House ... Sister ... (Redux)

I am still working on scraps (wow - 4 whole days, now!), and finishing up the cards I started earlier this week. Here is one I made with the house and sentiment I used the other day (I'd stamped enough for three cards), but I used a different scrap for the layers this time. In fact, I used both sides of the double-sided paper. Check it out:

I grabbed this piece of DS paper off the scrap heap and after I'd done the top layer, I copped out and just flipped over another piece of the paper to get the light pink layer. I did cut a virgin piece of pink for the bases, but I used both halves for the two cards, so no leftovers! Man, I am on a roll now, baby! Oh, yeah!

Too bad there are only two more markets this season - tomorrow and the following Saturday. But hey, it's a lofty goal for this Winter, along with everything else I have planned, to work my way through that heap and get to where I can put that table away. We'll see.

I did finally get my acceptance for the Holiday Show (Bauer Drive, for you local folks) for the first Saturday of December, but after that, everything I make will be inventory for the online store and stocking up for next year. Just think, if I start now (or just do not stop because it is December), I might not have to scramble in April when I realize I have one week before the first market. I get so lazy over the Winter.

Did you notice the photo? Not bad, huh? I think it is almost in focus, too! See, I am trainable, given enough clues. I thank you all for your assistance in this little matter.

ETA: I sized this one down to 25%, and it is still pretty large if you click on it, but way better than the previous ones. Thanks, again, for all the help.

Tomorrow morning, before I leave for the market, I plan to take a photo of the corn I threw out back for the squirrels. Wow - those little rodents can put away corn! Stop back for the corn report tomorrow! ;-)

    (the embarrassing thing about my math is: when i wrote that, i knew it was wrong *ALMOST* immediately...but yes...i had to think about it!!!! & then i decided it was a lot more amusing to leave it than correct it!) :)
