Hello! Have a Beautiful Day!

Greetings!

I hope you've made it over the hump with no need for a tow truck this week. Some areas are getting lots of snow and ice, so mayhaps it was necessary. Be careful out there. We are fine, but we have been getting a staggering amount of rain, which the poor sod cannot handle, so hugs and prayers for all who have been flooded. 

I've made you a sunny card to brighten the doldrums! Doesn't that sound like a word I've made up? It snot. It is a colloquial expression for a state of inactivity or stagnation. A word derived from "a belt of calm and light baffling winds north of the equator between the northern and southern trade winds in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans." 

Baffling? I normally use that word to mean confuzzling and forget that it also means a light wind that frequently shifts from one point to another. Sort of like your mother's cousin's brother who never could hold down a job.

Hmmm, granny's off the rails again.

All that when all I meant to do was say, "Hello!"

My cards today were made partially at the Lake House with borrowed products. I didn't succumb to purchasing those wonky stitched dies when they first appeared because I thought all these stitched dies were just getting out of control. But then I borrowed someone's at the Lake House and came home and ordered the set! They really are so wonkily wonderful. I'm sorry to say that the image and the sediment were also borrowed so I don't have the make and model information, but if you want to know, contact me and I will happily find out the information for you. I did use my Ziggies for the coloring.

Edited to add (thanks, Bev): The flowers are from Studio Calico, the sediments are from WPlus9, and the wonky stitches are from My Favorite Things.

Challenges

• AAA Cards: Hello.
• Can You CASE It?: Colors.

Here's another example of the same card, with a different sediment:

I love how the wonky font fits the wonky stitching.

And that's all we have time for today, kids. I will leave you with this brilliant cartoon which I found on Facebook and which seems to be an appropopo way to finish this post considering the way in which it started!

Enjoy your day! No, seriously, enjoy! LITS!*
