Evacuate?! I just got here...

Well, I made it to Savannah just in time for Hanna! I have not unpacked my car for fear I will be evacuated the minute I unload my craft supplies. Not so sure renting a place at the beach was a good idea. Hopefully, I will be able to enjoy it after Hanna and Ike and Josephine pass through the area...

Where oh where has Sally gone?

She is in Savannah, GA. New job and living in the La Quinta. Amazing how much effort it takes to pack, store and relocate. All of my lovely paper craft supplies are packed in boxes and I am missing them. I hope to have a small collection of tools and paper available in September. Of course, I am now in a city with Michael's, Joann's, AC Moore and local scrap stores. I may purchase as much as I already own before I unpack my boxes.

Once I get "situated" in my temporary apartment, I will start posting regularly. I did not get a chance to remind you to check out the latest cards on My Sketch World. So, go by and have a look. We are taking the month of September off, so look for sneak peeks and updates in October. I am off to work. Have a great day!

Sparkle and Shine!

What a great day! My A/C is out, but it is raining, so I am not totally dying. Plus, I love the rain! My dogs are not so happy. My newest card is an experiment in digi-hybrid card making, acetate and stamps.

The base is acetate folded using my Scor-Pal. On the inside back, I adhered a solid piece of sparkle silver paper slightly smaller than the acetate. My inside front is a digital clear frame with glitter accents, layered with digital fireworks. On the outside front, I attached Happy 4th stamped in chalk ink on a small squared with rounded corners and edged in chalk ink. Finally, I used clear firework stickers attached to acetate as layered embellishments. Ta da!

Photographing acetate is hard, so I am not sure this picture does it justice, but you get the picture. Pun intended, hee, hee.

Off to my stamp club meeting. I'll say it again, what a great day!
