Peanut Butter and Jelly Ale, a Flower, and Some Butterflies

 It's T-Day over at Elizabeth's where we share something related to drinks.

This week I have a fun Peanut Butter and Jelly Ale from Catawba Brewery.  It is fabulous and, of course, my grocery only had the one pack.  I may have to drive to South Carolina and get some more!

I also have a  few cards to share - I made one of them a few weeks ago and can't remember if I shared or not.  The flower die on the first card is a current one from Close to My Heart.  I fell in love with it at my aunt's house and had to buy it.  The background is modeling paste added to an embossing folder and smooshed on card stock (by hand). 

The butterflies are from DRS Designs - I am having fun with them. 
Hope you are having a wonderful week and happy T-day!

Hugz,

Nancy

    PB and jelly beer. I'd try that. How does the jelly taste? I like PB beer so why not add jelly. And Nice cards too. You inspire me to try making some more as I used to make a lot of them. The white one has some gorgeous details. I hope you have a great T day and week ahead also Nancy. Hugs-Erika

    I can't imagine PB&J beer lol. I love your cards and that flower die makes beautiful flowers. I would be sorely tempted to buy one if I wasn't trying to save money. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx

    I can't imagine PB&J beer either! LOL! Both of your cards are absolutely stunning! Love the delicate look of the flowers on the top and the pretty design on the butterflies on the second! Wonderful inspiration today friend!

    I am not sure about the combination of PB & J would go with beer, but it must be great if you are willing to drive out of state to buy more.

    I absolutely LOVE your cards. Both are fabulous. Reinforces why I don't make cards. They are both absolutely stunning and I am delighted you took the time to explain them to us.

    Thanks for sharing your beer and your cards with us for T this Tuesday, dear Nancy.

    You always find the most interesting beers. I think I stick to straight beers, though. Your cards are beautiful, I especially like the one with the butterflies.
    Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog!

    Beautiful cards Nancy, I love the one with the beautiful, bold flower.
    The Ale sounds interesting, not sure if I would like it to be honest.
    For some strange reason blogger is putting your comments straight into my spam folder, along with quite a few others!

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day....

Dreams of Fall, Numbers, and a Cool Drink

I hate to admit it, but I am already looking forward to Fall!  That is also the theme for this House Mouse card I finished up today. I stamped this 2009 Turning Over a New Leaf (Monica) image on the envelope too because the current House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge #392 theme is decorate your envelope too.  On the card, I stamped the image, popped up some of the leaves and drew in some branches.  The background and leaves are watercolored with DOX ink.  Monica is colored with pencils and watercolor.   I sure wished it was Fall on Saturday when we were watching our youngest grandson at the 6U All Star State Championship. It was very hot. His team lost in the semi-finals. We were very proud of how hard they played. Speaking of baseball, I did two pages on our two All-Stars. I am linking them up to the Numbers theme at **Art*Journal*Journey* .  I have numbers in the journaling and there are numbers on their jerseys.   The All Stars cap ...

Halloween Lunch Pictures and Some Art

Happy T-day! Our favorite local restaurant is Fox's Pizza Den where they have great pizza, sandwiches, pasta and salads. They also have a Bourbon Bar.  Prices range from $7 to almost $1,000 on the bourbon and bourbon drinks.   Each holiday, the bourbon bar comes up with fun holiday themed drinks and they decorate the bar too.  A few weeks ago, we headed there for lunch and to try one of the new drinks.  Here is the holiday drink menu and my tickets to T-day over at Elizabeth's Blog where we share our fun drink related items from the week.  Of course, my daughter loves vampire books and movies so she picked the blood bag. I go more for taste so I got the Meet Your Maker - it was wonderful.   We shared a pizza and a salad.  I forgot to take a picture of the pizza, but I did get one of the salad. It had grilled chicken and potato wedges - super fun.  They make their ranch dressing on site and it is wonderful.  My husband has been know...
