A twofer!!! Thank goodness
Simon Says Stamp & Show Blog and the
Grungy Monday 06 challenges would work out for a two-fer because I've been plenty busy this week. A funeral took me out of town for 2 days, I've spread 6 cubic yards of mulch, finished planting my veggie & herb garden, planted a lot of perennials and quite a few hanging baskets and planters, attended an out-of-town college graduation and have another one this weekend as well as a class with Wendy Vecchi (yes!). I'll be heading to nw IL shortly for some stops along the way before reaching my destination. Oh, my entry? Sure, guess I'd better share now before I bog you down with any more details you don't really care to hear. Sorry!
My 3x3 Sticky notepad cover started out as a 8 1/2"x 4 1/8" tag. The
weathered wood technique in greens and browns is the background (inside and out), then added more Tim stamps, foliage and Maya Road flower to decorate inside and out.
Ranger products: Lettuce, Gold Pigment Ink; Pumice Stone, Tea Dye, Walnut Stain Distress Inks; Walnut Stain Distress Embossing Powder; Sepia, Coffee, Jet Black Archival Inks
Tim stamps: Nature's Elements, Nature's Moments
Now maybe I won't have to search so hard for paper when I need to jot down an idea or add to my shopping wish list!
So glad blogger is working again and I can get to see this! It is gorgeous.

Susan, I really admire your work and love this little book. Thanks for joining the challenge at Simon Says Stamp & Show.
ReplyDeleteJust adorable, love the ickle flower, and is that corner stamp one of tim's.. i need it!
ReplyDeleteYou are such a creative (and hard-working) lady. The effect and faded corners look so good on your book. Relish that Wendy class - all sounds busy but you are definitely living what you stamp - way to go!
