Sunflowers - #TTTC258

 



My cousin hosted a mortgage burning party recently - a fun event for a big moment!  Sunflowers are in bloom during early fall days so I decided to stencil some on a celebratory card for her.  The card was perfect with the big bouquet of sunflowers that I brought for her!  


I also stamped some small sunflowers from a Lawn Fawn set in the front corner of the envelope and colored them with copics to coordinate with my card. I need to decorate my envelopes more often!





I went down the right side of the grid this week at Tic Tac Toe. Hope you play along!

Let It Snow But Not Just Yet....FMS657

 



My ice skating days are over but I do have fond memories of spending many winter afternoons skating on a local rink.  We aren't quite ready for snow and ice here yet as we are enjoying an amazingly beautiful fall!  Lots of soccer games!


                                                







I made a tag following Karren's sketch but if you have to change it up a bit she won't mind at all! We love to see your interpretations at Freshly Made Sketches!

Halloween Pumpkins....FMS655

 


Well it has been a week around here -soccer games, doctor appointments, new furniture delivery, and general nonsense.....and somehow I lost a day and did not have my FMS card done in time! I keep leftover holiday pieces in separate envelopes so I dumped out the Halloween envelope and crossed my fingers this morning. And there was a lovely batch of batch of pumpkins! I started with them and added on some other pieces I found in the envelope! A bit of coloring and some DSP and I was done!

Now I am headed to the living room for some Netflix by the fireplace on this rainy afternnon - I need a day of rest! We have had an amazingly gorgeous and warm September and have been very busy with the grands. So an afternoon by the fire on a cool day sounds good to me!
