Hold The Tomato!

When I was a young girl, my mother gave me my own sewing basket. It had all the necessary items...scissors, needles, thread, and of course, pin cushion. I still have that sewing basket after all these years, and I use the pincushion often when working on projects.

Today's card is inspired by all things crafty. Here it is:



This card uses stamps from a very limited release of The Saltbox Studio. I think these stamps are too stinkin' cute, and I wish they would have gotten a broader release. If you think so, too, maybe you can drop a word to Linda at Amuse and see what she can do for you! ( sorry, Linda!) I used Honey Pie papers from Cosmo Cricket. I LOVE that paper company! Their papers just make me smile! I'm including a new link ( because I can...bwa ha ha ha ha !) to Cosmo Cricket so that you can see their new lines. Oh, that Earth Love paper will be mine, and The Boyfriend, too!


Here's a close-up of the image. Can you see the little pearls on top of the pins? I KNOW! I love them, too! But you haven't even seen the sentiment inside the card yet, so here it is:

A day stitched in prayer rarely unravels. How sweet is that? I'm sending this to a friend I've been praying for this week who is struggling with job related decisions.

Thanks for popping in to the cafe today! By the way, have you heard the news? Pumpkin Spice coffees are back at Starbucks! I think I'll grab my favorite coffee beanie from Old Maid New and head over there after I drop Sam off at school today.

Stop back tomorrow for a fun project that alters products you can buy from a big box store. I'm namin' names, folks, so that you can buy them, too!
