St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day. My little grandson Max has been talking for a month about the Patrick's, they were coming to make a mess today, he will not call them Leprechauns, he insist they are Patrick's. His mom has had to assure him that they wont be in his room. I wish I knew what goes through his little mind.So watch out, and if you find a mess in your house you will know the Patrick's had a hand in creating the mess. 

For my card today I used DRS designs, Leprechaun, Shamrock Background, Silhouette Clover and the One Line St. Pats. Day Greeting. I used a combination of Inktense Pencils and Copic markers.The Shamrock Background, and the Silhouette Clover were stamped with Peeled Paint Distress Ink. The One Line Greeting was stamped with black ink and all the edges were sponged with Antique Linen.

Wishing you all the Luck Of the Irish, and the Patrick's

Sunflower Wreath

Hi everyone, hope your week is off to a good start. I made it into the old stamping room this afternoon and made this card for the Timeless Tuesday Challenge over on the Flourishes Blog. The challenge this week is to ues Kraft paper.

I used The Seasonal Wreaths stamp set. I stamp the sunflower wreath with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Georgia Pacific paper. And used Inktens pencils. Spellbinder Circle dies were used to cut out the image and the background. I used a little Distress Ink (antique linen) along the edges. The background paper and the strip across the bottom was embossed with a Lifestyle Crafts embossing folder. I used a old piece of paper lace behind the green strip.


Have a wonderful day,

Janett

A bowl of apples

Wow! what a week this has been Sunday my son in law Shane ask me to go with him and help him pick tomatoes a friend was giving to him. Of course I said yes, Hummm. We left a seven and were picking in thirty minutes. I had no ideal how many tomato's we were bring home I bet there was 30 to 40 lbs. if not more the whole time i'm thinking what are you going to do with all these tomato's. While we were picking the owner put's a box of bell peppers in the truck. When we were done with the tomato's Shane was showing me the rest of the farm, and the owner ask if I like corn ( I sure do) well go over to that field and pick all you want, silver queen is on the right cream and sugar on the left here we go the whole time i'm picking I think it's for Shane he said he wanted some for his grandmother. I have already put up corn this year from my garden. When we left the corn field I told Shane to stop at the farm stand, and I found some peas and he sold me twenty lbs for twenty dollars. I was so happy I can't grow peas because the deer eat them. By the time we left the farmer gave us two watermelons, and a cantaloupe.When we get home Shane takes 2 buckets of tomato's, maybe ten ears of corn, 1 watermelon, and the cantaloupe. So this week I canned 21 quarts of tomatoes, 21 pints of peas, a gallon of pepper are in the freezer and today I have three dehydrators full of tomato's, I told Shane we had to give some of these tomato's away, I don't need all of them. So we got on the phone and made a lot of people very happy. and I still have a five gallon bucket of tomato's. And today I going to try to make some corn cob jelly.

I have this card that I did over a week ago that I wanted to share today. The image is from The Artful Stamper ( Apples), and I used my Inktense Water soluble pencils and Georgia Pacific paper. I really love these new pencils the color is so bright and they blend so well. I better get back to work.


Have a wonderful day,
