Actually, trying to find mojo and some pockets of time. We said a sad farewell last night to my brother and his son who were visiting from North Carolina for 2 weeks. We tried to pack in a lot of fun into their time here while taking turns at the hospital and with family who had come in to visit my father-in-law - who has been in the ICU for 3 weeks now. Fun day trips to beaches and boardwalks with the kids, all the while feeling the full impact of our very ill loved one. My brother's departure is usually a sad occasion, but this time it was extra sad. I can't help but wonder what will be different by the time we see him next.
I will not miss you July 2012 - you've been kicking my a$$!
I'll leave today with this simple card. I made it for a Tuesday Trigger a few weeks back but got sidetracked and never got to upload it. Need to get back on board with the Moxie Fab challenges and get back into a cardmaking groove.
materials: stamp: Stampin Up; sticker sentiment: SRM Stickers; cardstock: Bazzill; patterned paper: Pebbles, Inc.; brad: Making Memories; twine: The Twinery; circle cutting die: Spellbinders
