Kumquat Festival

Our first show of 2016 is what I consider our last show.  We only do shows from late September to December and then the Kumquat Festival the last Saturday of January.  So to me this is our last show for awhile.  We love Dade City and all the fun home town feel that the city has.  We love coming up here for some of the Christmas activities they have and also to look around the shops.  This show is a great way to finish our show season.  Come see us this Saturday.  We are on the main street just beyond the library.

Birthday Feathers

On this card, I used the same mix of colors in the sentiment as I used in the feathers.  I was able to do this by using markers instead of stamp pads.  My birthday is coming up very soon.  I sure wish I could turn the clock back a few years.

More Feathers

If you follow my blog, you know that I seem to post a few of the same set once I start a set.  So it should be no surprise that I am posting more feathers.  I like the feathers with turquoise backgrounds because to me it is very southwest looking.

The Feather Stamp

I didn't buy this stamp set, even though I did think about it for a bit.  However, one of my stampin' buddies did buy it and loaned it to me.  That is something that is nice about being on a team, there is always someone that has whatever one is looking for.   I got the idea for this card on Pinterest.  I thought the colors went well together.

Happy Birthday

In one of my other posts, October 2015, I talked about Jim's frog collection and the green VW.  Although I used this card for something else, I thought it was a good one to post for his birthday post.

We celebrated last night with our friends.  Three of the four of us have January birthdays so dinner and a movie have become the traditional way to celebrate.

It's Another Girl

While we were visiting with our family during Christmas, our niece found out that the baby she is expecting in May will be a girl.

YODA

With all the Star Wars excitement, how did  I forget to publish this card?  I found the original on Pinterest and the original design can be found here,  http://www.cardsandacuppa.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/yoda-punch-art-wish-we-do-for-zack.html

I will admit to not remembering much about the Star Wars movies I saw and I don't think I saw them all.  But it is a fun card.

Happy New Year

Yeah I know, these are Christmas cards.  But in many parts of the country it is cold and snowy so I thought I would post them anyway.  When my brother was still teaching I would send him a snow card every year wishing him many snow days.  This would have been the perfect die to use for that type of card.  This die is another crafter's companion die.
