{owl} brads

What?!  It’s Friday?  Seriously, I’ve been thinking it’s Thursday all morning!  Now I’m scrambling to get my grocery list written for this upcoming week, which just happens to include Thanksgiving!  The weeks have been flying by recently and since we only have four weeks in our house before the crating company comes… well, you can imagine the flurry around here!

We are leaving the day after Thanksgiving for one last trip to Spain.  We are all super excited, but it also means less time home for packing and preparing.  I’m blaming moving on my absentmindedness.  I’ll have to come up with some other excuse after December 27th.  Until then- that’s my story and I’m sticking to it!

I made another quick card for Embellish’s Color Brad Challenge.  At first I was totally intimidated by the colors, but thankfully Ashley let us use white.  Whew!  I NEED my white!  I did go out of my comfort zone and gave it a crushed curry base.  Aren’t you all SO proud of me?  Heehee!  My Mom sent me these owl brads that are completely awesome.  She knows how much I’m obsessed with the little feathered guys, and I was happy to have an excuse to use them.

Alright, I’m going to focus on my grocery list!  Happy Friday!

So glad I stopped by today, if not I’d have missed this yumminess! So fun, and sophisticated at the same time. That’s hard to come by and even harder to accomplish!

Julie- I think she found them at Archiver’s, but it’s been a while so I’m not sure they will still be there! Good luck!
