summer fun ...

Sharing a little bit of A Muse newsletter goodness today! (You can sign up here!) This card was a part of last Friday's edition! Really makes me want to get our grill up and running ... how about you guys?
My favorite bit on this card is the coloring on the grill. Yes, it's grey, but I used a Sakura Souffle pen to give it a fun matte texture. Really reminds me of a well-used charcoal grill!

Michelle and I had a "hot date" (as she called it) online Saturday night to do a little trip planning. We found some cool options for avoiding lines in Rome, emailed a few monasteries and convents to see if they had lodging available (figured that would be a unique place to stay), and altered our stopping point between Paris and Rome to spend a few hours in Geneva. Planning is good. The trip is, I would say, about 90% planned and booked. Just a few things left to cross off the list! Which is good considering it's just a bit over three weeks away. Wow ... can hardly believe that!
