Yay me!

A good first day back, I'd say!

A few days ago, I had circles in my mind.  Then I saw Daisy Yellow's new workshop:  circles.  Then I noticed her Index Card A Day challenge.  So, I thought it appropriate that I start back with an index card of circles.  And I like how it turned out...



Then I hated the second one.  I used Portfolio 24 Water Soluble Oil Pastels, which clumped up quite a bit.  This picture was taken when it was still wet, but all it really did was soften up the edges.  Hmm, I'll have to play with the pastels more, but I'm really not fond of how they clump up... 



I went out with Iraida today, and it was nice to practice some English and Spanish...  Here's a card with a word that I learned today.



And I found a couple of old index cards.  I don't remember doing them, really, but it was nice surprising myself...



And we have some artsy-fartsy time scheduled for this weekend!  Yay!

SUMMER'S HERE!

Nothing to post, but summer IS here, and there is so much going on!  I need to come up with a plan to get back into the swing of things...  so much to do, and so little time.  I'm running around in circles like my head's been cut off, and really getting nothing at all done -- sound familiar?! So, I've gotta plan, gotta schedule, and gotta make it happen!...
