I'm confused

Anytime there is a holiday I'm completely out of sync the rest of the week. I didn't post yesterday because I thought it was Tuesday. Duh. Plus, I fell off the wagon so hard it's a wonder I didn't get run over. I've been more careful lately about what I eat but when I was out I stopped at the donut shop and bought not one, but four donuts! Ouch. It's been so long since I had one that I don't feel guilty.

This is the card I made to play in casmixup this month. It is watercolor (not something I'm good at) and things with wings. I watercolored a sort of square and added wings cut in sparkle paper with a Whimsy die. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp.

My stomach is flat. The L is silent. Probably due to donuts. 







Be kind to one another.

Your words of wisdom are hilarious and I'm glad you treated yourself to the donuts! Sometimes it just makes you feel better to indulge! Four is way better than buying a dozen, so forget the guilt! LOL Great wings on that water-colored red panel for a striking Christmas card!

I wish I could have been with you, Brenda. I could use a donut...or four. Love the sparkly wings! They look fantastic against the watercolor background! Love seeing this in the CAS Mix Up gallery!

Holidays get me all befuddled too Brenda! Hard enough to keep up with the days of the week, but then throw that holiday in and it's all over for me. lol I'm glad you enjoyed some donuts, doesn't hurt to have some once in a while and now you have me hungry for them! Your card is so cool Brenda! I'm not good with watercolor either, sigh. But I love how you did yours and those wings are so pretty, especially in the glitter! Love the joke, will have to try and remember this one. lol Hugs, Brenda

Eek! I'm so far behind, but I'm glad I'm backing up so I can read your dry and hysterical jokes! This one actually took two readings. It's early here, but when I got it, I laughed right out loud! My stomach is flat, too! I love your take on the CAS watercolor/wings challenge, Brenda! The best wings EVER! Hugs, Darnell
