Tomorrow is the Pals Blog Hop....
What do you think of this badge....it was made with the new MDS2 to custom color the flowers, apples, and ear of corn! It's so cute and easy to do! The badges were made using the Perfectly Preserved stamp set and Orchard Harvest DSP from the Haunts & Harvest MDS Collection Disk (129835).
Even at the beach I am seeing colors I want to use in future cards....It has been so much fun here at Lincoln City but so tiring too...this old lady chasing after kites...but we finally mastered it better so then it was not so bad....Also today I took Rose to the glass float place to make her own float...she did good, and we will pick it up tomorrow.......
You all know I love to do blog hops...here is a blog tour I am going to be in on Sept 6....
Rose, my niece and I, am at the beach enjoying our selves...the crashing of the waves and being able to look out on to the ocean......trying to learn how to get some new links up and running...Sudsol is a group of SU demos and I love all the fun and seeing what other come up with...there will be a blog hop coming up in Sept that I hope to be in.......
Happy stamping....Barb
