sweet!

When I cleaned my desk the other day, I discovered this little sweet scene that had been watercolored who-knows-when and promptly buried in the clutter...soooooo - to my delight, today I had a card that was already half done. Niiiiiiice!


I wanted to have something to share, since I worked a few minutes here and there throughout the day on a project I'm not allowed to post yet...it's a bit past my bedtime so I was going to just center the scene on some patterned paper and call it a day, but I thought I'd change up the background a little, and use up some scraps. I can never do anything the easy way...! (Here is a link to a tutorial I posted last year on making a scrap strip background.)

Stamp is from smARTworks (anybody see this little announcement made yesterday?! woo hoo!!), watercolored with Derwent pencils. The right end of the panel features some faux stitching.

I took a picture in town today to share with you, but it's still on my phone...they had 2 varieties of Lays brand potato chips at the grocery store...Teriyaki Salmon...........and Seaweed. Yep, only in our country... *blech* (also the land where they sell Cheetos...but you can never find cheese flavored ones...only roasted corn, barbecue potato, and baked chicken flavor...!)

  4. Another congratulations from me. And - great job of coloring on this card - looks so soft & pretty! Good grief! Can't get cheese-flavored Cheetos! I'd just slowly fade away - can't do without them. As for those other "exotic flavors" *blech* is right!!!
