off she goes...

Happy Tuesday to all...we had an amazing Victoria Day Holiday weekend here in Ontario! This is the official start to summer and boy oh boy was it fantastic. I think after the summer we had last year we are going to be spoiled this year...lets hope anyway!!!! I must apologize for the lack of posts...but with fantastic weather and the kids and there schedules, not much gets done!!!
Last month Stamping Bella started to carry Mo Digital images in rubber...and let me tell you, they are super adorable! I just fell in love with this little cutie! She is called "Bye Bye Girl" She looks like she is on a mission. I thought this stamp would be great even in my daughters scrapbook! Something I also need to tackle!
I kept it very simple...colouring with copics except for the grass and the shading around her, that was done with prismas.
If you are following my blog you may know that I am making up a recipe book with all my favourite recipes. This is a favourite homemade salad dressing! Oh so good.... we had it last night on our salad and it just hit the spot! I can hardly wait until the fresh Ontario produce hits the super markets! Delicious!
I am off to get the kids off to school and then home to get some much needed chores done! I may even sneak into the craft room to create! Have a wonderful Tuesday and thank-you so much for taking time out of your day to visit my little ol blog!

Hi Christine, Glad you had a super weekend, this weather is so good isn't it?
This little image is so sweet. I picked up a stamp a few weeks ago and that is a girl with her back to me and I think it's really nice, so different, just like this one. You have used beautiful colouring and sewing (which I still have not done yet!) and the gingham paper is fab. Love it. Debbiexx

Must give that dressing recipe a try too - sounds delicious! I have my FIL visiting right now and I'm finding it very difficult to get some crafting done!

Thank goodness! An adorable card with a recipe for something to go with salad!!! I can cope with seeing greens - it's the choklit and baking that really undo me! A beautiful card. I have this image and really must use her myself! Love Lesley
