Monday Monday....

This is a card that I created to give to my boss tomorrow, which is her last day. I bought her a bunch of chocolate, coffee {she is a choco-coffee-holic} and a plain white mug....I love what I've been seeing people doing with their rub-ons...that's why I bought the mug. I thought that one of the various new Target $ spot tins that I recently picked up would house everything but no luck chuck. I'll have to pick up something different. I bought a pair of fiskars 'cloud' scissors, that's what I used on the chocolate chip strip...hmmm....I like the slit punch look better BUT the scissors are so much easier to use :)
-------------------------------
stamps: stampin'up tiny talk paper: stampin' up wild wasabi & chocolate chip, basic grey mellow ink: versafine vintage sepia accessories: word window punch, prima flowers, bling, M $ ribbon, fiskars cloud scissors and the janome.
-------------------------------

I mentioned yesterday that I have a 'black thumb'....it doesn't mean that I don't love flowers, I do. I just take better care of cut flowers vs plants {lol}. Check out my Camillia bush...it finally bloomed! I moved into my place during the spring of 2006 and it had not bloomed since, well, last week? I happened to notice it yesterday when I looked out the window...We have had some wild weather...Saturday was absolutely gorgeous but it went 'back to normal' yesterday :)

This is so pretty! We have a teeny tiny little camellia that was planted two years ago...and like yours, it just recently bloomed (I think it's the same color too!)

How can it go from 80 on Saturday to snowing on Monday? geez!!!
