Birthday Wishes

Thought there weren't going to be any new posts today??? Well, I did, but I was able to finish this before there wasn't enough light outside to take the pic! I used my underused Papertrey sets (Green Thumb and Faux Ribbon), in honor of today's new set, Little Lady (did you order yours yet???). The new one is a smaller set, and only $15! The ladybugs are so cute, though!

The layout came from Amy Westerman - I'm starting to really dig these layouts! I need to start doing the Sketch Challenges on SCS again - it's so nice not to have to think so much, once in a while...or always! {wink} The bucket idea came from (I think, and correct me if I'm wrong???) Julie Masse. She (and I) used one of the stems from the set to create a handle for the flower pot, to make a bucket. I stamped off for the bucket, and rock-n-rolled in Grey, and used Grey full-strength for the handle. The flowers are rock-n-rolled, as well, and dotted with Stickles for shimmer.

I hope that everyone is having a wonderful Tuesday. Hopefully, I'll be able to stamp a few things tonight. I'm leaving this weekend for Texas for a few days, and I'd like (maybe wishful thinking???) to have some eye candy for you while I'm gone.

I haven't forgotten about the Naptime Nuggets. I'm planning on something really cool for the 30,000 mark - I just need to figure out what that something is first! LOL That's the hardest part for me!

  3. You find just the coolest paper! The rock and roll is a really neat effect (or is it affect -- I should know that!) on the bucket.

  4. You really can't go wrong with stripes and polka dots, can you? Well, YOU personally can't anyway. This is awesome! I ordered my new Papertrey set and Green Thumb (by the time I wanted it, it was back ordered for quite some time) and Faux Ribbon. Can't wait to play.
