Picture of the kay noe with the new deck bag added-old all my standard tackle, some fly tackle, and a couple of beers-I attached it with so quick connects...

Speaking of Cleopatra (see next post), I was just yakking on Facebook about the existence of a Cleopatra Barbie, news of which my spiders brought me from a blog called comigirl ... turns out these things are genuine collectibles. She doesn't appear to available at Amazon yet (click the comigirl link to see this Cleo),…
Just sort of experimenting with some new things today---this new color, Crisp Cantaloupe, is right up my peachy-shade-lovin’ alley!! Especially with Calypso Coral! I am still fooling around with Mosaic Madness, too: I embossed the sentiment on a piece of vellum, but it didn’t stand out quite well enough, so I added a second piece behind it…..then I stamped on the back of it, too! Just a little line design from the same set! Gave it a little bit of color and hid the dimensionals! This sketch is from the Monday Lunchtime Sketch: I already know who this is going to, too!! I may be MIA for a couple of days….my college roommates are coming for a visit…all three of them! So I will be busy yakking with them over the weekend! It will be 40 years since we have all three been together at one time!!! I can’t wait! But I’ll be back on Sunday with my Paper Players card for sure! Oh….did you know that a piece of cheese, still in the wrapper, will stick to the kitchen door? It does!
Are you still sweltering, everyone? Well, except for my friends down under, LOL! I finally had a chance to play with some goodies that will be coming out in the new Holiday mini on August 4. OH BOY, there are some fun things in there to play with! I am IN LOVE with the Little Treat Box die. This die creates a sweet little box with NO GLUING! And there are lots of other dies with the set, and of course, since it's a bundle, there is an adorable stamp set to match. But let me quit yakking...here you go: I did use several new products for my little box, and I used the Facebook Colour Inkspiration #81 as my color palette: I started by diecutting the box from Cinnamon Cider cardstock and assembling it. Here's what it looks like when you fold it and insert the tabs...NO GLUING required! Then I set about doing my embellishments! I added some 'Tis the Season DSP on the front, stamped leaves from Beautiful Autumn on Crumb Cake cardstock, using Crumb Cake and Real Red inks, then punched them out with the punches from the Autumn Punch Pack. I stamped the circular element (Wrapped in Christmas) in Cinnamon Cider and Real Red and cut out the "love" to adhere over top: On the back, I added another sentiment, this time from Banner Year, and used some circular dies to cut it out. I tied it all together with some ribbons from Playful Pets and Metallic Ribbon combo packs: I can't wait to play with this little box some more...there are so many cute stamps and dies in the bundle, the possibilities are endless! And since this is NOT a card, I am entering it into the Always Fun Challenge for this week, which is Anything But A Card! Thanks for popping in today---enjoy your day and be blessed!
