RWB Stamptacular Sunday Challenge

Today's SSC challenge is RWB and a star too! Well I was able to put together a card today and even though it didn't turn out as I thought it's... growing on me! LOL Some cards are works of art and some are just okay. This one is just okay. I finally colored one of the beautiful Sarah Kay images that my dear friend Priscilla sent me. I am intimidated by all the little details on these stamps. I would've liked to make the bows red and white, but just couldn't see trying to get all those tiny dots white! The same with the picnic cloth it would've been so cute red and white or blue and white. Oh well it's done and it's not horrible I guess. As you can tell from the past few cards I've done I really like the opaque white for wet embossing. I thought I'd go with a different star this time around. I also used star beads...that's what the small silver stars are. I also had some of this red & white fiber from a swap on sb.com probably 2 yrs ago by now.

I thought I'd also post a couple of pix of my flowers. The garden spot isn't weeded enough yet, so I'll only post the ones in pots. The potty chair has red impatiens and a spiky accent plant. And of course I had to have some purple petunias for my mailbox. Once the flower garden is cleaned up I'll take some pix of that and oh I really need to take some pix of my small vegetable garden. The cilantro is nearly to my waist and hey I'm 5'11" so thats one tall cilantro plant! The tomatoes are nearly as tall. The peppers may become overshadowed by the tomatoes hey this is my first veggie garden. give me a break. LOL. The cucumbers aren't that tall but do have blossoms and some of the blossoms even have a tiny cuke on them! So here are the potted flowers.




















Oh and Mitch has been lucky enough
to find a ride for rehearsals. So we don't get to Adrian as much but I thought I'd post a pic of The Spotted Cow. The ice cream place with free WIFI. They have some wonderful flurries there. The hand dipped ice cream is yummy too. Tomorrow Mitch has a ride there but needs me to come and get him. Its funny how you're used to running and then when you don't you think you can finally get some stuff done, but it's nice to just sit and relax for once too! At least I have time to cook a little better than just sandwiches or hot dogs. :D.





Hope you have a great week and I hope to have another post or two this week. Thanks for dropping by!
