Hmmmm... I did mention that I love to procrasinate, right? Hence why I am hiding out on the computer posting another card and avoiding my homework. Who can blame me really? Does 'Advanced Managerial Accounting' sound like fun to you?
I am back today with this sweetheart, 'Will you be my valentine?':
I felt like de-stressing a bit by gently distressing the edges of the paper. Of course my paper distresser was at home so I had to use the edge of my scissors. The layout is from Crafting Life's Pieces:
Tilda was actually coloured a while back, before my impromptu hiatus so I am afraid that I don't remember what colours I used on her dress or flowers. Her hair was probably my favorite combination of E50, Y21, Y26, and Y28 and her skin colours would be my usual E000/00/21/11. The boots are another of my favorite colour combinations with E41/42/43/44.
For those of you following along, in October I took my son for some testing at the University of Alberta. The U of A offers psychoeducational testing performed by grad students for a cost of only $50. The students are supervised by an actual Psychologist and the testing is actually quite indepth. The lovely student performed a WISC, a Woodcock-Johnson, a BASC, and a GADS. The down side to testing through the U of A is that you have to wait a few months for your results. As I've been waiting for three years to have the testing performed at the school level, another two to three months was no big deal. In the beginning of January, my hubby and I met with the student to review the results of the testing. Her findings point to an extremely mild form of autism called Asperger's. In Edmonton, a diagnosis of Asperger's can only be made by the Glenrose. So, I assembled the half inch think of questionnaires, forms, and reports and submitted the parents' portion, in person, to the Glenrose on February 9th. Sounds rather simple? Nah, I had to have some fun with the whole process - but hey, I'll save that story for another post!
Tilda will be entered into the following challenges:
Crafting Life's Pieces - layout
Cute Card Thursday - flower power (papers and image)

I'm with you cards over homework any day! Wonderful Tilda card, very pretty. So glad that you are getting some answers for your son, hopefully it will become more clear over time, it seems nothing involving paper work is done in a hurry
