Guess what I did today? I made apple pie! Or should I say apple PIES?! I couldn't decide (are you SURPRISED?) what kind to make, so I made regular and crumble...using the apples we picked at Holmburgs.
Okay, now that is an odd looking pie, where is the pretty edge, you know the crust part that helps you lift the pie out and hold onto it? Well my pies are too heavy to hold and eat and no one except ME really likes crust and although both of those reasons are true, another reason this pie doesn't have an edge on it is that I ran out of pie dough! LOL, okay...the reason I ran out is because I was going to make one regular pie and one crumble pie, but I ended up making two crumble pies and one regular pie and you can only stretch dough for two pies just so far, even if you end up making three! LOL
By the way, both of these are very good, I couldn't decided what one to eat, so I ate a slice of the regular first... this afternoon after lunch, and the crumble tonight after dinner. YUM.
I also worked on getting my "extra" cards made up so I can put away the supplies from LAST Saturday's stamp camp! (Yes, sadly they are still out.) I always cut an extra card or two just in case someone needs a re-do, and then after stamp camp if I feel like stamping I will leave everything set up and go around making those cards up to have on hand. Well, we went over to the fall festival in town after stamp camp, so I left it until Sunday, and we went apple picking on Sunday, so I left it for Monday, but I haven't been feeling well (bad cold) and between errands, appointments, and work, it stayed out waiting for me. Twice I almost just put everything away ... throwing those card kits into the scrap bin...but I didn't. I am so glad I decided to make them because I was feeling creative today. I will show you my Ornament card...here is the original.
Got this Idea from Heather S., I will have to find out how to spell her last name ... a Stampin' Up! demo friend of mine who is in Jan's Stampadilly group. This is the card we made at stamp camp. Here is what I made today, using basically the same base with a few new supplies:
Here is a close up of the ornament:
I just sponged over my felted paper!!!! Check this out:
did the same for the background paper here, and added crystal effect to make the ornament shine:
How cool is that?!
I will show you the "Turkey" re-do tomorrow! Have a great night
