My "Energy" card

I'm embarrassed to say that this card took me 2 minutes to make. You can probably tell, right? LOL Again, I used a tag off of a new pair of pants. I originally planned to use this for a BOM challenge, but it was perfect for the word this week. TFL! :-)

I wish...

There are lots of things that came to mind when I thought "I wish I could..."

I wish I could sew. Yes, I realize this would add another thing to my job description, but how cool would it be to have a useful thing and say "I made this!"

I wish I could cook. Well, I CAN cook, I wouldn't starve, but I would like to LOVE to cook and make fabulous creations like my hubby. He just has this natural talent for mixing ingredients and coming out with yumminess!

I wish I could quilt. I love quilts. Again, no sewing talent whatsoever, nor the patience to see a huge project through to the end, but I would love the end product.

I wish I understood HTML. Then I could make my blog all fancy. And probably a lot of other useful stuff too, not the least of which is wooing people with my technical knowledge. LOL

I wish I could take better photos. After 9 months of taking photos daily, I've decided that my lack of good photos is decidedly my camera's fault. If I had one of those cool SLR cameras, I would be motivated to learn to take better photos.

I think that my new years resolution next year will be to make one of my wishes come true. Can you guess which one it will be? :-D

My "Discover" card

I had pulled the tag from a pair of new jeans and knew I wanted to use it somehow. For the base paper, I crumpled a piece of Bazzill and used distress ink over it and the edges. I ran the ribbon through my printer and printed up this Mark Twain quote. Lastly, I inked the flower and stuck a brad through it. Overall I like it, but I think it's because blue and brown together is my new fav color combo. TFL! :-)
