Oh, it's so sad to be the one to continually keep track of fellow SCSers. Unfortunately, it appears that has now become my responsibility. We all now my cards are nothing to write home about, and I trust with this new responsbility, I'll have less time to improve my skills!
Seeing this packaged item today reminded me, as if it was yesterday, of The Brat's Uncle's Demise:
Well, as it would happen, I detected Ms Brat (of all people) is spreading vicious untruths about what happened to her uncle ~ the one I supposedly rubbed out to retrieve my precious 6 carat diamond.
I was hellbent to retrieve what rightfully belonged to me, contrary to what the Brat is running around telling everyone this very day. No, it's not true. I didnt rub him out for his lousy six pack of warm Budweiser ~I'm a Heineken girl myself. I did him in because he stole from me.
Seeing myself as a Wanna B Detective #2 ~ after my mentor Debzi333~, I tracked that toothless &$#@^% no good uncle of hers right into the woods of the Idaho mountains ~Brat, does Idaho even have mountains. I thought the terrain was fairly level~ ... anyway, after Murphy O Ryan and I finally apprehended that lousy grey haired beer gut slouch, I realized I had to cover up my tracks, so to speak.
If you could have ever seen my man, you would never belief the likes of me would be with the likes of him, but, geez, he was kind while he was alive.
Brat, I did what I did: I cant undid what I did, but I can extend a peace offering: Let's call this whole situation a lesson learned: I've learned never to mess with your kin!
TFL!

How awful that some people would spread bad things about you Anne Ryan, I just don't get that kind of hobby. I suppose I'm just a "peace" lover at heart. I am not surprised that you would ask for peace, because that is the kind of lady you are. Just hope Brat accepts it. I've heard she is being called Sweet cards, because her cardmaking is pretty well kept in check, but I don't know who convinced her to change her ways.
Anywya, I do love your image and that wild paper, did you have that ring melted and sprayed all over this cardstock... Elegant, beautiful and yes, "to write home about, okay"

I don't know what makes you think your cards are nothing to write home about b/c that's a down right LIE! A LIE I tell ya. This one is exceptional w/ that mirror paper. Wowzers! Your embossed lady is fabulous too. What a great take on the inspiration. LOVE THIS!

Yep, Anne, you're always causing trouble I see - or, is it really everyone else that is causing it!! Maybe if you wouldn't drink so much you could have time to clean your kitchen you've been telling me about. I will say one thing, it has not affected your cardmaking ability - in fact, if you did this drunk, I say if it ain't a broken, don't a fix it!!! Great creativity in this card. The foiled ef b/g is GREAT and the sentiment with that image - priceless!!! You're a TOTAL delight and so much fun!!! TFS!
