it's shimmer time!

my photography skills do not do justice to these beautiful shimmer papers! today's the day for a muse's stationery release. i've used the mango damask shimmer paper with the paprika notecard. happy thanksgiving is new sentiment as well a the white polka dot ribbon. i also used the solid pumpkin and vine border from past releases. there is some glitter on the vine that you can't see from the pic. i decided to make the pumpkin green, i just love those funky colored funny shaped ones:) i hope you all have enjoyed seeing all of the a muse's peeks and have been inspired!! ohhh, don't forget the latte pearls here too!

fall a muse bouche



well, fall is here and i've been a bad blogirl :( but wait! here's a sneak of a muse's upcoming release. you are going to die and forgive me:) new paper and stamps and twinkle pearls!! the paper has the most beautiful shimmer, here it is in solid and damask espresso. WHAT DAMASK... isn't it gorgeous?! the new stamps are the oak leaves, acorn and the sentiment i took a class with debby schuh and had a bit ribbon left over from that project. i think it looks pretty:) well, my little 4th grader has a part in the high school play so, i've got to run him to rehearsal. don't forget to check with the amuse gals to see what they have created!

sweet tooth?

well, maybe for a salmon:) i know a bit unconventional. i live on the edge of the universe when it comes to mail delivery and i haven't received all of my goodies to share yet. soooo...i came up with this. a muse has the new, fantastic blackberry and paprika notecards. i just love these yummy colors! i also used the new black polka dot sheer ribbon and the new BITE ME! i'll be using that one alot!!

this card reminds of my dad, he was an avid fisherman. if you ever meet me, you'll probably never believe that as a kid/teenager we camped my WHOLE summer vacation up in the okanogans. if we weren't doing that , we were fishing in the "hole" in deception pass on whidbey.
looking back i have great memories, at the time it drove me crazy! all of my friends were off doing what i thought was normal girly stuff:) a few years back, i was telling my sil about my childhood, i thought she was going to have stroke, couldn't wrap her brain around the fact that i pretty much lived like a park ranger. a childhood i think she wanted;) now, i love lipgloss and my nordy's but i can clean and bait a fish with the best of them:)

thanks for letting me share a muse and a memory!
