Well, we made it safely back from Chicago today, however our flight back wasn't painless. I had motion sickness the whole time, and to top it off, we were in the air an hour longer than we expected. We did have a fabulous trip. I'll post more about our trip in the coming days, but in the mean time here's one of my favorite pictures:Yes, that's us a Wrigley, and yes we are being rained on. But check out those seats! It was such a fun experience.
Since our flight got in midday I had time to participate in Dawn's color challenge:
My sister graduates from high school next week. My sister is 8 years younger than me, and I can NOT believe she is graduating. I remember explaining to her how old she would be when I would start middle school, and how old she would be when I graduated high school and finally collage. It seems we have passed all of those landmarks that at the time seemed so far way at the time.
Here's the card I came with:
Check out those fabric thickers! I think they are so fun. Of course I had to dye them with my ink pad to get them the right color. I also made the 'A' pink. My sister's name is Alison, so I thought that was a fun touch. I think my sister will love it.
I also have a cute pink butterfly that I just realized I didn't add before I photographed. So please pretend!
Here's what I used:
Stamps: Damask Designs
Ribbon: Ripe Artichoke Ribbon
Accesories: Fabric Thickers, Basic Grey Buttons

Oh, I LOVE it! Great grad card! I love the stamp set too! I made some graduation cards over the weekend and I went with colors that weren't our school colors! I liked doing something different, because our school colors are orange and black (so boring)! Glad ya'll had a great trip!
I love all the pink, especiall the A--nice touch!
Great idea for a grad card! I really like how you highlighted the "A"
Such a gorgeous card! I love the way you changed the color of the A. So clever! Your picture is so cute too! Awesome seats!
How stinking funny! You were in Chicago and flew home as we were flying home to Chicago. Glad you had a fun time at the Cubbies game. Love the grad card. I have a sister who is 7 years younger and I just can't believe when she grows up LOL! Way to go with this fabulous color combo.
It's a good life!
