I combined two challenges with this card. I wanted to do the Cardabilities challenge with this sketch.

Over on SCD they had a current challenge of making whatever you want with the colors orange, brown and gold mainly. So here is what I came up with!

Today I think we have a grocery store run in the cards. We need items so Lewis can make crawfish ettoufee for dinner tonight. I'm thinking I'm going to write down what he does and take pictures. This is good real ettoufee from a New Orleans native. The good stuff. He's the best southern cook there is. Scratch that. He's the best cook I know period.
We also are going to go pick up some Halloween decorations. Logan wants to decorate our house. He wants it to look "haunted" from the outside he says. lol. So we'll work on that a bit today. Typically I'm a bit of a downer when it comes to decorating seasonally because of storage issues, but I'm just going to go with it and make room. Logan loves it. I think Leo will like it too. He likes to fake scream at scary things. Its cute.
Hope everyone's weekend is going great.
Oh! Yeah here's an updated picture of my painting from my painting class. Here's where it is right now.
It still needs more work to make the moon on the orange disk have more contrast and the fish still needs more contrast and work. Otherwise I'm almost done. I'm so over it. lol.
Thanks for stopping by!
