No Place Like Gnome.....

So, I got this PKS set bad haven't used it to its (or my) potential. The challenge this week over at Peachy Keen Stamps is 'Anything Goes', so it seemed like the time to haul out my husband's favorite image and make him a little Christmas present.



I will spray some sealant on it because it will go out front in our darden with his gnome 'village'. My grey shadow looks more blue in my picture, but I have never tried stamping on wood before.....I also kept it pretty plain because I want it to blend in with the gnomes and their homes in the garden!

A Peachy Keen release

PKS had their release party on Saturday....and, I made it for a change! Woot woot!

Besides showing off their new releases and their awesome talent, it is always fun to chat with all the fun crafters who enjoy PKS!!

They also post a couple of challenges.....and I got busy and tried my hand at them.

Challenge #1 - use only two colors on a Fall/Halloween card.....yikes that isn't really as easy as it sounds.



Challenge #2 - make a three dimensional project (that isn't easy for me either....lol)



But, I gave the challenges the "old college try"......what do you think? I really like my scarecrow table decoration....think I will be making a few more to put with some cookies I will be giving to some neighbors! I need to work on adding a little to my hay bale though! LOL

For the Fun of It!

I can say I made this card because I wanted to. Not because I NEEDED to!

Well, I did need a card, but I could have picked through my stash....instead, I saw the challenge this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches and knew what I wanted to do!

So, here it is!

COF

Time for our monthly post.
Not sure I have told you about the Crafters of Faith ladies, but they are the best.....always encouraging and handing out good advice!  I really need both of those things!  I do love Jesus, but am having doubts about my home church.  I need to find a different one and that is a daunting undertaking.
Our theme this month was "anything goes.". So I pulled out a Verve Stamp and headed to last weeks Mojo Monday sketch.
Thanks for stopping in!
