Are We There Yet???
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Saturday was kind of rainy here, but Sunday we had beautiful weather! Emileigh had her friends sleep over in the tent on Saturday night and they had an absolute blast. First they played Guitar Hero and Singstar on the Playstation 3 here in the livingroom. Al barbecued hot dogs and we had chips, pop and yummy chocolate cake (from the store....I worked all day on Saturday, remember?).
They had the new tent set up like a sheik's tent filled with three sleeping bags, nine blankets and 4 pillows!! It was so cool, I almost wanted to sleep in there.....almost. Al ran them out an extension cord from the house (like 12 feet away) and they had Emileigh's portable DVD player and a small heater, if they needed it. They had glow sticks and a flashlight and of course, they brought out food! So fun!
Yesterday, Al and I took a looooooooong drive (2 and a half hours to be exact) to Niagara Falls and spent the afternoon walking around the Niagara Gorge. We did a LOT of climbing and hiking and I think I did pretty well, considering that I'm completely and totally out of shape!! We took some awesome pictures by the water and on the rocks and in the foliage. By the time we got out, I was sweaty and dirty and freakin' tired!! Let's just say my poor little body is in shock this morning!!
Anyhoo, on to today's card!! I'm totally getting excited for the first week in July! Several of my design teams have new releases coming up, so I'm working my little fingers to the bone!! I just got a peek at the new High Hopes images and I'm beyond giddy and I promise, you will be too!! Maybe I'll give you some little previews later this week, would you like that??
So I pulled out an older HH image that I haven't played with before called Are We There Yet?, which funnily enough, reminds me of hiking yesterday, because I kept saying the same thing to my husband!!
The base is a Chocolate Chip square, with Really Rust, Brocade Blue and Certainly Celery for accents and the dp strip is by We R Memorymakers. I used Copics to colour the image, added Prima flowers with an SU brad and added the sentiment at the bottom.
Okay, I've got the whole day off today and lots to do, so I'd better go grab a coffee and get to it!!! Hope you have a wonderful Monday!!!

So cute Kim...I love High Hopes and I can't wait for the new release. I will peek in on your hints. I wonder if there will be as many as the Jungle theme. I only have three more to buy from that collection LOL> Love em, love em, love em. Love what you do with them.
