Hello all!! We had a beautiful weekend here in Western NY! And, it was a fun one, too! Sunday was just for relaxing and taking a walk. Friday night was going out with friends to celebrate a birthday and Saturday was a terricic hike down into a gorge where there's a beautiful waterfall. Good times.
Here is Tilda in a close photo. Her bench is actually stamped on Sahara Sand and then colored with w1, 3 and 5. The screen door is from Buffalostamps. com. She has a brick and mortar store, but will also mail out some die cuts and screen. Sharon (store owner) created this die a couple of years ago and it is perfect for summer cards! Remember when your mom would say, "Don't slam the door!" in the summer time? With 6 children, I think my mom said it ALL the time!
I used Kittie's tutorial (she has a lot of great ones on her sidebar) for the flower wreath. I recently bought the Memory Box flower mound die for the very tiny flowers that are on the wreath and in the grass.
Thanks for coming by today! Wishing you a productive and happy Monday!
Cheryl
