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

  3. 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

  8. 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

  10. 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.

  11. 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!

  16. 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....

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Bear-ied In Paperwork

 Back again, with a card for this week's House Mouse & Friends Monday Challenge ( HMFMC#424 ).  This week the challenge is Anything goes with the option of scraps of paper. I took the option literally and added scraps of paper on my kitchen counter.  I needed a thank you card for someone who has been helping us organize A LOT of papers.   I stamped the image (House Mouse Gruffies Bear-ied in Paperwork -2007) using CTMH Black, then coloring the image with Daniel Smith Watercolors.  I drew in an extra paper or two so that I could make one of them a Thank You paper - it is the top right and shaded pink.  Thanks for visiting, Nancy
