T Stands for Celebrations & Second on the 2nd

 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction." Proverbs 1:7 KJV


Good afternoon on the 2nd and almost TSFT.  I am scheduling the next two weeks blog posts, because I will be away from my computer, so we will see how that works!  

We will do the Second on the 2nd first.  I will show you a post for the second time and on the second.  Something fun that Elizabeth hosts over at Altered Book Lover.  It is always fun to see a post from the past! :)

So in case you missed it here is a post I did on the Magical Masking Tape Technique from June 2013.

Magical Masking Tape Technique

I have found another great technique!  All you need are ink pads and masking tape.  On this card I used SU! inks:  More Mustard, Crushed Curry and So Saffron. You tear off strips of masking tape and ink them up on the pad, and then put the tape on the card, and then lift off. It is a  wonderful color effect for a background!  I did that with three strips. You could do a background on the whole card doing this. Here is a tutorial on Splitcoast Stampers. On this card I used SU! Thoughts and Prayers stamp set.  I also colored directly on the stamp with markers before stamping it, so I could do the leaves with Old Olive and the trunk with Chocolate Chip, also SU! I hope you try this technique, so easy!   Have a great week-end!



And now to show some celebrations I attended this week which also includes my ticket to TSFT, also over at Altered Book Lover and also hosted by Elizabeth & (Bleubeard).  I don't want to forget Bleubeard!

I attended a few celebrations this week.  One was to surprise a friend for her 65th!  I loved the purple decorations!



I didn't realize this was so blurry. Sorry, but wanted to show the purple and the flowers.





Another was to celebrate a precious couple's 60th wedding anniversary!

I saved two napkins for crafting! LOL

We drank water rather than the lemonade.

The cake was delicious.  I had white, and hubby had the strawberry.

And this is after all a craft blog so I will share the card I made for this 60th anniversary.



Thanks for stopping by.  Have a great week!
