Green Birthday Motorcycle

Good afternoon from cloudy, overcast, cool and wet SW MO! Last night I heard on the news 8 of 12 days we have had RAIN!!!! It's time for some drying out. I think it's suppose to get in the 90's on Saturday...now it will add humidity to the air and I'll have to turn on the a/c. What a difference a day makes.

Rose Treat Box

Good afternoon ladies. Hope your Wednesday is going great, almost to the weekend. It's another warm, cloudy and windy day here in SW MO. Possible storms tonight. If you are in any of the storm paths, please stay safe.

Today, I'm sharing a treat box I made a couple weeks ago. Very simple, but yet elegant! The Rose makes it so elegant, I think. But then how "elegant" can you get for a simple box? Well, if you use your SU Polka Dotted folder with the SU Bag with Scallops ( whisper white c/s), you can get pretty "elegant". I added a rose made with the 5 pedal flower punch (Orchid Opulence c/s and the same for the speckles using Itty Bitty Backgrounds) . Use some Old Olive c/s for the leaves with the SU Little Leaves Sizzlet die......Stamp a sentiment with Tiny Tags on Whisper White c/s with Orchid Opulence Cl Ink and attach with some DMC floss .....and there you have it.

That's it for today.......Thanks so much for stopin by today. Have a great evening.

Happy Stampin!!

Roses and Candles

Good afternoon ladies. Hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday. It's hot and muggy here in SW MO today. Expecting more storms tonight and every day til the first of the week. Hopefully, we won't get blown away with the winds. We did have some scary moments last night, but all is well. The storm stayed about 10 miles to the north of where I am. We need to keep those effected in the OK City tornados in our prayers.

Today, I'm sharing a box that I made last night with a punch rose on the top. Since the roses are all the rage right now, I just had to jump on the band wagon. I surprised myself that I could actually make/design a box that I wanted for several uses. One being, candles..hence, the title today....Roses and Candles. I wanted something I could put candles in and still use my SU products.
