Wishing You Love & Laughter

Well, it's a dreary day in Houston. It's going to be gray all day long with drizzles through out the day. LOL, hubby wouldn't let me forget that at one time, I forgot the word drizzle ar sprinkling, and I used the word "droplets" to describe the rain. Now, whenever it sprinkling, hubby would joke and said oh, it just droplets. :)

What can I say, English is my second language. Every now and then, I do forget words. Or, sometime I switch language in the middle of a sentence without realizing it. My clue would be when hubby has this look on his face like "I-have-no-idea-what-you-just said" or when he replied in a made up words.

There I went drifting all over the place with my post. Back to earth. With the gray looking weather, I have this card inspired by Moxie Fab "Gray is the new black", that I sure hope can brighten anyone's day. Really loving the doily a lot lately.


I stamped the music note to the middle of the doily only and rubbed the outer part of it with chalk. The butterfly was stamped with old scriptures.  I forgot to take pic of the inside. I finished the inside by stamping music note on the bottom part and added a small butterfly.

As I promised last week, I'll do a giveaway  to celebrate my blog followers. 201! Thank you all. I will post the giveaway detail later this afternoon or the latest tomorrow morning. Hope your week start off in a great way!

English is my second language too but I was young when I learnt it. But I still make mistakes sometimes and my hubby enjoys teasing me! It's funny how long there memory runs! Sweet card, I like the music only in the middle and chalk wouldn't rip as easily good idea!

A beautiful card! Love the stamping in the middle of the doily!
English is my second language as well and I make mistakes enough, but luckily hubby isn't english either so he can't tease me too much ;-) But I hear you about starting a sentence in english and then switching, or in my case chatting away to a friend without realising until I catch the look on her face that says "What the heck are you saying?" *lol* I think it's rather funny and I just tell them to learn some languages to keep up with me ;-)
Love, Alex
