Who You Really Are

 Well, it's a sunny day here, not a good day at all for starting report card comments!! LOL  I've made a to do list today and finishing this card for Stacey's Curtain Call Colour Challenge was on it :)  I had started making a different card last night, but it just didn't finish the way I wanted it to.  I had paper all over the place mixing and matching and going crazy...lol.  Then I saw my Wild Card card from last week and loved the layout so much that I decided that was a good place to restart.  Hmm, black and brown on a card can be tricky...here's what I did...brown stitching, brown embossed circle on doily and brown button; black polka dotted paper, black ink on sentiment, black and white bakers twine in the button.  Definitely a bold card, not for the faint of heart!! LOL  Okay, I'm off to start those report comments :)  I'm also in charge of staff meeting treats for tomorrow...hehe...homemade ginger sparkle cookies and Costco trail mix :D  YUM!!  Thanks so much for visiting....smiles!!
