Happy Thursday, peeps! I've been missing my stamp room today...it took me two days to get this card done, LOL! But between laundry, picking stuff from the garden and work, I finally finished it! So here we go:
I really enjoyed pulling out these older stamps and playing with them once again! Thanks for visiting today!
So I just want to thank everyone who reached out to make sure I was okay during the last two weeks...my little community in Chester County was very close to where the escaped prisoner was hiding, although we were never in danger as he was never that close to us. He was close to Longwood, where my brother works, and the area where he was captured was relatively close to John's sister's home, but thankfully it is all over now. The Avondale State Police barracks to where he was transported was the nearest to us but he was in good hands there! So happy that K9 did his job perfectly, and we are grateful to the countless police officers as well. It was brutally hot last week and the area in which the escapee was hiding was thick and dense. It's easy to be an armchair critic when we're sitting in our nice cool homes and they are out in the thick of it. I am just glad it's over! Enjoy your day and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteSo glad you were safe--I'm sure that was frightening!!
ReplyDeleteYour card is beautiful! I especially love the little cup--what a cute design!!! Thanks for sharing with us at Inspire.Create! Love seeing your work!
LeAnne. I love the different patterns of paper you pulled together for this card. Your images are perfect to show fall. Thanks for taking part in Inspire.Create.Challenges.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Fall card, LeAnne! Love that you pulled out the older stuff and gave them a fresh new look! Very pretty papers and just love that embossed background panel! Well done on the challenge! I agree with everything you said about the escaped convict these last 2 weeks. Glad it's over!
ReplyDeleteLeAnne, your Autumn card is so sweet - betting you already know which paper is my favorite?
ReplyDeleteI was beyond relief when I heard that capture news - so glad you can all relax and enjoy life again! Like take a walk, right?

I love visiting your blog & seeing your cards you make! I live in PA too (Northampton County near Easton, Allentown, Bethlehem) & as soon as I heard the news about the escaped convict & being near Longwood, I thought of you because I remember your posts with beautiful pictures from there. I would love to visit there one day! So glad it’s now over & so very thankful for everyone involved in capturing him.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful fall creation following a fun sketch! I love that little piece of plaid paper along with the other papers and embossing. It makes me think of some hot mulled cider when I look at this card! Fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a charming fall card! I thought of you the whole time he was on the run. So glad they have him in custody again.
ReplyDeleteGreat card, LeAnne! Love the layout and the colors. I've been missing my stamp room, too! It's been wedding central for us this past week. Looking forward to getting back to a normal stamping/posting routine. Also super glad they caught the escaped prisoner!! God bless those officers out in the thick of it!
