I am sorta kinda feeling sorry for myself this weekend. My birthday is Monday and I always make a big deal out of my birthday. I'm not the kinda girl who goes out and parties a lot, but I always go out with my hubby and friends on my birthday weekend, and we par-tay. I always do stuff with my sister, whose birthday is 3 days after mine (one year later) and we have always just called it "our birthdays". I always go shopping with my friend Linda, and she always takes me to lunch. My mom always makes me a chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and chocolate ice cream because one time, I made a joke about how could ANYTHING that's chocolate with chocolate and MORE chocolate not be the BEST birthday dessert ever?
*sigh*
So yeah, kinda feeling sorry for myself. I think a girl deserves to do that every now and then. I'll be OK, though. I did talk to my mom today, who was super sweet and made me feel better. Then my sister called me while hanging out with a mutual friend, and they made me giggle for a good 15 minutes. So you know, life goes on. I'll be OK.
So it's Saturday and I have our reminder post at:
I used Mermaids Love Bubbles from A Day for Daisies above, cropped her close and crooked and mounted the whole thing onto an ATC. I colored with Stickles, Prismacolor pencils, and mineral spirits.
For my next ATC, I used Me Time Anya from The Greeting Farm, stamped onto glossy white cardstock that I had colored with alcohol inks and colored with Prismacolor markers:
Come see what the other girls came up with and join us at WW ATC Challenge! Peace.
Fabulous ATC's Jenn...love the ADFD mermaid and all the blues.
ReplyDeleteI hope you cheer up soon! Maybe you need a big slice of double chocolate cake with a Partini to break your doldrums?!!
:Dxx
Your ATCs are super cute! I love the touch of bling. I hope you have a happy birthday!
ReplyDeleteGlad it turned out well! I hear ya though- we moved a few months before my 40th. I've never had a big bday hoohah and never really wanted one but we did go all out a few months before for another friend's 40th and I was kinda looking forward to an evening of fun with the girls. Instead, I spent it in front of my laptop, looking at CKC classes, in a dark hotel room as my hubby and munchkin slept while we were on our normal Memorial Day vacay. *sigh* I hear ya.
