Hi everyone, hope you all had a great weekend !!! This is another layout that I submitted for publication and was requested and not published!! eek, what is the deal , right!!!! Anyway the paper is Sassafras Lass, I always loved the cool borders they would put on the bottom of the papers!!! We were on our way to Florida and stopped in Baton Rouge, LA to tour the USS KIDD and it was closed!!!
It was so hot that day we were ready to get back in the car and continue on our journey!! I'm going to my parents again, but I'll still around. Have a good day and I'll see ya soon!!
Hi everyone~this is a layout I did for Stamping*Stationery*And Scrapbooking { Hobby Lobby Magazine} ~ it was requested but did not show up in the magazine. Has that ever happened to any of you? The paper is by Paper Studio!!
That is a male Cardinal at the feeder and I took lots of pictures to finally get a good one. He was tricky, up the tree, down the tree, fly off, come back................ but I kept my lens on him and finally got a good shot.

Thanks for stopping by today and I'll see ya soon!!!!!
Hi everyone~this is part of the work I did forJenni Bowlin Studios, always a thrill when asked to work up a new product. My idea was to use the board in a way that could be changed up. This is my Bling Board ~ vintage bling, that is!
Old crystals, old keys, key necklace with old buttons, brooches {Teresa Collins}, little beaded braclet and my "5" ~ great place to display collections! The blue round paper piece is from the new Wren collection by Jenni Bowlin **sigh**, love that paper!!!!
I added small jump rings to the board so I could use the old hanger as a holder for the Hotel Key Board!! Speaking of the old hanger ~remember this:
This is the hanger I found on my junkin' trip in Indiana~ and the shoe form, this is what I did with it~
I told my hubby my idea for this and he was able to {JB Weld} the music clip inside the shoe horn:):). This is one of my favorite pieces. I can use it all over the house for photos, cards or kid art!!
I'll show my other Vintage Hotel Key Board in detail tomorrow.
Hi everyone~Skipping Stones Designs is having a blog hop so they can show off their new stamp set called Breathtaking Butterflies :):):). It is a beautiful set with four butterflies and six sentiment stamps. Ten stamps in the set. This is the card I made ~
I used My Mind's Eye, Jenni Bowlin Studios, Smooches, May Arts trim and the Breathtaking Butterflies bySkipping Stones Designs!!!
Gorgeous images!!! They stamp clean and give you a crisp image, just what you are looking for in a stamp! We also used SSD #132 sketch, byCyndi, for our card~
OK here is the list of girls on the hop~they have done some amazing cards with this set. I hope you will hop all the way through and stop in and giveSkipping Stones Designs a hi5 for such a great stamp set!!!
Just one more thing I want to mention~Skipping Stones Designs host the usual Tuesday Sketch challenge and one random person who enters that wins a free stamp set (every week). That's pretty cool!!!!
Have a great day and thanks for stopping in and I'll see ya soon!!!

It's time for Shimelle's, 10 things on the tenth of the month, so here we go~ thought I would show you how I use old doors in my home. I will stop on a dime for an old door with vintage hardware on it!!! I'll explain as I go~
Old door painted to display Mercer Pottery on. Hubby built the awesome mantle out of mesquite wood, found on our place~
This is another old door that was spilt to make a place to hang stuff in the pantry~
Hubby made this piece out of old door pieces, for the grands to have a place to hang their ranch caps. The knobs are old door knobs! That could be my next 10 things~showing the door knobs:):)
This is one of the very first doors I re-purposed and it is still a favorite of mine. This is a small door~I'm thinking for a water heater.
Another fave of mine~this door is by Firestone Food Freezer (brass emblem on the front) ~ I painted it and use it for all things, grand kids! Side note, I paid $15 for this door , all other doors were given to me or we found them.
Two doors hinged together ( check out the hinges) Used to display more Mercer Pottery.
This door I just love~tall and skinny, painted added vintage(re production) hooks and we hang our wet towels on it..
One door turned into swinging doors ( bathroom). Check out the knobs~
This is the headboard on our bed. Three doors hinged together ( check out those hinges). Mounted to the frame of the bed and then we added reading lights ( has a toggle switch in the key hole of the door knob) very cool~hubby and my design!!
Old French doors headed to the junk yard. They are mounted on the wall (behind our TV in or bedroom). We added vintage hardware to them. I know this is 10 things, but one more:):);)
Not sure what this is, but it spoke to me. I paid $20 for it. I love to display seasonal items on it. Fun idea~ just wanted to share!!
Thanks for stopping in~this blog hop is always a fun one.
To see more collections of 10 things~ go to Shimelle's blog and happy hopping!!
