Mo Digital Image

October Afternoon Pattern Paper

Copics

Stickles

American Crafts Ribbon

String

Vintage Buttons

DCWV Solid Blue

Neenah White

Sweetness stamp is from Unity

One problem I had with the stickles was that they started to

bleed when I applied it. It did not make the Copics run but it

did make the computer print of the digi stamp run. YUCK!

So I had to think of something to cover up the

worst part that run.... so hence the strawberry round cover-up.

Now I know NOT to use stickles on a computer printed piece, only

on something I actually stamped myself.

Fairy Ring

I was out working on the lawn over the weekend, moving some branches from the front yard to the back. I noticed as I was doing that, that the ground next to our large cherry tree was darker that the rest. After I moved the branches to the wood pile I went back to look at the spot I had noticed. And after further inspection I realized that it was a fairy ring. I went inside to get my camera, got on the deck and took this picture.



See, the dark ring of grass.

I went downstairs and looked them up on the computer. After reading about it, I realized that I made a huge mistake and... walked right through it. You are not supposed to walk through a fairy ring, it says to cause bad luck. But if you do, you are supposed to go back, stand in the middle, apologize to the fairies and then make a wish. So that is what I did.

Here is some more info on Fairy Rings the mythical and the scientific.
