Cedar Key Blue Crab

Several posts ago,  I promised a picture of the blue crab he made to take to Cedar Key.  I realized today that I never did post it.  I think the whole crab should have been blue but what do I know.  It is cute though with those eyes that stick up on the head.

Happy Birthday Mom

Today would have been my mom's birthday and I always wish her a happy birthday on my blog.  I sure do miss her.

The Octopus for Cedar Key

Are you getting tired of seeing sealife cards yet?  This will be the last one for awhile.  I have not used this stamp in a long time.  It has been retired for many years.  In fact, it was retired when I bought it.  The animals in this set are a little more whimsical than the other set I have been featuring recently.



I hope the designer paper gives you the impression of waves because that is what I thought of when I saw it.

Cedar Key Seahorse and Fish

 


This is another card that I made with Cedar Key in mind.  I am not concerned if I have a lot of beachy type cards because I know I will use them.  Most of them are good for either a male or female.

It is just about 3 weeks until we go to the Cedar Key Seafood Festival.  I am getting excited to show our wares at this show.

Cedar Key Lobster

Here is that beach towel looking designer paper.  This time I am featuring a lobster on the towel.  We have had company this past week so we have had lots of pool and beach time.  I hate to see them go but I do need to get back to work.

Cedar Key Crab

The show at Cedar Key is a seafood festival.  I don't eat anything that comes out of the water except seaweed which I have only had a few times.  Apparently the featured seafood is crab so I had to make a crab card to go along with his stained glass crabs.

Cedar Key

We are doing a show in Cedar Key the weekend of October 17 through October 18.  I really wanted to do this show just to visit Cedar Key because in 42 years of living in Florida I haven't been there.  So I am making several cards featuring the beach.  Remember this designer paper?  I used it earlier on the blog and told you it reminded me of a beach towel.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad

Today would have been my parent's anniversary, but I forget how many years.  I guess the important thing is they were married over 55 years when my dad died.  The background of this card is the Work of Art set that I have been using the past few post along with an older set called Baroque Motiffs.  The butterfly is new this year and I love it.

Traditional End of Summer

Labor Day weekend was always the traditional end of summer, back to school weekend when I was young.  Now a days school starts before Labor Day.  For me, school never starts anymore, retirement is so nice.  This is also the Work of Art set used to make popsicles to end the summer.

Fish?? for Cedar Key

When I asked what are they I was told they were fish.  Ok, I guess I see that but not my idea of a nice fish glass piece.  It is kind of growing on me though and I could see it in a beach house.
