We visited Lynette Wednesday, November 13, 2024 and had a great day! For lunch, we took a walk to nearby Chipotle's for Burrito Bowls.
Back at her house, she helped me decide on a simple Christmas card design.

We were impressed how easy it was for Lynette to die cut the faux postage layer in her Cuttlebug. The stencils are etched with text on each showing the order to be used. Made it easy to add the ink with blending brushes.

We used Gina K inks: wild dandelion, sweet mango, warm cocoa and grass green.
On our second postage collage, we decided to add color to the backgrounds of each rectangle. We used the Waffle Flower Postage Collage Blocks Stencil.
Then we stamped an image in Versafine onyx black on top.
For the background ink blending, we used Gina K inks, starting at the bottom and working our way up...
bottom: jelly bean green
middle: wild lilac
top: light orchid.
When we were done stamping, Lynette taught Don and me to play Mexican Train Dominoes. It was a lot of fun. We played a few rounds and I think we'll play again next time.
Lynette always puts out a beautiful charcuterie board with some delicious wine and last night was no different! We enjoyed the food and listened to music and then showed her many pictures from our recent vacation. It was a lovely day!
Thanks for visiting!
Peace and all good!
