Photo Saturday - near Aspen, Colorado

Off on an adventure today - my friend Eileen and I are headed to Cedaredge for the AppleFest celebration.  There's always lots of crafty  booths and great food, so it should be a fun day!  Then when I get home I'm making dinner for some out of town relatives that just be here over night.  I haven't seen them for several years so it will be good to catch up!

Have a great day!

The card - flower is from SU.  I stamped the flower in black on kraft paper, then embossed it.  I colored the stems with copics.  I then stamped the flower again on daffodil card stock, added a bit of shading to the centers and then cut the flowers out and popped them up.  The brick embossed piece is cut out along the edge to make room for the sentiment down the side.

I really need to get some stamping done, so that is my plan today.  I will have to take a break this afternoon to go get a haricut.  But, hopefully I can get a lot done before then!

Have a great day!

Awww....fall is upon us!  We took a drive up to the Aspen /Maroon Bells area yesterday - wow!  What a beautiful drive.  It was late when we got back so I haven't had a chance to look at the photos I took - I can only hope that I captured a bit of the beauty!  It was awesome.  Now, today I really need to get some chores done around the house - it's way past time for some cleaning!
