art journal challenge - week 10

here we are again gals! week 10 - so cool!

i won't bore you with my woes but i have been sick and pathetic for a month now, and i am really ready to feel completely better and take one the world! (more importantly, tackle my 'to do' list...). my downfall in getting better (apart from not being able to take any decent drugs and the fact that i live on the side of a smoggy freeway) is that i NEVER REST...a quality i undoubtedly inherited from my stubborn ol' dad. so this week, i am going to set aside much needed 'rest time', take a few naps, meditate...and hope that it will be my miracle cure!

so, do you need to tell or remind yourself of something this week?

our prompt is: 'note to self' - write a little note to yourself, whatever that may be!

paper is from paper source, stamp is 7 gypsies, flower made from layers of felt and fabric - i just wanted to make it for fun (that is what an art journal is for!).

have a great week :)

Dear Ems
Here are quite a few of your challenges I have done recently, a lot of them relate to my pregnancy, and so I had to wait until we announced it before I posted them, here they are:

#6 LOVE LOVE LOVE… http://rebeccageach.blogspot.com/2007/03/eajc-week-6.html

#7 SHOES, I just happened to be sorting through a box of baby clothes/items... and this is what I came up with: http://rebeccageach.blogspot.com/2007/03/eajc-week-6.html

#8 I MISS Breastfeeding… this card is my favourite so far, I just love my little angel’s hand and how tiny she is… cluck cluck cluck. My new pregnancy is making me totally clucky *grin* and reminiscent. {if you cant tell!!} http://rebeccageach.blogspot.com/2007/03/eajc-8-i-miss.html

# 9 INSPIRATION FOUND… everywhere and with Ali Edwards. http://rebeccageach.blogspot.com/2007/03/eajc-9-inspiration-found.html

#10 NOTE TO SELF… I wish I didn’t compare so much of this pregnancy to my experience with Mikaela…

OK girls, don't faint when you hear this...I actually FINISHED MY CARD BEFORE SUNDAY! For those of you still standing and able to click on the link to check my card out...here it is

http://smurfypercysblog.blogspot.com/

It is a bit of a "dark" card but it fits my emotions lately as well as the topic & emotions of my note to myself. I hope you like it anyway.

Em, I hope you are feeling better and that you, Miguel & family are having a great weekend. I know your post sure gave me a good laugh for the day. HEHE.

Take Care & Happy Creating,
Amy
