Pinecones & Plaid



I realized I really don’t have any pinecone stamps!


Hi, just popping in with a quick post. My DH has been gone all week, on his Canada fishing trip with friends. He comes home tonight,
I have been trying to shake a headache all day.

I colored these leaves with my Tim Holtz Distress Markers. I really enjoyed doing this. It helps to have the gold embossing to keep the ink from running. (out of the lines:)

Take Care!

  4. So pretty, Marybeth. Love that gold embossing; it just makes everything else pop! Take some advil or naproxen or tylenol with some caffeine--coke, coffee...The caffeine helps the meds work. And have a wonderful weekend. Bev

  26. Oh, your fabulous simplicity and great taste, Marybeth. Love the bow stamped on the plaid paper, gold embossed and cut out.

    Wish I could comment on all your cards, but I just can't keep up with you. Your a powerhouse these days. (I always knew the day would come when I would think, "I knew she'd be famous one day.")

    Sure hope your headache goes away. Have fun when your husband comes home, even if he smalls a bit like a fish.
