I. Did. It.

       Seriously.  I did.  I finished my virtual race.  I was hoping the pictures of my t-shirt and medal would be ready today, but I will have to post them next time.  They should come in the mail tomorrow.  I signed up for my second race - The Road to Hana.  A virtual trip around the coast of Hawaii's Hana Road.  It is 59.5 miles!  I probably will be forever finishing this one, but what is the rush?  Anyone interested in doing this go over to Yes Fit.  It is a lot of fun.
     This week's inchie was Zimbabwe.  I know next to nothing about this country.  I discovered they some of the world's most beautiful falls and of course, there is the African wildlife! I chose the flag (I sort of have a pattern going with those for now at least) and one of my favorite animals - the elephant.
       Joey's Creative Inspiration had a great challenge - use string #91 and the tangle knightsbridge.  I decided to use a mix of knightsbridge and emingle.   I like to try different grid tangles within knightsbridge.  Otherwise it is not a tangle I often use.
      This week's challenge at Casa Diva's was to use a heart string and the tangle rimana.  This was a lot of fun. 
       I took to pinterest again this past week for some more color palette ideas.  That is a lot of fun to do.  It makes coloring a design very quick and relaxing.  Here are my "color palettes kitties".


     Now I think I shall go and do some scrapbooking for a bit.  I went through the hassle this past week of cleaning my craft corner.  Well.  Sort of cleaning.  Reorganizing.  I now can get to my cricut stuff without a MAJOR moving of other items.  That has made it very nice.  Ideally I would love a craft room and one of those super sweet pieces of furniture - the scrapbox 3.0 - but in a house this small, that is not going to happen.  So I reorganized! 
     Hope you all have a wonderful week and stay healthy!  I am perfectly happy to have avoided this nasty flu going around!  Hugs!
