I rather trust my feet

Hi there blog friends!!!
I have something to say to you…
Call me sentimental (oh well, it’s nearly Christmas and all) but I want
to tell you how much I love you all! You made me so happy with your
sweet words and positive reactions on my new website and workshop!

Also a lot of you are so sweet to follow my “top 2000 project” and even play
along! (I’ve got two layouts from Michelle already… she blew me off my chair –
so be prepared for some eye candy in the next days!)

And here’s a layout for you! Not a music one (that starts tomorrow…)
but something I made last weekend. Some other posts got in the way
so I didn’t show it yet. It is for t.a.a.f.o.m.f.t. and the challenge was
“what is your favorite car?”

The other way around

I played just for fun the last days and – inspired by all your
“Christmas layouts” – I made a “winter layout”…
I didn’t look at challenges until I finished it, but I had the idea
there might be challenges around that fitted my layout…

So after my layout was done, I surfed all challenge blogs to see
what challenges my layout would match – HA!!
I found a few even!!!

At The Next step they played with cheese cloth

The theme over at The Three Muses was: “Fun and Games”

And… well I’ll be damn….
Lotus Paperie had a challenge fitting my layout!
I did visit their blog last Friday, but it wasn’t on my mind
anymore… somehow, there must still be vibes from Lotus
coming my way – “Use foam stamps”

It was funny to discover challenges that matched my layout!
It is “playing the other way around” and I loved it for a change!

Rhypophobic?

Yeah,
right,
WHAT???

Teehee…. the new Lotus Paperie challenge #135 just went on line,
and this week it’s all about finger paint!

When I saw the challenge, I went looking for the most difficult and confusing
(Latin) synonym for the word I had in mind to use as a title.
Just to tease you!
I giggled when I found it.
I imagined your faces would look like this when you read the title. 😕

Am I right?

Rhypophobia = “fear for dirt”
uhhhm, I found out later: fear for a very DIRTY dirt
I should have used “Automysophobia”
but the lay out was already made
Oh, well
never mind.
(…still giggling…)
