T Stands for Turkey & Technique

 8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: ⁹ Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9

I learned another new technique today for making a background for a card.  You cut shapes and put them inside each other.   I used Su! Stitched shapes dies to cut the circles.  But, I used two at the same time so I got the frame of a circle instead of the normal solid circle.

Here is the link to the Technique Challenge on SplitcoastStampers and video for the technique:  Try a New Technique

Here is my card:

I popped up the circles on dimensionals as well as the greeting.  I put all on a color bursts background that I had.  I only used a 1/4th of a sheet of the paper, so I have three more backgrounds like this to use yet.

This technique can be done with any shapes. I hope you try this new technique.

Here are some photos from the trail and off trail from today, in reverse order!  Blogger reverses the order!  This is when I cut across to get off the trail; wild turkey right up in our yards!

As you can see, I am infatuated with these Redbud trees. The pear trees are white and they came out first, now the Redbuds are blooming.  I guess this is where the Redbud Trail got its name. :)

It was beautiful today, but I got more than just exercise from walking. It was so windy; I spent a lot of time chasing my hat that Elizabeth gave me.  I love that hat and wear it every time I go walking, but no matter how far I have it jammed on my head, this Kansas wind blows it right off my head.  Mostly I hang on to it or keep my head kind of bowed, which is good so I will see anything I might trip on! LOL

I guess I need a ticket to the party over at TSFT on Altered Book Lover.

So here is a photo from my archives:  a card I made in 2010, and it is long gone.  I wonder who I sent it to? :)

Thank you for your comments and for stopping by.  I am honored that you stopped in for TSFT.

See you next time.
