Welcome to a brand new week!  Did you enjoy your weekend?  I thoroughly enjoyed mine - I got to sleep in both mornings and on Saturday afternoon my PIC, Lori, and our favorite torturer (AKA our trainer) got prettied up and drove up to the city to meet Lori's sister and friend for the Matt Nathanson, Train and Maroon 5 concert!!!!  It was an absolutely giggle-filled night with lots of screaming and yelling and shakin' it - and the concert was fabulous... Train absolutely knocked it out of the park!  Maroon 5 opened with "Moves Like Jagger" (which is my favorite song right now) and Matt Nathanson was a pleasant surprise to open the evening up - it ended up being almost 4 hours of entertainment...well worth the price we paid for tickets!

So, this morning I dropped the kids off at school, went over to the gym for some torture and then came home and sat down in my craft room determined to get a card or two done.  I *could* have done a card for one of my DTs but decided to do a *for fun* card.  I wanted to play along with the TCP Tuesday sketch so went off in search of a color combo and found this lovely one at the Color Throwdown:

I always love playing along with Alma and the Cat Pack over at TCP Tuesday and was totally challenged by this week's sketch:

I can't wait for the new TCP release - October 11 can't come fast enough!  Thanks for stopping by this afternoon - you can really tell it's fall here in Central Alberta... I could see my breath this morning when I took the dog out!  The leaves are starting to fall.... my favorite time of the year.  :)  See you later this week!
