Take a Deep Breath

Morning.    I’m not sure if it’s a good morning.  Too soon to tell…and I don’t think my eyes are open all the way yet.   We had some drywall work and painting done in our house this weekend so the furniture was everywhere, dust IS everywhere…it’s a mess.  And we spent all day yesterday out of town, visiting relatives.  That was lots of fun.  But I’m tired and I have a ton of things to do today.  So I’ll be kind of quick…

Last week I played a bit with Jen’s January SFYTT (Sketch For You To Try).  I’m so glad she changed her format to once a month.  Less work for her and more time for everyone to fit it into a busy schedule.  Here’s the sketch:

Take a Deep Breath (I may have to tell myself this later today)

I’ve used Deep Breath from The Cat’s Pajamas, another of the many sets I had awaiting ink.  

I paper-pieced the hat and scarf and split the one-line sentiment into three to fit the circle.

 I better get going!  Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a great day, and I’ll be back soon!
