August Challenge Paris Tag



Here is my completed tag for the August Challenge. I followed the instructions for the challenge. I made the flower in the upper left hand corner and added a vintage earring that I broke the back off of for my metal. I also added a prima flower in the lower right hand corner with a antiqued brad. My material is the lace along the bottom of the tag and around the upper left hand corner under the flower. I added a embossed butterfly made with sheet music, added a music sheet punch border on the left side and added a strand of pearls along the bottom of the lace edge. The crackled paint is along the left side and under the flower in the left hand corner. You can see the brown chipboard underneath of the acrylic paint. I also used glossy glue dribbled around the edge of the upper flower and sprinkled it with a little diamond dust for some sparkle. I will put it up for sale after the challenge is completed.

Handcrafted Noodleboard

Actually my husband found this adorable tray in the country sampler magazine from this months issue and wondered what it was. So I contacted the lady that had her displays on it thinking it was hers and here it belongs to the country sampler to use for props, but she did tell me what it was called. An old fashioned noodleboard, the one in the magazine looked like treenware, which I would have loved to get, but is so expensive. So I went online looking and found a primitive country store on ebay that makes them custom made and in any color you want. Well it came Friday and it is just beautiful. It sits on your stove top and you can actually use it to display some of your favorite kitchen decor. I ordered mine in black & red, which was antiqued. It was a great price for a custom item and the detail to the color was wonderful. I fell in love with the one in the magazine, but this one is great. I will take a photo of it tomorrow and list it if anyone is interested in it.

Madison


Here is a photo of my Madison who is also a rescue she will be with us 3 yrs. She is a mommy's girl, she follows me all over the house, it is like she is part of my body. I love her so. I don't get many photo's of her because she is also afraid of the camera.

Halloween Card Bottle Cap



I wanted to show you the card I just made for my Halloween card swap. What do you think of the bottle cap with the button in the center.

Devon


I have to share this with my FB friends. Last night I was getting ready to go to bed and I like all the dogs to be with us in our room, so I know where they are in case of any kind of emergency and I couldn't find Devon. So I came back out into the living room and I could hear her breathing but I couldn't see her anywhere and there was only 1 small light on. So I got closer to where I could hear her breathing and here she was on the sofa laying on top of the chenille throw that she loves with the pillow on top of her body. It was so funny I had to take a picture. She is afraid of the camera so as soon as she sees it she runs to hide, but since she was asleep it was the perfect time to get an updated picture of her. So here she is. She would have stayed there all night if I would let her. She is such a good girl. She was our first rescue in 2004, her owners didn't want her anymore and didn't even give her a name, poor little girl. She is so well mannered and just adorable. We have 3 other rescues, they are like kids they all have their own little personalities & quirks and being bull headed, but we love them all. I hope you get a kick of her.

Crackled Acrylic Paint

I just watched a video on youtube on how to create your own crackled paint. I am sure there are tons of you out there that already know how to do this, but I didn't and the video made it look so simple. I can't wait to pick out my color and crackle my project.

Cell Phone & Home Phone Scam

Safety warning 90# on your telephone I dialed '0' to check this out, & the operator confirmed that this was correct, so please pass it on, This is true, & also applies to cell phones!)  PASS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW I received a telephone call last evening from an individual identifying himself as an AT&T Service Technician (could also be Telus) who was conducting a test on the telephone lines. He stated that to complete the test I should touch nine (9), zero (0), the pound sign (#) & then hang up. Luckily, I was suspicious & refused. Upon contacting the telephone company, I was informed that by pushing 90#, you give the requesting individual full access to your telephone line, which enables them to place long distance calls billed to your home phone number. I was further informed that this scam has been originating from many local jails/prisons. DO NOT press 90# for ANYONE... The GTE Security Department requested that I share this information with EVERYONE I KNOW. After checking with Verizon they also said it was true, so do not dial 90# for anyone !!!!! PLEASE  HIT THAT FORWARD BUTTON AND PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!  This has been verified on Snopes that this is true. Be careful. Please pass it on to your family & friends.
