operation 14: LOOKING FORWARD

wouldja believe...for a second week in a row...i made my paper adventure page ON THE TUESDAY??! yeah, me neither! i mean, who'd've thunk it?! but it's true. of course, this week's assignment was pretty easy. see, elise said:

"Think, this week, about something that you are looking forward to in April."

since we're going to asheville in a few weeks, it's not to difficult to guess what i am looking forward to, is it?

(fonts: bobmono, marcelle script, times and times again; photos downloaded from t'internet)

text reads: "seeing family...sleeping late...exploring biltmore...taking photos...riding bikes...eating bbq...driving the blue ridge parkway...knitting monkees...having fun"


being as we're talking about vacation, i wanted a "picture postcard" look for this page, so it made sense to go digital. i found photos online at various tourism sites of things we're planning to see and do in north carolina, assembled a collage in broderbund printshop, and added text. et voila--une autre page c'est fini!

  2. Are you staying at Richmond Hill Inn? That's where we usually stay...it's less than a 10 minute ride to Biltmore...request "Gary" for a massage :)

  3. Looks like our schedules are just a bit off since I'll be in NC next weekend for Donna Downey's inspired event ... sounds like you have lots of fun plan ... I hope it is everything you're looking forward to & more (check out the new blog design).

  4. Oh yes, I love this idea. A postcard BEFORE you go on holiday. It could just catch on. Especially when monkee knitting is mentioned .....

  7. Perhaps you could market this? Digital, pre-holiday postcards. If you would supply 'em, I would buy 'em.
