Try Stampin' During Harvest

My husband is a wheat farmer and Harvest is in full swing on the Farm. To make it worse, it's HOT. We have temps over 100. Too hot to do anything. YUCK! I sent the kids to the pool and locked myself in my woman cave. This card was created for Try Stampin' on Tuesday's challenge #127.

What better way to think "frosty" thoughts? Make a Christmas card in July! I purchased this stamp set a while back and haven't had much time to use it. I LOVE how it turned out!

Paper ~ Night of Navy, Sahara Sand, Whisper White

Ink ~ White Stazon, Basic Black, Smoky Slate, Night of Navy, Basic Black, Crumb Cake

Trying Tuesday

Good morning peeps! Once again, I was up before the crack of dawn. My son fell out of his bed at 1:30am. I heard him hit the floor. He slept right thru the whole thing. I just don't get how they can do that. He's done it many times. He almost never wakes up. That's crazy! So, I've been tossing and turning since then. I've already been out working on a few projects and decided to sit down with a cup of coffee to see what the new challenge from Try Stampin' on Tuesday looks like. It's pretty simple, which gives me LOTS of room to create. I'm not sure if I like simple or not. Sometimes it gives me too much to think about. This one should be fun though. I haven't tackled a sketch like this one before.
