Hubby and I went to see the Star Wars in Concert tour last night. It was awesome! Anthony Daniels, C3PO himself, narrated while clips of the movies were shown on a huge screen behind the orchestra. There were also actors dressed as stormtroopers, Vader, Boba Fett and the like roaming around the venue...you could take pictures with them! If you are at all a Star Wars fan or love a great philarmonic orchestra, I highly recommend!
Leonard isn't a huge Star Wars geek like I am, but he did enjoy the music. I am thankful he felt well enough to go...but, he has decided to forego our trip to New Orleans. We originally intended to leave this morning and have the weekend together, then while I went to my business meetings he would explore. Now, I'm holding off a couple of days before leaving...and will miss him terribly while I'm there. We were so looking forward to it!
I will be using the additional time to work on my swaps for Stampin' Up!'s convention tho...and I need it! I didn't sign up for a ton, but enough that I should have already been seriously working on completing them!
The cards in the picture below were both cased...very close cases in fact! That's what's great about this hobby, people love to share what they create. As a Stampin' Up! demo, I have access to Stampin' Connection, a forum for demos only...it has a great gallery where if you're totally suffering a crafters block you can find some beautiful cards to recreate. That's what I did here for my May card class. I don't recall who posted these...at the time, I just left them up on my screen and created away as I was in a time crunch! I love the colors of the first one, and all that layering is fun. The simplicity of the second one is really great while creating - I think - a stunning card.
Anyway...enjoy!
Thanks for stopping by!
Don't forget my retired stamp sets special~
