I remember growing up I watched Bewitched, I can't remember when I saw Leave it to Beaver, I think I lived in the states by then so I was older. But I remember loving Samantha's cute clothes, her little peddle pushers, tops and dresses and I thought when I grow up I want to dress like that. Well styles are kinda like that with capris and all, but I sure never look as cute as she did.
I also don't dress up all fancy like Mrs. Cleaver, although I found the cutest dress at Steinmart and it is a weird hem, past the knees on the front but then it goes ankle length on the back, I ran errands today and I got so many compliments, so I am pretending that they were thinking like I did when I watched TV…hey I want to dress like that.
Anyway, I have a couple swaps that are due, and this set in the holiday catalog named "Christmas in the Making" called to me when I saw it…I mean open line, coloring, and well the images are adorable. I picked this set to use for the swaps and here is my card. I saw a cute card on Pinterest by Janneke de Jong, she did a different set, different colors etc. But I loved the layout so thanks Janneke for the inspiration.
I won't put a supply list because you can't order any of these items yet…..well that is kinda wrong, you can totally order these items in your Starter Kit, the ultimate bundle of all, I would love to have you join my team, no matter where in the United States you live. I have Di's Country INKers all over the states, so you would fit right in.
Well Tuesday I go for an EGD to get this hiatal hernia figured out. I am ready to be better, this has been going on since February, when my doc said it was allergies. I can't sleep worth a hoot, I need to sleep on an angle and that is just not comfortable and this throat nonsense is for the birds. I am hoping it goes off without a hitch and they figure the next step to see what kind of surgery I might need.

The card base is a standard card 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" folded in half.
The black gingham DSP – 3 1/2" x 5"
The whisper white – 3" x 4 1/2"
