Just Like Falling Snow

This morning when putting on socks I suddenly noticed something tan and foreign looking on the bottom of sock. Fearing the worst, I started hopping up and down on one leg. I have this newly gimpy knee that sometimes does not wish to straighten and other times does not wish to bend. I finally crashed onto the bed saving me the embarrassment of being tossed to the ground by an unruly knee. I managed to twist my leg around so I could get a good look at what was on the bottom of my sock: HAINES embroidered in gold.

Yep, I about killed myself over a logo.

And on that note, let's talk about snow covered Christmas cards, like the one below for Merry Monday. This was made with the freebies from one of those overseas crafting magazines and some Stampin' Up ribbon. This brings my card total up to 12 because I never finished last week's card but there is still hope as the parts are on my desk. It could happen, sometime before May even.

The Fine Print: But don't hold your breath.

This is some pretty falling snow, PJ! And I know you don't really like snow. But this kind isn't cold and doesn't have to be shoveled! BTW, glad you landed on the bed! It hurts to land on the floor.

So pretty. Love your lovely snowflakes. Thanks for joining us this week at Merry Monday.

Your sock story was too funny Judy. The other day I too started to walk in the kitchen with my socks on only to discover I had stepped on my newly made card with Nuvo Crystal drops on it and the entire card stuck to my sock. Love the holiday creation.

Hugs Diane

I know I'm late to the party, but oh my gawd, I cannot stop laughing at your sock logo story! LOL You're too funny :) That's such a pretty card with the 3 fishtail banners and colors! Hoping all is well with you these days as you haven't posted much. I hope you're taking a little "me" time and enjoying yourself :) Take care!!
