The second day of craft weekend started with an outing. It was a gorgeous fall day, with clear blue sky, colorful leaves, and plenty of sunshine. (I’m really enjoying the cooler weather after the summer-like heat and humidity we had a few weeks ago.)
We walked to a nearby vintage store to do some crafty treasure hunting. The store had a little of everything, and we probably could have browsed all day. I bought two vintage postcards, which I’ll probably turn into cards, some old piano music for cards/mixed media projects, and a vintage-inspired tulip poster. I’m not sure if I’ll keep the poster as is or cut out the different flowers for cards.
We stopped for lunch after shopping and then walked back to Lisa’s to get crafting. I worked on making winter cards for seniors with some paper and ephemera from the Simple Vintage Flannel Season line by Simple Stories. (All the die cuts from yesterday will be put to use tomorrow.) I’ve made almost twenty cards today, but I really want to finish up the paper pad so I’m going to keep going. But I figured I should do my blog post before it got too late.
I’ll do a post showing all the cards once everything is finished. For dinner tonight, Lisa made salad and gnocchi, and we had banana bread and tea for dessert. Yum!
Thanks for stopping by!
Those trees with all the beautiful coloured leaves on are just so pretty! I love going for walks among the tree's in Fall (Autumn) as it's such a pretty time of year. And that blue sky is just gorgeous! You're certainly getting lots of crafting done! Have fun- and keep eating yummy food! I love banana bread:-) "Sunshine"
