Good morning! For my Crazy 4 Cocoa Challenge this week, I created this cute card using buttons, which is the challenge. To use buttons on your card or project. I pulled my Cosmo Cricket Material Girl stack out for this card, which had buttons on it, and then used the tiny little green buttons for embellishment, so I'm covered on the button part.
I colored this Sew Happy Cocoa digital image from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps with my Copics, and followed the Sweet Stop Sketch challenge for the layout. I just love the way this cute little card turned out, and it will be perfect for a Thank You Sew Much card. We had a lot of wonderful entries last week, so if you're a Cocoa fan, show us what you're doing with your stamps, and join all the rest of the Cocoa Crazies!!
I have been busy, busy, busy getting ready for CHA, but I wanted to share these pictures with you that Allen took this morning when he went out to feed the cattle. We had what they call a Hoarfrost last night, and everything is so frosty and beautiful this morning. He grabbed the camera so that he could snap some photos before it disappears.
The sun was coming up behind these trees in our yard, creating that pretty pink glow.
Some of the cattle enjoying their breakfast.
Messy eater, but so cute!!
The barbed wire fence around the hay covered with the frost.
Mr. Cardinal stopping by for a bit of breakfast.
Allen took these through the window of the French doors.
Not bad! Thank heaven the window was clean!! ;)
Thanks for stopping by today. I leave Friday morning for warm and sunny Los Angeles and all the splendor of CHA. Bet there's no Hoarfrost there. Have a beautiful day!
