Thanksgiving weekend I went to stamp camp at Cheryl’s:

Just look at this bag – the colors, the snowflake, and as Cheryl would say, that dang penguin!  Just LOOK at him!

There.  Now you can really see him.  I had my contact in when I was coloring his scarf – looking at it this closely, I realize I should have put my glasses on.  I wear a single contact in one eye for reading – my left eye is my “reader” eye and my right eye is my “distance” eye.  It took a week or so, but amazingly enough my brain sorted it out and it works well – except for fine detail like coloring a little penguin scarf.  Then my brain says “whoa whoa whoa” and starts making the lines jump around like little drops of water in a hot frying pan.  Just in case you were wondering…

But what I really wanted to tell you was that it was absolutely luscious going someplace else and doing someone else’s projects.  I didn’t have to come up with ideas, order the supplies, and prep all the paper – I just showed up and stamped.  What a wonderful treat that was!
