'P' is for patience, I don't have a whole lot of that right now - my computer is kaput, hopefully it can be revived again, it's like a patient that keeps coding, or a cat with 9 lives, I need it to keep being nursed along because a new computer is NOT in the budget :) I'm on a borrowed 'puter for 10 minutes, so this will be brief, I can't access blogs or Facebook at work (wonder why that is??) so I may not be around too much until my antique computer is fixed.

This card is actually P for Paul, my nephew, whose birthday is today! I had fun messing around with Distress Inks, a scratchy background stamp and mini masks - ink everywhere. P is also for Penny - here are the links to Penny's amazing altered purses:

The purses have their own flickr set at: Penny's Purses on Flickr
Would you like to try making some yourself?
Here's an altered purse tutorial by Penny
If you make one, be sure to add it the
Upcycled Handbags group at Flickr

Hope you had a fun St. Patrick's Day and gave the green beer a wide berth - whoever thought that one up?? Here's what the leprechauns left for my kiddos - green M&Ms, much better idea :)
