Front and Back

When my stamping group met in DesMoines this summer Annie, who lives in Canada could not be with us in body but she was sure there in spirit.  She sent a packet of goodies for everyone.  In my packet was this stamp off of front and backs.  I had seen these before but never had made one.  Oh it was fun!  It took me forever to really figure it out.  Each time I thought I had it figured out I realized what I had done wasn't going to work.  In time I got it right and really like how it turned out.  I colored her with my Copics of course and used some old paper from my stash for the wallpaper. 

Ok, you have listened to me complain all summer about the heat.  It has finally broken and we haven't seen 100 for awhile now.  In fact we broke a record for a low this last week.  It was 48 degrees!  This morning when I walked at 7:30 a.m. it was 52 degrees.  It gets warm during the day and cools off at night.  Perfect!  The rain is another story.  We got a quarter of an inch the other day but that is all we have had other than ten drops here and 5 drops there since mid June! 

We are in the midst of getting ready for a garage sale.  Our neighborhood has an annual sale each year and I have always been working.  This year we can participate.  If you want any SU stamps let me know and I can send you a list of what I have before the sale on Thursday.  I also have some Stamping Bella stamps. 

Oh!  Tomorrow is the first day of school here.  I plan to be finished with my walk so I can watch the kids walk up to the school.  It seems weird that I won't be there.  I have to admit I will miss the excitement of the first day and the little faces eager to be back and see their friends. 

Until next time, happy trails to you...
