So, last night Michael came home from work with the mail, and I got the SWEETEST valentines surprise from my Fave Things Design Team friend Amy! I took a picture, but I can't share it yet, cuz I know she sent surprises to the other gals on the team too, and I don't want to ruin any surprises! But I do want to say THANK YOU AMY!!!! You are SO SWEET!!!!! As soon as I know everyone else got their surprises I will be sure to share my pic!
Speaking of Fave Things, today is the last day to get your layout in for the Fave Outfit challenge, and tomorrow is the new challenge! And also, there's a SPECIAL VALENTINE'S DAY POST RIGHT NOW WITH FIVE GIVEAWAYS!!!! Check it out here!
Last night we stayed up til 4:00 am, me working on my Let it Loose assignment, and Michael working on his computer project. Finally, Michael calls down to me in the scraproom - suggesting that perhaps it was time we go to bed. So I agree and proceed to close up the scraproom, come upstairs, make sure the cats have their dinner (they eat late just like us - ha), and head into the bathroom to get ready for bed. I flick on the bathroom light and almost fell over backwards! This was waiting for me...
Aren't they just the most beautiful flowers ever????? plus a beautiful card, chocolate bar, and this...
I was so SURPRISED and touched!!! I just have the BEST husband ever!!!! THANK YOU DARLIN - I LOVE YOU!!!The cats are thanking him too, because they LOVE flowers and balloons!!! LOL!!! They (especially Johnny) love to sniff the flowers! He will lay under them for hours, just gazing up lovingly at them - it's so cute! I will try to get a picture if I can! And the balloon! Oh how I wish I had my camera when they first saw it! They were fascinated to say the least!!!
So anyhoo, here's my Let it Loose assignment I was working on last night...
The idea was to paint a photograph with each color's complement to change up the feeling of the photo. I used a photo I'd taken in rural Minnesota on one of my recent work trips...
and turned it into this...
What fun it was to play with the colors! My favorite part was adding the details and journaling. Oh, and the white horse makes me feel like it's an image from a dream. The next assignment is tomorrow and I can hardly wait!!!The slideshow for All Star is up at Scrapping The Music! Head on over and check out the fun layouts! Everyone had a really good time with this week's song!!! And be sure to come back tonight around 8 pm for the new song! It's a special one for valentines day............
Now I'm off to finish up my Artful Amblings journal page. It's on the theme of "Hope." I'm looking forward to a day of playing!
Thank you soooo much for visiting my blog!!! Happy Valentines day my friends!
