Faux Convention Haiku
So this is what happens when you don't get to go to convention...
We were all tired of waiting for news, so I suggested a little fun with Haiku...little did I know that everyone would actually try.
I'm going to send this to Stampin' Up!
Michele Zwart (michlz319 on SCS)
How about a little Haiku while we wait...
Waiting for the news
From Stampin' Up! Convention
When will they tell us?
Why don't you try one? (1st and 3rd lines...5 syllables...2nd line 7 syllables)
Corrina on SCS:

At the time you came up with this did you know about the new paper Haiku?
Enjoyable.

yep, DSP called Haiku
Really, really.
It is a "fall" type of color combo. Tangerine Tango, old olive, so saffron, more mustard combo. Used in some of the harvest, blessing displays...kind of 0tropical also. Very pretty...kind of a combo of all the 70's appliance colors..harvest gold, avacado green, burnt orange. That description might have ruined it for someone.
Going home now....
