Timeless Thursday...yep it's Thursday


Well talk about dedication! I've got it and so does Flourishes design team and I don't want to name names but ( Barb Anders ) came up with a way to dedicate big time by challenging us to make a one layer card. She also took her dedication to it's peak by frustrating me big time with doing a ONE layer card??? Yikes that is a toughie.When is the last time I did a one layer card you ask? Well probably when I was taking rubber stamping lessons at my LSS. Yes I know some of you out there find this no problem but us oldies find it very difficult. Thank goodness for Flourishes beautiful sweetpea set as doing a stamp and color makes it somewhat easier. Stamp, color, add a lopsided bow , and a little phrase and you have it done.I'm not one to complain or at least not much, or perhaps a little ...OK so I'm a real ornery old cuss,but I always try and get in on the fun.
Late in saying it..but happy week fellow stampers. I'm still cleaning and tossing out. No sounds from critter pal so guess he's gone for good. Thank goodness as I want to collect all the nuts I trailed outside the house to draw him out...looks kind of nutty if you know what I mean.

Pat
one layer you went very well. In the Polish language is the song that fits this card is a "polka dots and roses." Your card and the song is beautiful
