Another Thank You Note

So Mr. Darcy went to the groomer again today. I have

to say he really needed to go. He wasn't smelling so good!

I always make a thank you card for the groomer and today

instead of stamping a dog on the card, I chose this cute little

guy I had forgotten about. When I went to pick up Mr. Darcy,

the groomer pointed to the window and showed me that they

had put all the cards I had made in the past up around the

window. What a compliment!

Nature's Nest

I did a swap with other demos this past week and we were to use

current DSP. I started to use one paper that I thought had what

looked like bubbles but when I put my glasses on, I realized they

were flowers! I was determine to use the seashell so I found

this paper from the Sweet Pea selection worked well.

Summer Anyone?

This was a challenge that called for using current DSP. While I

was trying to decide I saw this paper with the pink flamingo and

decided that he (or she) was going to be the focal point of my

card. I embellished it with Boho flower punches and a Sweet Pea

felt flower. Instead of brads I just use the circles from my punches.

Have a great day!

For this Mojo Monday challenge, I used several different

textures. There are so many choices out there and I couldn't

decide between the Petals a Plenty background and a DSP but

the embossed background won out. Then for my Old Olive

strip I did a little faux alligator look. I didn't have Summer

Sun brads to match the corduroy button so I just punched

out a couple of yellow circle dots with my Crop A Dile. I hope

you enjoy it.

Oh That Mr. Darcy!

So today I was teaching a brayer class and guess who wanted

to stamp too? Yep! He was right up in my lap and checking

everyone out and looking at what they were doing! I think he

was saying something like, "Hey this is my stamp area and no

one, I mean no one gets my stamp pad!!!! Always has to be

the center of attention.

So I was looking for Mr. Darcy yesterday after our walk and

couldn't find him. That's when I spotted him in the dining room

chewing on the dice from my Bunco group. Not the dice we play

with but a set someone can wear when they get a Bunco. So I guess

what Mr. Darcy is saying is that he wants to sub for anyone that

can't make the next game!!!!

Here is my entry this week for the MOJO challenge. I used

Thoroughly Modern DSP and the phrase is from Teeny Tiny

Wishes, a must have item!!!. Unfortunately the flowered

part of the paper is not showing up as dark as it really is. I

need a photography lesson to get the lighting right!
