They Call Me Mellow Yellow (Quite Rightly)

Well, yello!

I hope your week is going swell!

I am still walking around a bit beduffled adjusting to the time difference. I was up for 19 hours straight and then I slept for most of the next 19 hours. When I was awake, Hammy was shoving papers and sketching ideas as fast as I could work. He is atingle with creativity after resting on his laurels for over a week. (Reminds me, I need to get him new laurels to replace his worn-out ones.)

What got him started were the pretty yellow and gray colors at the Fusion Challenge, which we ended up missing! We've made a couple four cards and I'm splitting them up due to Blog Regulation 238 as it retains to over whelming.

Whelming, you know, is a tradition that started with the invention of the first wheel. To "whelm" was to pound and chisel your stone into a circular shape. When one of the wheel contestants was showing off and being a superachiever, making three wheels in the span of time that it usually took to make one wheel, he was considered to be "over" whelming.*

Thus, I will post only two cards today so as not to be an over whelmer. My cards are thank you cards.

The lovely NBUS floral die is from Memory Box, "Frangia Bouquet," and the NBUS stitched tag is from an MFT Dienamics set, "Stitched Tag STAX," both gifts from the lovely Mary H. I used SRM stickers for the sediments. QACAS!
