Paper Players Challenge 85 and Freshly Made Sketch 25

 and





Hello again, blogger friends.  I decided to combine the two challenges into one today.  I used some old cool caribbean card stock and some new My Mind's Eye DSP. By  the time I finished, it was soft and pretty and my light in the craft room was almost gone.  I am going to have to work on my camera settings, but I'm out of time and want to meet the paper players challenge deadline.  Hopefully I'll be able to find a better place to take the pictures next week.

Good news from me:  I finally got a call to sub!  I quit my teaching job of 12 plus years when I got married in Oct. 2010.  We moved from Illinois to Indiana last Easter, so it's been awhile since I've been in the classroom.  Tomorrow I'll be in 4th grade.  I'm a little nervous about it, but I think it will be good to be working again.  Thanks for stopping by!
