{old storybook romance} SFYTT & TGF

Happy Saturday everyone!!!

I have SO much to tell you I don't even know where to start?!

I'm super excited because I just found out last night that I got into my school's 2 year CG program!! YAY!!!

I wasn't sure whether I'd get in because in all honesty I hadn't really drawn or done any sort of art in the last ten years so over the past two months I've been trying to catch up and get a good portfolio together...I guess I succeeded!!!! :)

In case you're wondering: I'm studying Computer Animation/Visual Effects...that sorta stuff.

So that's one reason why I have an extra big smile on my face but there's another reason also: I'm sort of seeing someone...or would be if he lived in town. I know him from college but we hadn't really spoken since then until about two weeks ago when we reconnected on facebook. Now we talk almost every day and I'm supposed to go see him next month. :)

Oh and then I have one more reason to smile extra wide and that's

because my dear friend's husband, who was undergoing treatment for cancer, is in remission and cancer free!!!! If that's not reason to celebrate and have a cocktail, what is?!

Okay now that I've chattered you all an earful let's talk cards:

It's time for another great and fun sketch challenge brought to you by the one and only Jen del Muro AND we've got a sponsor for you this week: The Greeting Farm.

For all the deets on what goodies you can win and where to link your little masterpiece to, please stop by Jen's Blog.

I have to admit my mojo seems to be on a little vacation at the moment because it took me forever to get this card together and at first I wasn't all that happy with the way it had turned out but I looked at it again and all of a sudden it reminded me of the old storybooks my mom used to read to me when I was a kid...sniff sniff....look at me getting all sappy and sentimental on you... lol. Anyway...now I'm quite happy with the look I've achieved. :)
