2 Sketches 4 You

Hi all! I'm really early this week with my 2 Sketches card!

This card came together so quick the other day, sometimes I get a burst of creativity, and sometimes I don't!!!

The base of this card is Colorbok paper that I covered with a transparent Hambley overlay - that's the swirly pink you see. Then I added Creative Imaginations and My Mind's Eye paper, with a My Mind's Eye journaling spot, Thickers, and a cute K & Co. rainbow. I have discovered during this card making journey I'm on that My Mind's Eye has my favorite paper, I tend to pick it a lot for my projects.

Well in other news, my black headed chicken is sick (she's featured in a previous post, in case you've not heard of her). Here's a picture of her, I cropped myself out because I looked terrible!!!

I think she's got a sprained foot. She puts no weight on the foot at all, so she's living in a little dog carrier right now to keep her calm and quiet. Tomorrow I'm going to try a warm Epsom salt soak for her little foot to take away some of the swelling - hope my Brother In Law doesn't mind me using his sink for a chicken spa!!! What he doesn't know won't hurt him!
I've got some exciting "scrappy" news to share later this week, but right now it's a secret! Stay tuned!

Love the card....sorry about the chicken. Sometimes they do get sore feet...I remember that from my childhood chicken days. Love the fact that you will use Tim's sink...not yours?!;)

Love, Love, Love the card!!! The outside lighting is great. Just wait till you get your light box. You have enough space to leave it out. I'm sorry about Ms. Black-Headed Chicken. I think she will recover. Papa said she could have cut her foot scratching on glass in the dirt. I don't like the fact that you worry so much about her. Sometimes it's best that we never know. That saying...what you don't know don't hurt you!!! Very true ( someone's sink)...That one might bother you.
Very excited about your news!!!
