Stampin’ Up! Glimmer Succulent and All Things Thanks!

Happy Monday, y’all.  When you read this, I’ll either be loading up to head to the airport, or laying on my bed in the fetal position, sucking my thumb and wailing….”I DON’T WANNA GO!!”  🙂

Cuz…I don’t wanna!  Finn doesn’t wanna me to, either!  Waaaa!

But.  It is what it is, yes?  And I’m sure once I get going, all will be well.  Right now, though, I’m working my way thru the pre-trip panics!

Enough about that!  Let’s look at my card for today.  I used the new Glimmer Paper – it’s hard for me to resist it, really!  And some Succulent Framelits and Succulent Garden DSP.  And the All Things Thanks for a couple of sentiments.  Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Happy Birthday with Color Me Irresistible and Timeless Elegance

Here’s a fact.  We love watching wrestling.  All sorts of wrestling.  Sumo.  Greco-Roman.  College.  Professional.  We especially love the pro wrestlers – with their graceful moves, skilled athleticism and flair for the dramatic.  We know that some folks think it’s fake, but we know the truth.  It’s completely real.  These guys are out for blood.  And we love.  Every.  Minute! 🙂

Wait.

What??

This is horse hockey.  Completely. Total baloney.  Which is why we were pretty surprised to receive an e-mail today from Comcast thanking us for purchasing WWE-something or other on Pay Per View.  I don’t even know what WWE stands for – I mean, I know that one or the other of the “W’s” must be for “Wrestling”, but that’s about it.  So, how (why?!?) would I have ordered it?  And – it appears that I ordered it ordered it 7 times.  In a row.  Every 2 minutes.  For a cool $12.95 per viewing.  Comcast was stumped.  Still is, apparently.  It’s a mystery (above and beyond the mystery of why anyone watches WWE in the first place – no flames, folks, if you watch WWE, it’s all good.  But – could you tell me what the other two letters stand for? 😉 ) and is likely to remain so.  But you can bet we’ll be keeping a CLOSE eye on the bill!!

All this excitement was taking place whilst I was building the card to share with you today.  I was working on my card and Wayne was on the phone for almost an hour.  He’s really good at dealing with the folks in customer service – he just doesn’t quit asking questions until he’s got every answer he wanted.  Me?  I usually take the first answer that sounds plausible and drive on!

My inspiration for the card came from the Freshly Made Sketches #197:

Stampin’ Up! Floral Wings lends Timeless Elegance to Birthday Wishes

Well, Monday’s rolled around again – it just keeps doing that, I suppose!  We spent the weekend trying to remain as OUT of the OUTside and as IN the INside (where the AC is!) as we could.  It’s just miserable here.  At least, it is for me.  I don’t do humidity so well anymore – I’ve never liked it much, but….these days it really knocks me back.

Part of our quest for AC was to go to a movie.  Have y’all seen Antman yet?  We saw it in 3-D IMAX and it was super fun!  Paul Rudd did a great job with the always-fun writing that you get in the Marvel movies.  I’m a pretty big Marvel-movie-geek, so….I’m easily impressed.  But, we enjoyed it a lot, and would give it 4 thumbs up!  And – we got to see the BIG screen trailer for the Star Wars movie coming out at Christmas!  Whooo-hooo!!!  Can’t hardly wait for that one to come out.

Anywho – on to the card for the day (the ACTUAL reason you stopped by!).  This is a pretty simple card, that combines two of the new Hostess Sets in the Annual Catalog – Floral Wings and Happy Birthday, Everyone.  And it features the new Timeless Elegance DSP.  Take a look-see:
