eP exclusive sneak peek and...

...celebrating Joy's birthday!!
Yep, today is Joy's birthday and we are celebrating eP style!! Today eP is releasing an
exclusive OCL stamp set called Hangin' Loose with Kona! Oh man, this set is adorable and so fun to color and play with!

Blue is Joy's fave color so I had to use blue in my card, I chose paper from MME Penny Lane. The plate of cupcakes is from the OCL Star's Slumber Party set. I was having a hard time with a birthday sentiment so, I grabbed my label maker and printed it out, ding-ding-ding! Now, I'll be able to create my own sentiments with it, sooooo excited, LOL!! I left the peeling on the back and popped it up with dimensionals.

I've known Joy for several years and I got to meet her a couple of years ago at our retreat! She's as sweet as she can be and so much fun to hang out with! HAPPY BIRTHDAY my Joyful one, love you to pieces!! Head on over to Joyfuls blog and wish her a Happy Birthday!

I thought I'd share a couple of flowers from my yard. The top one is a golden iris, the bottom is a Stella D'Oro Lily. The lilies bloom all summer, that's very nice, I love flowers that will bloom all summer long!

I want to show you what mom gave me, she doesn't remember where she got it, she said probably from a yard sale years ago. (Am I being to chatty, I can't help it, it's been awhile since I posted, LOL!!)

Oh my, look at the embroidery work someone did on these silverware keepers, I'm not sure what they're really called, I'll call them silverware keepers! You unsnap them and unroll them. There is a slot for each piece of silverware to slip into! I'm guessing they used to make them for newlyweds?Here's a closer look at the snaps, the strip with the snaps is hand sewn on, so nice and neat!
Here's a shot of the inside.
