Go IU

Tonight is the big football game with the University of Miami and Indiana University. I will be perched on the couch at six pm. ready to go. I hope it is a good game since both teams are so good.

My granddaughter's boyfriend came with her Saturday and he is our family's computer guru. He sorted out so many things for me and I can now load pictures from my phone into the computer. He was also able to load most of my stuff from the computer to the Ipad and showed me how to get it. That's not saying I'll remember everything he showed me but I can now facetime and show him the issue.

My card today is inspired by a card my friend, Loll, posted on December 17th. It took my breath away when I saw it. She also posted the video she saw by Pete Hughes. I used the same colors as she and Pete did for my moon.

A pun has not completely matured until it is full groan.




Be kind to one another.

I assume you will cheer for Indiana University. :-) Is so good to have an computer guru by the hand. I always wait with all my technical problems for children to come home. :-)
I like your card. Great colors combo and great design.
Have a nice day,
Sonja

Oh wow! This is a gorgeous card. I can see how it takes your breath away. I'm glad you have your computer issues solved. They are wonderful devices once you can figure them out. And as this is the morning after--Hoo Hoo Hoo Hoosiers. Great game for the win.

I came and I saw and I admired and I laughed and then I went away without leaving a comment! Slap! Something told me this fact as I opened my laptop this morning, so I am back to tell you that I saw, I admired, and I laughed! Thank you for all that. I'm so glad you got your IT guy to sort you out and all is tickety-boo now! Thanks for the links; I will check it out. Hugs, Darnell

Oh, such a beautiful card, Brenda! Love the silhouette and the lovely shade of purple! How wonderful that your granddaughter's boyfriend helped you with computer issues! And, I say we rooted for IU, too! A great game and so happy to see Mendoza do so well!!

I'm glad you have somewhat sorted your computer issues. We all need a computer guru in our lives! When we learn how to do something, they change it and it doesn't make sense. I'm glad you could get this beautiful card on your blog! What a fabulous technique and you used it beautifully!
