Soldier

This is my son Quintin dressing up in his war jacket and hat after watching The Great Escape. One thing I can say about him is that he loves to make up and dress in costumes. I've taken a ton of pictures over the years with all the ones he's made. I am now starting an album with them all. I think he'd make a great costume designer.

Apple Pie

Oh wow! It's already been over a week since I've posted! I can't believe how fast time is going this summer. I am watching my nephews over the summer so I don't get to play as much so postings may be a little stretched. Here is a card we did for Card Nite this month. The theme was "Thoughts of Smells". We did a Coffee card and an Apple Pie card. I really wish you could smell the card. Everyone had a lot of fun making these cards.



Stamps: Canvas (background), Tart & Tangy
