Shopping Our Stash Challenge and Blog Candy Winner

Hi again!  Our challenge at Shopping our Stash is themed May Flowers - anything floral related will work.  You can use paper with flowers on it, flower embellishments, or just whatever suits your fancy - as long as it's floral related!  Couldn't be easier.  Be sure and dig into your stash and see what you can come up with that you haven't used in a while!

This cute little Bugaboo image is SO ME!!  Instead of flowers sitting on top of my head though I probably have veggies!  Our garden is in full swing now (except for tomatoes which aren't quite ready) and I've been super busy canning.  I just finished putting up 48 jars of pickles! Yikes!  I think we're good to go on that for awhile.


Anyway, back to my card......I used some unknown DP on here - don't even really know where it came from.  It seems to multiply back there in my craft room for some reason.  I also used Pacific Point and Pumpkin Pie.  The image is from OCL.

Oh, and by the way...................We have a BLOG CANDY winner....JEANETTE!
Jeanette, I'll get your "candy" in the mail as soon as possible!
Thanks again to everyone for leaving such nice comments on my post! 

Thanks for stopping by..............and check out the Shopping Our Stash challenge and enter your creation!

I love how you did the ribbon!!!

Wow - you are a canning fool down there!!!

I'm almost ready to get my pots out to put in some herbs. That's all I plant and mainly basil. You can't be Italian and NOT have basil growing :)
