Time for Apple Pie...

Hi folks!

It is a glorious Sunday in Missouri!  Goodness, I hope you have all gotten outside today for a while. I'm just coloring like crazy, and Steven Tyler's singing to me while I work.

Have lots to do today, so it shall be a short post.  I'm using Carly's great sketch today.  Carly is Kristine B.'s daughter, and is a wonderful young artist.  Stop by her blog and check out her very own digi images :)

Supplies: Authentique DP, Copic Markers, Kaiser Craft Pearls, Colorbok CS, Spellbinder's Circle Dies

Today's share is a sweet little Sarah Kay image, "Time for Apple Pie".  This card was created for my chemo angel patient, and I'll enclose a little apple something or other.  For the flowers, I punched a few circles, cut them in a spiral and rolled them, finishing them off with a pearl.

I'm entering this in the following challenges:

Sketches by Carly: Sketch
CAS-ual Fridays: Use pastels and black
7 Kids College Fund: Anything Goes

Thank you so much for stopping by.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend!  I'm off to peel potatoes.  See you all soon.

Hugs and blessings,
Patti J.

Food for thought:  Patience is the one thing that I can never get fast enough to suit me :)

Thanks!

Hi there, my friends!

Hope that your day is going well.  In Missouri, the sun is shining (temporarily, I'm told), there is no wind, no icy, snowy precip, and temps are mid-forties.  Ahhh.....life is good!

I have a card to share today, that I actually made to enter a couple of challenges.  I know, don't faint!  I've not been doing so well at that lately!

I'm entering the Impression-Obsession challenge, "Oldies but Goodies".

I chose to use this fun and fabulous Sketches by Carly sketch #48.and will enter the challenge there, as well.

Here is my card:

The funny thing about this card, is that a couple of challenges ago, at Impression-Obsession's blog, the challenge was "Pink".  So, believe it or not, this image was stamped, and colored in RV 06 Copic marker. As you know, that is a nearly glow in the dark pink color!  This challenge is "Oldies but Goodies".  We are supposed to use an older I-O stamp.  I wasn't sure which of my stamps were 'older', so decided that I'd just try to make it LOOK like an older stamp...ha ha ha.  So, here you have it - my Oldie but Goody!  When all else fails, pretend that you know what you are doing and folks will believe you do!!!


Supply list:

Stamps: Impression Obsession, Thanks Collage
Card Base: BoBunny Dotted CS
DP: My Mind's Eye, 'Love Me' collection, Kraft Cardstock (mats)
Ribbon: Stampin'Up Seam Binding (thanks Amanda!!!)
Brown CS: Amuse
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz Distress Ink, Antique Linen and Tea Dye

I am on day three today, of cleaning and purging in my girl cave.  How in the world do we accumulate and KEEP so much 'stuff' that we no longer use, never use, probably never WILL use???  Heaven help me, I'm becoming a reclusive hoarder!   Tee hee....

Have a great day - thanks so much for stopping by today!  I'll be back tomorrow with a cutie from Doodle Pantry, and on Thursday, I'll have my final project using Melanie Muenchingers fabulous Stately Flowers 2 set.  Hope to see you again soon!

Hugs,
Patti J.
