T is for Treasure Hunting

 Hello friends.


Happy late T-day to my T-day buddies over at Elizabeth's blog where we celebrate anything related to drinks (anyone can join, your post has to have something related to drinks). This week, Elizabeth is showing us some really fun mugs she ran across at one of her favorite stores.

I went treasure hunting last week and found a really fun mug. My grandson and I call visiting flea markets, garage sales and thrift stores Treasure Hunting. The mug was so cute I had to bring it home. 

The inside actually sold me:

I also have a few cards related to drinks:
This was my first pop-up box, and it was done for last week's WT challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com. 

This one was made using Stamperia Alice paper and was done for a patterned paper challenge at Splitcoaststampers.com.  I left out a word in the sentiment that I will fix before sending it off. 

Hope you have a great rest of the week.

Hugz,

Nancy

    I love that name. Treasure Hunting is perfect, and you did find a great spring treasure too. And I've wanted to try one of those pop up box cards. I keep seeming to forget about them, so maybe now that your reminded me about them, I may give one a try. Yours is super Nancy. In fact both of your cards are. Have a wonderful rest of your week, and I hope it was a super T day. hugs-Erika

    I wonder what is the difference between a mug and a cup. I like your new item, but to me it’s a cup. Any name — it’s still cute.

      It is a cup, Mae - lol. I used mug generically.

    Sorry I'm so late visiting. I wasn't even on the internet yesterday.

    I LOVE that new mug. It's adorable. I love the idea of treasure hunting, too. And finding that new mug was worth it!

    I love a good pun and best POP is fabulous. Of course, I adore that Alice in Wonderland inspired card. Thanks for sharing the drink inspired cards and then new mug you shared with us for T this week, dear Nancy.

    Oh how fun it is to "treasure hunt"! Love that beautiful cup you've found and with that wording inside! The pop-up card box is so fun and I love the pop bottles with it...lots of puns! LOL Your Alice card is very cool with the antique looking characters! Thanks for the fun and inspirational post my friend!

    Hi Nancy, the Easter bunny mug is really cute and pretty - a nice treasure! But I especially love your pop-up box - WOW! And I also really like the look of the Alice card.
    All the best, Traude

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!

It's time for the New Release Blog Hop at Dude Time Doodles ! I am thrilled to show off Elmer Elf - just one of the four new images. I love them all and plan to make Christmas cards with every single one of them. Be sure and pick them up soon in the store if you like them because all the Dude Time Doodles Images will be retiring in the next few weeks - sniff, sniff! If you came to my blog from Sharon's amazing blog you can continue on to Mags who has another wonderful creation to show you. Dude Time Doodles blog hops are easy as you can hop on at any point and just continue around. Be sure and leave comments because one of the DT members is the mystery host/hostess and one of the commenters on their blog will win free images from the store. Hugz!!

A Bit of Tea, Horses, and a Cowboy

 I love when my children follow in my footsteps and beyond (only the cool footsteps, of course).   My daughter, Allie, has developed a love of tea.  She sent me this picture over the weekend of her having tea in her newly remodelled bedroom.   She was drinking Breakfast in Paris tea in one of her favorite thrift store mugs.  This is my ticket to the T-day gathering over at Elizabeth's blog .  To join us, all you have to do is have a drink related post (can be any type of drink).   The neighborhood horses have been gathering in our backyard for some reason. Our horse refuses to come up near our house because the lady who owns all these horses gives her much better treats.  They all jump the fences and visit everyone.  The mule in the picture is actually named after me because I named one of cows after the neighbor (he paid me back - lol). I gave them apples when they came on Sunday, and they have come back every day since - lol....
