AHSC690 A Beautiful Day

Happy Monday, all!  Well, my company has all gone home and things are back to semi-normal!  We did have a lovely week, though!  Eating, thrift shopping, boating....lots of fun things!  I was able to get back into my stamp room for this week's Atlantic Hearts sketch:

I varied my card a wee bit from the sketch as I had a die that cuts out circles instead of squares, so I opted to use that!  Here we go:

My Close to My Heart die was used on SU's new Wood Grain Wonder DSP.  I then punched 1" circles from Honey Bee's Vitamin Sea papers in various prints and fit them inside the openings.  A shell and sentiment from Beautiful Beach were added as the focal points:

I added some sequins from my stash along with some braided trim:

You can be so creative with this sketch---there are endless possibilities! I hope you'll play along with us this week at Atlantic Hearts!

My sister is a great thrifter--she's sort of a "picker" for some friends who have antique booths, so she is always on the lookout for some thrifty finds!  Her hubby Russ was in charge of some of the items too large to fit in her basket at one shop:

And after a busy morning of thrifting, we had to stop to eat at a very tiny little restaurant that had amazing food:

John's burger looked delicious--I had to sneak some fries!

The burger Russ ordered was quite a handful!:

We didn't get any boat pictures, but that was a great day too!  Thanks for visiting today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!
