Coloring Down the Lines-So Saffron and More Mustard

Wow, It's Wednesday again! Where does the time go?  You've just come from Amandas blog at www.ourcraftyplaydate.blogspot.com.  I know I will love it, as always.  Ok, I know my card is not all stampin up-the emboss folder if from cricut, but I just love it.  Reminds me of the Longaberger symbol they use on their pottery.  I am always looking for ways to use the aluminum tape, too.  That's what's behind the punched blossom.  And I topped it off with the little lace flowers.  Tell me how you feel...  Now on to our talented Helen's blog at www.bluedahliadesigns.blogspot.com.  She effortlessly puts out beautiful ideas.  Thanks for visiting out hop once again.  Carol Smith

Weather Hop

Happy Thursday!  Should be better than yesterday, which was our topic of discussion in our chat.  We decided to post our backyard accumulations so we could see where the storm went.  You've come from Amanda's blog at www.ourcraftyplaydate.blogspot.com.  She lives in Burr Ridge, IL and I live in Schellsburg, PA.  We got 8 inches in about10 hours. This is taken from my back deck.  It is beautiful on the trees.  Now we go to Liz's house in Winchester, VA.  www.lizzystamps.wordpress.com.  Let's see how much they have.  Thanks for visiting, and I hope you are enjoying our little tour.  Carol Smith
