A Monday Off in the Honeysuckles

Yes, today I am off and have gotten some errands done that were not done on Saturday or Sunday. Oliver came over with his mommy for a pedicure and LOVED his wool Trader Joe's bone.....


He loved it so much we had trouble getting him out from behind the dining room table to do his "nails" - he scampers fast...


I also got a "project book" put together. I had picked this up at my favorite stamping store and wanted to get it done sooner than later. I need it for the "treasure box" and clue ATCs.

I started out using Claudine Hellmuth Studio gesso and paints on the chip board.


I then applied decorative paper with my trusty sticky back tape.

Applied the paper.... and ribbon. Love this ribbon that I bought which was "defective" with the paint runs! Kool....

Added a fabric flower ....

If you haven't noticed ---- I am rushing this post since I have to eat a bite and get ready for early doubles indoor tennis tonight. I do have photos of the back of the project book, the inside covers, yada yada, but you get the idea. I did manage to get my clip art organized last night. Will try to check in with you tomorrow after my workout with my trainer.... ugh. A little photo of Oliver on my lap always help the "medicine" go down better. Maybe he could sub for me at my trainer's place???? What a concept.
