This is my card for today's Inspiration Challenge. The inspiration piece was a beautiful gift box. This is my story.
1. This card is the second in a series of cards with no name. I can't think of a name...when that happens it gets thrown into the No Name Series.
2. I am having a little trouble today coming up with a story. I can't concentrate.
3. Our computer is in a room facing a large window looking out accross the street. The neighbor accross the street thinks because it's 6:00 am, no one is around/awake. That she's safe from being observed doing a little yard maintenance.
4. In her nightie bending over pulling weeds. I'll leave it to your imagination.
5. I'll give you a hint....my husband did not pull out the binnoculars, he just ran away!

I LOVE your card, and your story has me cracking up. But then again, I went out at 5 this morning and did a little yard work in my jammies. BUT, they are very modest and I was in the fenced backyard most of the time. LOL Thanks for sharing your lovely card and your funny story. Keep 'em coming.

Wow!!! I'm not sure which is worse your half naked neighbor, or me waking up to a cat 'gift' on our deck! Ugh!! Perhaps your hubby should've given a little wolf whistle, and a wiggle of the eyebrows, or maybe that would've encouraged her!!! Hehehe!!! I hope you at least had your coffee to help you deal!!
Anyhoo, your card is stunning!!! I'm particularly fond of the Foam Snowflake thingy!!! I LOVE thingys!!!! OK, seriously now, your card is really quite magnificent!! It looks almost frosty!! I love it!!
