For my card I used the beautiful :Ball Wreath and Sending Scribbles clear stamp set from Poppystamps and the beautiful mix of sequins called: 

Grandma's Roses 28 Lilac Lane and they come in a tin! I think this 

is my favorite mix of sequins!

I didn't want all my sequins to fall to the bottom of the wreath so I decided to make a channel not sure what to call it .... and it worked! It's  all done with fun foam and I just cut where needed. Once I filled it up I adde a piece of vellum to the back.... then turned it over and place on my card.

Make It Monday #297: Mixing Florals 

with Dawn

Happy Fall to you all!
I couldn't wait to play along and create a card for Make it Monday.
Dawn has a fun video sharing how she mixed floral sets to 
to create one card. 

I used five stamp sets to create this Christmas card. What looks like
pine needles is rosemary.
I think I might need some Christmas florals, I don't have any.

Kitchen Fall Table 2017, with a few of 
the pumpkins from my collection.

 This was so much fun! Nothing quick about it though, going through many sets, to see what would work for my cluster.

 God bless!

A New Puppy & Christmas Tag

Create Along With Us: September 2017

Hello! 

I wanted to share our new puppy with you here on my blog, for those of you who don't do Instagram. 

This is Lucy, she is as sweet as she looks! Its like having a newborn and I am so tired

but worth every bit of tired.

I was inspired by Dawn's beautiful tags.

 My tag turned out a little busier than I would have liked but decided to post it anyway. 

I used the: Make It Market Kit: Tinsel & Tags  

Thanks for the visit today! 

Keeping all of you that were in the path of the storm in my contained prayers.

All Those Golden Leaves

Hello and Happy September to you! 

My goodness time is going by so quickly!

 Welcome to the Serendipity Stamps Hop !

 I turned the stamp over and colored it in with zig brush pens then spritzed with water, using a MISTI I was able to sections at a time, grass , trunks and upper tree!. It looked beautiful but I kept adding a bit more leaves once the image was stamped. I would spritz with water and blend with a water-pen.

After stamping and embossing the sentiment I decided to make a few embossed leaves, with a versa mark pen. I maybe, should have stoped because my leaves look a bit like teardrops. I wish I would have taken pictures in stages but it was already dark. 

One of my favorite tv shows is Little House On the Prairie, one of the reasons I love this quote by

 Laura Ingalls Wilder. 

What a fun stamp image with so many possibilities! Link below.
