Nuts About Nutmeg

Yes, I know it's been a while - a long while since I've posted here. Work has been beyond busy and since my last post three of us have had H1N1, there was one middle-of-the-night ER trip for a high fever, one middle-of-the-night ER trip for an allergic reaction with hives and shortness of breath, a trip to attend a wedding in northern California, and a trip to attend a wedding in Newark (with sightseeing in New York City as well, of course!). Seth has also attended two conferences, one in Toronto and one in Ohio. Needless to say, there hasn't been much time for anything much beyond the day-to-day. Well, until this weekend!

I came back from the kids' soccer games yesterday to a package on my doorstep containing Cosmo Cricket's new Nutmeg line. Can I just say that it's even better in person than in pictures online?! I am completely nuts about Nutmeg! I made four layouts and three cards with it yesterday. Two of the layouts seem to need something so I'm going to sit on those for a bit before posting. I will, however, share the other two layouts and the three cards, and will also post the work I did yesterday with Cosmo Cricket's Jolly By Golly line. Yes, that's right, I made five layouts and four cards yesterday.
