Tap Tap Tap

So, my day started out kinda meh and turned way into ARGH!! Life with teenagers. Um, long (long, long) story short: My son “lost” his backpack. We drove all over town revisiting everywhere he’d been all afternoon, trudged through the woods twice–after dark–and it eventually dawned on him that he really hadn’t lost his backpack, but he’d left it at his friend’s house–half a block away. ARGH!! That’s an hour and a half of my life I’ll never get back.


Oh, and then when I got home around 8:30, my darling daughter was waiting for me to help her with her homework. Really? You have TWO parents. ARGH!!!


So, my crafting time didn’t start until like 10:00. Fortunately, this week’s Paper Craft Crew Challenge blog has an awesome sketch to spur on my creativity.

Next, I grabbed a piece of Confetti Celebration DSP which set my color scheme: Basic Gray, Pistachio Pudding, Strawberry Slush. With all the elements on this sketch, I decided it needed a simple, but edgy image and the “Tap Tap Tap” set filled that bill nicely. I think this card turned out pretty well for a “rush job”!!
