Happy Thursday, all and one!
Today's card project is one of those projects that just gets ahead of you and then swerves off the charted path ... KWIM? It all started innocently enough: I wanted to do something with this ribbon, and before I knew it, I had ... this. You're speechless, right?
Because the card has the requisite ribbon, I'm entering into the Creative Belli challenge to use ribbon on your rooster card ... the older the ribbon, the better. For all the challenging old ribbon deets, clicky HERE. And Creative Belli gals? I've had this ribbon since ... always. This ribbon gives new meaning to the word, "vintage."
The rooster also qualifies for the Pollycraft Monday Challenge, "Things with Wings." For all the exciting winged-things challenge deets, clicky HERE.
For the rest of the product info, check out the supply list, below. If you dare ...
Sooooooooo, last night the DH and I were sitting out poolside with Sheila and her DH, just shootin' the breeze whilst enjoying the clear and balmy weather, sipping some yummy Red Roosters*. A perfect South Florida night under the stars. (The Red Roosters were in honor of ^the-blue-you-know-who^).
Sheila happened to mention that she'd applied for two jobs recently: one at a local shoe store, the other at the local branch of the Palm Beach County Library.
"Well, I hope you get the one at the shoe store. It would be nice to have employee discounts on shoes," Sheila's practical DH said.
Then he added, "Of course, if you get the job at the library, we'd get free books."
There's gotta be something in the water out here ...
Thanks so much for swingin' by ... have a great day!

great card, love that ribbon! Thanks for playing in the Belli challenge
Wow! This ribbon is perfect for this rooster stamp!
That is an amazing card. If i tried putting all that stuff together it'd end up looking like something I'd feed the dog for lunch! You're too talented!
My neighbour recently brought over a bunch of books for one of my kids, and one of them appeared to have been signed out of the library in 1956. I'm wondering what the late fees would be on that...
DEB--- that ribbon-- OMG!!!! Too perfect!!! Thanks for playing along in the Belli Challenge!

Talk about matchy ribbon!
I was laughing so hard at the free books comment that my dh stopped his movie to ask what was going on. He thought this was hilarious also. Thanks for sharing this story!
