although their highest speed package is cheaper than what we are paying now, their installation fee is almost $300. Occasionally they send offers in the mail for free installation so if we make the switch to cable for our internet it will be then.

So what have I been doing while I've been gone? Not much and certainly not anything that's exciting to write about. I did a lot of laying on the couch watching tv and reading.

I've gotten way behind on showing you index cards so today I'll catch you up a little with three of them.

Starting at the far left, I had a lot of fun with paint on this one. I started by covering the card with book pages and bits and pieces of magazine pages then I covered it in paint. The little tiny squares you see were made using drywall tape as a stencil. The circles were made using various sized caps dipped in paint and the black lines were done with a comb.

The middle one I painted then added bit of paint here and there and ran a comb through it in different directions. It gave it a very nice distressed look.

The one on the right was inked just a week bit with some stencils then I added the butterfly and flower stickers.
