Saturday Afternoons #4

A post dedicated to my love of October Afternoon, a manufacturing company with pretty crafty stuff!

SATURDAY AFTERNOON STORY TIME:

Being a parent means you get to answer some really interesting questions. For example:

Sophia, age 9: "Mom, why do they call it a pair of underwear when there is only one?"

Me, age 36: uhhhh...

Anyone want to help me out with this one?


Going to enter this in Casual Fridays Challenge #85 to incorporate one thing circle in the card...see that pretty button? yup!

In the above card, I used washi tape to mimic a planter for my die cut flowers. A little baker's twine is ALWAYS fun! The dies are from Papertrey Ink. The stamp is MTE MINI THOUGHTS STAMP SET. 

You will find that I don't have a distinct signature style. Check out my blog, and you will see it is true! I'm ok with that.  :)
