Day 23: I'm going to Vegas, baby!

Yes, I am. Tomorrow right after work (if I can make it to the airport on time... unless I leave work early, I have 50 minutes to drive there from downtown, park in the Economy Lot (it's amazing and only $5 a day), take the shuttle to the airport, check my bags and board. All this in rush hour traffic.) I leave for Chicago, then early Friday morn it's off to Sin City. What a horrible name for a city. I'm really not sure how to pack for a Vegas adventure, so I kind of just threw a bunch of cute tops and a variety of skirts/bermudas/pants in my suitcase and I'm hoping my outfits will all come together somehow. We're only there for three days so I'm sure I'll have plenty (except for that one thing I never wear and didn't think to pack but for some reason really want to wear in Vegas).

Below are some recent greeting cards. Consider it the start of my portfolio. Right now I don't have much of a repertoire to show for the Ali Arts line of card creations because although I've been hand making all my cards since about junior year of high school, well, I've given all the cards away gosh darnit. I make them on a need basis, meaning when it's someone's birthday or a holiday, I make a card. Then I give it to them. Complex, I know. So from now on I'm going to photograph my cards before I send them so I can have some sort of portfolio in case I ever want to go into business (a mini-dream I've always had). Disclaimer: The photo quality of these is absolutely atrocious since I have mine shaft lighting in my room and camera flashes don't do the cards justice.
