Bbq King

Looking at this card just makes me happy. I'm not sure whether it's the colours or if it's the great digi (and the fact that it was a freebie) from MelonHeadz .....but I can certainly tell you what it's not. It's not those brads which must be the sharpest pointiest brads on the face of the planet. And it's not the fact that I forgot to colour the rim of the bbq and had to do it after it was already stuck on the card with no pop dots behind that spot so I couldn't press very hard so it still looks uncoloured. It's definitely not the fact that I had to draw on the apostrophe between the "r" and the "s" (and most assuredly not that I just had to have an apostrophe on the card because that's correct grammar). Also, it's not that my inking is on the sloppy side or the fact that I neglected to shade under Mr. Bb(q)King.

Good golly, why was I happy in the first place? ;-)

Okay, so ever since I started my blog (well, maybe not right from the get-go, it was probably a good six months or so before I realized you could change it from just "Leave your comment") I've tried to come up with something witty to type here.

*sitting with brow furrowed in concentration*...*staring at the ceiling while pursing lips*...*resting with head on hand while tapping foot*...

Nope, I still got nothing.
