This is my new favorite stamp set. It's called Wetlands and it's from SU. Also loving the thinlets die cuts for making flip cards. It's so much easier than the old way. I hope SU makes more. The colors is used for this card: early espresso ink. The paper is very vanilla and marina mist.
Went to my 40th high school reunion, I still can't believe that I have been out of high school that long. Where does the time go? Guess that's it, thanks for stopping by.

Sahara Birds

This is the first time I have used this stamp set. It's from SU called Wetlands. I've seen a lot of people doing a technique with masking tape or painters tape. I used painters tape for this. Used sahara sand, soft sky and chocolate chip ink. I think this would make a great man card. Watching the Yankees, hopefully they will win and make the wild card. Then they could keep playing for a few more weeks.
Thanks for looking.

Slushy Flowers

It's been a while since I've posted a card. I made this for the color challenge over at SCS. All items are from SU. The color challenge: pear pizzazz, midnight muse and strawberry slush. The two stamps sets: Summer Silhouettes and Silly Salutations.

My mother's house is finally cleaned out and has been on the market for about 10 weeks. We have lowered the price twice. Everyone that sees the house says it's nice, they just don't like the layout. Not to much I can do about that. The realtor says that if it doesn't sell in the next 4 to 6 weeks we will probably be stuck with it over the winter.  Oh well. It is what it is.

I will try to be better at posting. Not sure if many people even look at my blog. Thanks for stopping by.

I made this for the color challenge over at scs. the city guy came and checked out the house, they meet on the 19th of March, and hopefully the taxes will be lower and we should get some money back. thanks for stopping and looking, i never know if anyone checks out the cards or not. if you do thanks.

Fun

Got new things from SU today, this set is one of the things. Had to make a card with chevrons on it. I think this makes a great man card. I've had this week off from school and I have been very busy. I had a haircut, went and had an eye appointment. I also have a cold. The appraiser came and checked out my mothers house. If it was painted we would have been appraised higher. So we are going to be painting the ceilings and all the walls. I want to have the house on the market by the send of the month. My mother was being taxed on a house that was worth a lot more than it's listed for. So I had to go to city hall and talk to them about reducing the taxes, so the city guy is coming out on Monday. I can't wait till we are done with the house and it's sold along with all the other stuff. I want to get my life back so I can read more and make more cards. Thanks for stopping by.
