Day 174 ~ Just Peachy

It is still raining here in Minneapolis and although we need the rain desperately I am a little tired of it. If you live in Minnesota and you love Cosmo Cricket make sure you sign up to take one of the classes that Lindsay is teaching on September 16th over at the "Scrapbook Shop" in Circle Pines. It is going to be a mini album using the christmas papers "Jolly by Golly". I called last night and talked to Rhonda and am all set to go. Stay tuned to my blog for some exciting news from me regarding this class.

Today's challenge over at "365 Cards" is called Just Peachy and we are to create a card using Peach as the dominate color. Speaking of peachy I bought a whole crate of white peaches at Costco yesterday. YUMMY. You know I discovered that I don't really own a lot of peach colored papers. Luckily I found two papers both from the Graphic 45 Baby and Bride collection that would fit this challenge. I added a little bit of orange and then the pop of pink in the flowers in the girls basket. I think this will pass inspection by our leader Pam.

So it is Friday and it promises to be a busy weekend. My son Justin leaves at noon today to spend the weekend with his best friend Cassie and Aleks. Today I am running a few more errands as it is time to renew my car tabs, I also have a couple coupons to use at Archivers, and then I am running to Michaels to look for a new MS punch that I am looking for. Saturday I am working at Anchor Paper which is always fun and Sunday will be my day to catch up around the house. What do you have planned for the weekend?
Enjoy~

details:
paper: neenah natural white linen, graphic 45 baby and bride collection
ink: ranger distressing ink vintage photo
accessories: k&co. paper ribbon, tim holtz adage ticket, tissue paper flower with glimmer mist, basicgrey button, photo from my collection, mark richards glitter dome crystal stickers

  9. what a lovely vintage card, Sherry! I love the dress on the girl, it is so luscious. Hope all your running turned into what you were hunting! I've got a quiet house, DH's off fishing (his passion) and both my boys are crewing at the middle school camp for our church district. The sound (not) is golden here.

    Happy weekend
