Evenin' little lady.....


That's a new one huh? It's been a long time since I've posted in the evenin' hours. Oh well, gotta keep you hens on your toes. Never know what this ol' chick is up to!

Guess where I've been? Well, I just got back from a cruise to the Bahamas. It was just a GIRL cruise with the Lil' Chick, my Ma, my Sis, SIL and a good friend of hers. What a GREAT time we all had. I gained FIVE - uh huh - FIVE POUNDS!! And I enjoyed every minute (make that bite) of it!! Bwah-ha-ha-ha-ha! The Lil' chick said we ate like we were goin' to the electric chair! LOL! Seriously, they must feed you a dozen times each day and it's a bottomless pit! They just keep servin! Ahhhhhh HEAVEN!! *snort* We did have a really good time and I still can't get over that water. Oh my, it's like an aquarium! Just beautiful!


Ok on to my card..... This little guy is from Dude Time Doodles and his name is Fred Farmer... Oh boy, do I ever LOVE that smile of his. Pffft! I'm using this card for this week's FTR #22 challenge over at the Catered Crop. Wanna play along? Here's this week's recipe:

  • Colors – Warm Fall colors: gold, yellow and green
  • Papers – Kraft
  • Stamps – hearts, sentiments
  • Color Mediums – distress inks
  • Embellishments – lace, thread, buttons, gems, beads, glitter
  • Techniques – distress, tie a bow
  • Tools – Die cuts (hearts and flourishes), rounded corners

I've highlighted those ingredients that I've used in my card above. You're only required to use just one ingredient from the above list, or you can use as many as you like. Then link your card up over at the Catered Crop. You just might be the CLUCKY winner! Tee-hee!
