It feels like FALL today!!!!!



I LOVE FALL!!!!!!!! Today it felt like it. Tuesday, back to summer - they're predicting it's going to be 88 degrees. But I'm SO enjoying this temperature. It was a GLORIOUS day - it's 68 right now. :D I'm a happy camper!



ANYWAY. I promised some pics of the letters we did on Thursday. Here are two pictures; unfortunately, several walked out of the house before lazy-bones (that would be ME) got out her camera. The ones to the left were the more "classic" design, very clean and taylored. They were OOHed and AAAHed over quite a bit. :D The ones below, however, were also lots of fun and are going to delight the recipients very much, too! We added classic re-inkers to a mixture of Lumiere and craft paint, then embellished with the Pretties Kit, brads, ribbon, glitter - about anything "bling"-ish I could find. :D I picked the letters up at a local craft store - be careful to price them, because there's a HUGE difference in pricing between stores!
I hope you're enjoying YOUR weekend! Whether you're enjoying time with your family, maybe shopping (lucky!), or travelling, may you be blessed - and recognize your blessings!!!
Oh, yeah! TAKE TIME TO STAMP SOMETHING!!!! ;)

Hi Lori,
I'm behind on reading your posts, but I do enjoy catching up when I can. Just a question on your beautiful letters...what are they made of? Are they wood, paper mache,...I can't tell now that they are embellished?
Thanks for sharing all your great ideas!

Hi, Starqueen! :) You didn't leave me a way to contact you, so I hope you'll check back for the answer. :) The letters are papier mache - and I get them at Hobby Lobby or Joann's. :)
Thanks for reading!!!! I appreciate hearing from you!
