Happy Tuesday, peeps! Wow, it’s finally October! I love this month! Today’s inspiration photo from Arielle for the ColourQ is a real eye-opener! What do you think?
I’d be a cheerful chick in the kitchen if I had this fun apron! Speaking of which, I am finding I HAVE to use an apron in the kitchen lately…otherwise, what a slob I am! Seriously! I can’t tell you how many shirts I ruined over the last month! So anyway, I went sort of literal, combining a buncha stuff for my card today:
I did use Coastal Cabana because I couldn’t find any Cool Caribbean cardstock, which really probably wouldn’t have mattered! I used a plethora of stamps (see the list below), including My Digital Studio for the chicken wire background, which I printed in Pumpkin Pie! My little scene was stamped in the challenge colors and put in a little polaroid window that I cut down a wee bit to fit! I pinked my little “fabric scraps” and added my little chicken:
which I hope gave this card a down-home country feel!
And of course, after my card was all complete, I dropped my inky stamp onto the finished inside of the card, causing me to have to “piece” my sentiment!!! Oh well! Still worked out okay!
A few weeks ago I picked up some of Cassidy’s toys and had put them in a big tote in the basement. JOY is finding your little phone again:
LOL—I know the picture is blurry, but it almost looks like she has stars in her eyes….and she is so excited, it cracks me up! Enjoy your day---hopefully yours will be exciting too!
