This week's Freshly Made Sketch #198 is a fun one - so much movement conveyed by those tilty panels! I also just realized this could be my chance to sneak in the color challenge over at TGIF #15 - yay! I still have two sets sitting on my desk that haven't been inked yet from my last order, so I decided today to focus on one of them - Gift from the Garden. I've been having a surprisingly productive gardening season here myself, especially considering I live in the desert, lol. Turns out the secret I was missing was to aim for the opposite seasons I am used to (ie. start in the WINTER), and plant in the shade, go figure. So hubby made me three ambitious raised box-beds in the side yard under the neighbor's VERY tall overhanging trees, and we've been growing ever since. With all that shade, my tomatoes even keep on going - it's kinda a jungle out there right now, I might actually have to prune! Anyway, all this made me totally stoked to see this new stamp set, I plan on using it for lots of garden-gifting this Christmas, lol... Everyone gives basil for Christmas, right? Gift from the Garden Stamp Set; Schoolhouse DSP; Basic Gray, Heavy & Regular Whisper White CS; Basic Gray, Daffodil Delight & Pool Party Inks; Banner Triple Punch; Decorative Dots Embossing Folder; White Perfect Accents; Medium Daffodil Delight Blendie (discontinued.) Hello Life: Lots of Cards Class I'm so excited to announce this month's class - Hello Life: Lots of Cards! This class will take our leftovers from our Hello Life Grid projects, and make 20 note cards and envelopes! Woo hoo! The bonus is using up all the leftover supplies from those projects, too! So, class is announced for Thursday, August 13, 6:30 pm or Saturday, August 15, 3 pm. All you need to bring are your leftovers from our Project Life kit, your favorite adhesive and I'll provide the rest, for the screaming deal of $10! There will also be drinks and snacks, plus your take-home treat from me! RSVP today! PS. I have one intact Hello Life kit remaining for $25 if you'd like to join us - plus this class fee of $10 would make $35 total. Just let me know!
