life is good.....

Life is good...the weather is co-operating and I received this awesome image from a wonderful blogging buddy! I fell in love with it...and thought it would be so fun to colour! This guy is in for a feast!I so love to finish the inside of my cards...for me I think it might be an excuse everytime just to play a little more with my stamps! I used "Vintage Picnic" from Papertrey and it has got to be one of my most used and most loved stamp collection!


Have a wonderful weekend...I hope the weather is great were you are! I am off for a soccer tournament this weekend with my son. I really hope it is not too hot; not much fun for the boys!

Oh my worrrrrrrd, LOVE this!!! The string treatment is fab (gonna HAVE to give that a try), your coloring is beautiful and the grass is tooooooo cool, and I love how you paired up the OCL picnic set with one from PTI on the inside. They go great together!

Christine, what a perfect summer-image stamp--it's so cute. And coloured as fabulously as ever. Perfect choice of DP's--the gingham goes so well with your picnic theme.
So glad to hear the weather is more bareable now. It's typically springlike here.

Hugs.

What a cute image. I tried to order the PTI set because I loved seeing how you've used it, but they are temporarily out of it. They promised to let me know as soon as it comes in. I do love so many of their stamps and papers. I love to see someone get lots of use from one stamp. Great job!
