Panic...

Okay, I now actually have TWO jobs! Started a full-time job on Monday this week for the next three weeks, and after that for two days a week while I do the other job three days a week (you still with me? ;o)) So I'm actually employed full-time and when I thought about that...I panicked... Not because I'm work-shy, don't get me wrong, I love being useful again! But because I needed to make some birthday cards and realised I just wouldn't have the time (or the energy) during the week. So I sat down and made these two cards really quickly, and then the panic subsided ;o)

This one is for the Friday Sketchers challenge, not sure if it's a current one but I'll go take a look and enter if it is, I love this sketch :D!

And this one, made with one of the new Gorjuss girls (now available from Funky Kits) is for the Sugar Bowl challenge, another lovely sketch :D!

List of Ingredients:
Penny Black and Sugar Nellie stamps, Papertrey Ink sentiment, Daisy Bucket papers, Stamping Bella baubles, Prima flowers, brads, spacers, buttons, scrapper's floss

I'm off to lay on the sofa and (probably) fall asleep, I'm that tired. Hey, I practically did nothing for four months, a little tiredness is allowed right? ;o) Thank you for stopping by, have a grrrrreat week!

Hugs,
Erica
