Items of Interest

Here are some photos from this last week. As you can very well see our garden is...uh...done. This year it was so awesome that even tho it was a lot of work I still am sad to see it go. There are some of our potatoe harvest...still haven't dug them all, our last tomatoes, our THREE heaping wheelbarrows of buttercup squash & my "Cowboy Candy" or "Candied jalapenoes". They are awesome & my guys wish I would have made a lot more. Maybe I can "bum" a few my JalapeƱos from a friend.
The cinnamon rolls have nothing to do with the garden....you gathered that?
Our friend, Wolfgang, was here from Germany & it is tradition that I make him "sweet buns" so I did.
Well Happy Sunday.... May you have a very restful, blest day!!!

Party This Way

Happy Fall!!! Whether we like it or not it is upon us!!!
Here's a card that you can change up in so many ways!!! Stampin Up! has do many awesome DSP's that it makes it easy to create this card over & over.
This uses the "Howlstooth & Scaringbone" DSP. Although it technically is Halloween paper (you all KNOW how I "love" Halloween) there are no skulls, spiders or witches on it which makes it the perfect masculine DSP!!! It is one of my favorite DSPs.
So have fun with this design & see what YOU can do with it!
