Fall

I made this card for the limited supply challenge on SCS. the challenge was to make a fall card using only paper, ink and stamps. No embellishments were allowed, we could use nesties and punches. I always think these are the hardest challenges and you either need a fantastic image or fantastic paper. I chose to go with this fantastic paper from s.e.i called Morovia Sanov to make my card pop. I also did a layering of Label Four Nesties. Both the paper and Label Four Nesties are available at i {heart} papers! I also used a Hero Arts pumpkin image, outline images from Waltzingmouse, and the paper crimper. Thanks for taking a peek!

We Have A Beaver

I actually have a beaver chopping down a tree in my backyard! We have a creek that runs through our yard. It's a pretty big creek too, about twenty feet deep and wide. It all started last year when we had a huge flood. The creek is usually pretty low, most times you can see the bottom. Here is a picture from the start of last years flood. The tree Bucky is chopping down is on the right.



Here is a picture of the flood waters getting higher, and into my yard. I won't post anymore flood pics, but the water surrounded my house, thanks to all my sand bagging efforts, the water never got in my house!





Flash forward to this summer. Now we have all kinds of wildlife in our yard! because of the flood so many animals were displaced. Bambi lived in my yard most of the summer.





Remember the tree in the first picture, well, Bucky the Beaver is chopping it down. This is a huge cottonwood tree. See in between the two trees, I think that is where Bucky and his family live now. They are building a Damn.


Here is a closer look! Bucky only comes out a night, so I am not able to get a good picture of him. I will keep you posted on his progress!

A Bunch Of Cards

This is what happens when you are a lazy blogger and don't post your cards as you make them. I cant remember all of the details, paper, images, do-dads, so I am just going to post all of them in one bunch and if you are interested in details please visit my SCS site.
