It has been a long and very stressful two weeks but we are finally settled into a house here in San Antonio which will be our temporary residence until we find a place up in Lake Granbury and have closed on our house. It was horrible! We are just too old to be doing all this by ourselves. Wednesday last two truck show up at 9 am and finally unload the last of everything at the new place around 7 pm. Unfortunately we got tired and didn't realize that they had just unloaded all the heavy boxes that needed to go upstairs in the garage! Then Thursday we head out to the house to clean and get the cats. Get there and there's no water - city has it off for some reason. So we clean until around 12 - head back to catch the dish man here. Thats with a full truck load yet again (after 5-10 already) and with an entire storage room full before we even started! Then head back out - full load yet again - finally water and house is clean with an amazing amount of work even though I thought I was living in a clean house! Just move out to realize you aren't! Cats NONE too happy to join us ! Poor Tess has never lived anywhere else and didn't come out from behind the TV until my son came over and finally heard her squeek! BUT on a good note both seem to be happy to stay inside here which I'm glad of - don't want to find them run over so hoping to make them house cats until we get to where we are going.
Here to share with you my page for CSI this week. Used lots of Core'dinations on this - started with a black base which I sanded down to show through the core - then I stamped. Also added some Core Impressions in Basic Grey to show some texture. Love love love Em's sketches!
Thanks for stopping by!

So sorry the move has been hard :( I hate moving :(
ReplyDeleteI love love love the lo!! GORGEOUS colors!!!!!!!
Oh Debbie, I feel for you. I REALLY hate moving.
ReplyDeleteYour layout is absolutely amazing.
Moving is awful, isn't it? My gosh, I hurt just thinking about what you went through...
ReplyDeleteLOVE your layout! Wow, what stunning colors! The black background makes everything pop so much. And I adore your take on that sketch. Awesome!
Moving is such a pain. Just unpack the essentials so that you don't have to pack again!
ReplyDeleteYour layout is gorgeous! I especially love the round photos and the vibrant colours!
Take care!
Oh dear, that sounds like quite an ordeal. We have moved quite a few times but always had help doing it. (I know that nex time I'll have to do it myself,...) So glad you had some time to de-stress making this beautiful page. Love the way you combined and distressed the Coredinations. The lovely colours make everything 'pop'!
ReplyDeleteGreat interpretation of the sketch Debbie! Love the punch you have used to accentuate the V
ReplyDeleteYah so with you about doing a move on your own - never again I say! Well done I say, don't wear yourselves out in the process though. What a fab take on Em's sketch, absolutely wonderful! love the vibrant colours, perfect photos too! xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh Debbie! Sorry about the chaos of moving. I hope by now you are getting settled in nicely (the cats, too)! Love your layout, as I always do! :)
ReplyDeleteEish... I hear you on the too old to be doing this stuff again. My DH is talking about a BIG move and I don't know that I am up for it... what will be will be I suppose. Glad to hear you got it all sorted eventually... water and power cuts are the norm here and happen weekly :P Love this layout too but I have already told you that in the gallery :D <3
