T Stands for Time for Crafting

"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood but... against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Ephesians 6:12
                  (Week 3 Scripture Memory for Revive Our Hearts Esther Bible study)


Now that the big project of 39 challenges for Dare To Get Dirty is over for another year, I have been trying to concentrate on scrapbooking again.  I am so far behind. We have scrapbooking challenges on Splitcoaststampers, too.  In case you don't know by now, I spend a lot of time on the Splitcoaststampers community.  There is so much inspiration on there for whatever you do, cards, scrapbooking, art journaling, Bible journaling, and all kinds of other 3-D projects.  Plus there are so many chat forums, tutorials, swaps, and just friends on there.  Between that and blogging, I have made so many cyber friends!  I am talking about you!  :)

Today, I will show you what I have been scrapping:

I used a lot of stash for these pages, that has been in my stash for more years than you can imagine.
That giant ampersand is from a plastic drawer of chip wood letters, as was the WSU letters.  Only, the ampersand is sponged with Pistachio Oxide ink.  The panel under the photo and the TH die cut letters are also sponged with that oxide ink.  I thought it matched that scrap of ampersand paper I found in my stash! The camera, ice cream cones, and brad were from a kit I got at Scrap Expo last Summer, from Scrap That.  

  I didn't ever finish showing you photos of my Colorado trip.  This is the day we actually went into Rocky Mountain National Park.  Here is a selfie of us.

We were going to go hike around Bear Lake, but the all the parking lots in that direction were already filled, and they were turning away tourists from going any further in that direction.   Don't go in July, as that is their busiest month.  We usually go in May or September, and had never run into this problem before.  So, we went another way and visited the Alluvial Falls which we never had done, before.  We walked the Alluvial Fan Trail, which is noted as Easy.  It was, but hard enough for us.  

A dam break is what caused all of the debris.  The boulders are huge that you walk around, some as big as cars.

Because I am joining Bleubeard & Elizabeth over at Altered
Book Lover for T Stands For Tuesday, I am posting this photo.  We may join her and other bloggers for TSFT is  we post a drink related item in our post. :)

We ate at the Other Side Restaurant at Estes Park, when we came down out of RMNP that day.
Hubby had a club sandwich and I had their wonderful special of strawberry & shrimp salad.  You can see, I pushed aside the cucumbers because they don't agree with me, and I forgot to tell them to hold them. We also had our water in a lovely decanter and fancy glasses, and I had homemade rolls with my salad. 

Thank you for stopping by for a look.  Happy T Day and have a great week.
