A quick postlet today. I had the pleasure of spending the day yesterday with two of my besties shopping for, gasp, nothing to do with card making!! We each got some colorful new toggery and shoes and purses. It was so fun! We totally scored!
The hidden nonmonetary cost involved in such frivolity is that I have to clean out my closet. I've learned the hard way what happens to new clothes when you bring them home and just jam them in between Willy and Nilly in the closet. So that's my project for today and zokay because it's long overdue.
I had black and white card vibes still on my desk from my last post, so last night I made a card for this week's Fusion Card Challenge (Hypo #3):
Once again I fused the two challenges, which I think is a blast! (Oh, ha ha!) There don't seem to be as many of you playing this time. If you're quick you can still play along! If not, I hope you can make the next one!
Because I used a flower on my card, I'm also entering it into the current Addicted to CAS (ATCAS #11) challenge:
where they have this cool sponsor:
And here is my card:
For the flower, I used a heart punch to mimic the flower in the Fusion sketch. For the flower center, I took one of my "Starfruit" In Color SU! Dahlia embellies and colored it black using a marker.

Wait, where's the third one? The third one is this Cooper's Hawk.
Isn't he handsome and scary? Actually I don't know if it's a "he." There is a pair of them that have been regular visitors in our neighborhood maple trees. How do we know they're a "pair?" Let's just say we know. Between them and the majestic white kites you've met earlier, I'm having a hard time getting anything done around here. Okay, okay, the closet . . .

Enjoy your day! Please, seriously, enjoy your day. LITS*!
