Community Farm

One of the first things we did upon arrival was join the Winter Green Farms Community Farm. For 19 weeks we will get a box of veggies every Friday, which is about the time we're going to be in Oregon, and our first box was this past Friday. It's been an unusually wet and cold spring here so we knew the first box was going to be a little sparse, but the taste is absolutely fantastic and the weather has warmed this week so we're expecting the boxes to be fuller and fuller. We're having big salads every night and last night we had lettuce wraps using that lovely green Boston lettuce you see on the right. Yummmmmmmmmy!

Paula & Diana's Flat Adventure

I brought my flat crafting buddies, Paula and Diana along with me to Oregon and boy have they been having fun. Here they are packed in with my knitting and crossword puzzles for the long drive.

We camped at Red Rock Canyon State Park in Southern California the first night.

We enjoyed a lovely breakfast of granola bars and coffee while we were treated to a spectacular sunrise.

A stop at our favorite fruit stand, Casa de Fruta had us making a fast getaway after the girls started climbing on the antiques.

We had a relaxing evening during our visit with friends in Los Altos

There always seems to be a plumbing or water leaking problem when we arrive in Oregon, so they donned their Hazmat suits and masks to help with the cleanup.

Yesterday, they put on their hard hats and helped with tree trimming so we could find a window for the satellite dish.

More adventures to come from Flat Paula and Flat Diana as the summer progresses.

These are all mostly QDDL's from various Club Scrap digi collections.

We're Almost There...........Oregon Bound!

Looking forward to cool temperatures, walking along the beach and stuffing ourselves with seafood!

Club Scrap Die Cut BlogHop

It's time for a Club Scrap Bloghop, Yeah!!!!! For my project, I used the Tim Holtz Ideology butterfly die with Milestones purple paper for the butterfly skeleton and Raku print for the filler of the butterfly wings. I also used a homemade polymer clay bead colored with Perfect Pearls and some beads and wire from my stash for the body of the butterfly.

Here is the order of the hop:

GrungyMonday6

Well, I put it off as long as I could and then decided to combine this challenge with our May Lottery challenge over at PAO. This week we're in the wayback machine and using one of Tim Holtz's 12 tags of Christmas as our foundation. I used some white paint along with the Weathered Wood and Frayed Burlap Distress Inks. I made a packing tape transfer of a vintage image and added a TH phrase stamp and tissue flower topped with one of my own handmade dictionary paper flowers. Hop on over to Studio L3 to check out all the cool entries this week. mmmm......I'm having trouble adding links today and will need to troubleshoot.....sorry for the bother.

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day to both my mom and my grandma. Love this picture of us standing around gabbing and drinking coffee together in my mom's kitchen.

And a Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there. Have a great day!

I am a Butterfly

Club Scrap's new May kit Papillon is just spectacular. I was cruising the picture files and came across these favorites of me and my dad in Golden Gate Park in 1966. I immediately thought I looked like a butterfly flitting to all the flowers in the garden. What a perfect set of photos for this quick drop layout that came with the digi kit. Enjoy your Wednesday everyone!
