Swooning Anya

Hi everyone!  It’s just about Friday!  🙂  

We have our first swim meet this weekend.  It’s actually Time Trials so it’s really a “kind of” meet, but we’re excited to see how well the kids do (ours and their friends).  This is our daughter’s first time on the team so we’re super excited to see her swim.  I’m not too excited to be at the pool by 6:30 a.m. though.  But who knows.  If our woodpecker is doing his usual pecking on the gutter, we might be up even earlier than necessary.  (Insert expletives.)

Here is another of The Greeting Farm’s latest (I think) Anya images, Rain, Snow, Shine

You Warm My Heart

I added a few little cross-stitches here and there and used a clear gel pen on her sunglasses so they’re nice and shiny. 

Once I had taken the photo of this card, I decided the red ribbon was too thin in comparison to the card size so I added the wider lace underneath.  Unfortunately, I had stitched the button to the patterned paper so I cut the lace down the middle and glued each half just under the ribbon’s edges.  (Creative altering.)

I have one more image from this trio yet to be inked…Snow.   Soon…. soon. 🙂

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a great day!
