The Ferry Ride

Aug 1, 2011

When we went to Galve­ston a few weeks ago I took a few pho­tos of Ans­ley and her boyfriend Matt while wait­ing for and rid­ing the ferry over to Galve­ston. So when I saw the col­ors and pat­terns in this months Cocoa Daisy kit “‘Siren’s Call” I was thrilled, as they matched the pho­tos perfectly.

The ban­ner is cre­ated with the adorable stamp set included in this months kit. I used the ink from the “Mist and Ink” Add On kit to cre­ate the ban­ner and the red and white twine came from the “Calypso” Add On Kit.

And I was so happy to be asked to be this months Guest Designer for Vin­tage Street Mar­ket. If you are not famil­iar with this com­pany you need to check them out. They have lots of fun vin­tage items to cre­ate with as well as their own paper lines and tinted tapes (Linen is my favorite). I so enjoyed play­ing with their “Vin­tage Hal­loween Kit” and their new “Fam­ily Fun” line. Below are a few sneak peeks of the projects I cre­ated. To see more projects click HERE.

After cre­at­ing with all the fun Hal­loween items it made me really wish fall would hurry up and get here… not that the incred­i­bly high tem­per­a­tures we are hav­ing, haven’t already had me wish­ing. This week, we have the honor of hav­ing tem­per­a­tures rang­ing in the highs from 103 to 108 degrees with lows rang­ing from 79 to 83 degrees. For­get fall, bring on winter!

Hugs!
