Owl Be Your Friend

Hi Everyone,

Just a little while ago, Amber Ink hit a big milestone...1 year in business!  Woo-Hoo! I was so excited to participate in the big hop with all of the past and present Torchbearers, and even more excited when I won a couple of prizes along the way.

So, I made my picks, printed them out and got right down to it. 

See?

This is from their Wild Animals with Heart line...I think they were released around Valentine's Day, but for some reason, owls always seem autumn-ish to me. I think the word is autumnal, but then I sound like Martha Stewart.  She's the only one I really hear say that word ;) Is it because I associate them with Halloween, or being wise, for like back to school stuff? Hmmm...Whatever, it's good to remind friends that you love them, anytime of year :)  The papers are from my stash, but Amber Ink has great iPapers too.  Stay tuned for future projects with that portion of my winnings. 

And the webbing down the middle of my card is from Hambo Stamps.  They are doing a big sell off, so I got it for a steal.  Not sure if there is any left, but you can check that out at the store here.

That's all I really have to say.  I'm looking forward to my sister in law and family coming back from vacation.  My mother in law and I have been taking care of their cat.  Which is sick.  Which hasn't been eating. Which needs meds twice a day.  Which also needs insulin shots twice a day. Which is fed up with us.  Sigh.  I'm just happy he's still alive.  Friday can't come soon enough!
