~ What’s Brewin’? ~

September 24th, 2009 by Holly McMillen

Good Morning, friends!

Well, It’s another There She Goes’ release blog hop!  I missed out on yesterday’s festivities as my mailman was holding my stamps hostage.   I really think he is a closet stamper :).

If you’ve arrived here from Gretchen’s blog, then you are spot on!   If not, please go back to Dawn’s blog to get the full show.   You’re going to want to see all of these, trust me!

Jessica is brilliant.   She has put out two new sets this month that work great individually, and even better together!   The first set (which previewed yesterday) is Home Sweet Home.   The set includes two different fireplaces and a bevvy of accessories to go with them.   Then tonight we are previewing the new HSH Halloween additions.    I have to say, I am so not a halloween person, but this set has me very excited!   The images are just adorable and the sentiments, too!

Now I am going to toss out a disclaimer here.   My husband and I took my son out to celebrate his 17th birthday this evening before I had a chance to stamp.   I have to say, even with just one margarita under my belt, I have a difficult time stamping! LOL

I kept thinking my ”room” was crooked (margarita talkin) and then I realized that the fireplace is slightly lopsided (on purpose!).   It kinda bugs me that I didn’t realize that before I made my “room”, but what the heck.   Just imagine this fireplace in a dilapidated old house…. note the cobwebs!

Colors: Basic Black, Only Orange, Basic Gray, Paper Studio dp

Ink: Versafine Black Onyx, copics, Brilliance White

Accessories: ribbon, ribbon punch, circle punch, word window punch, scissors, dimensionals

Ok, now off to Jackie’s blog for some more fun and mayhem.   Thanks so much for stopping by!   Don’t forget…. TSG is having a sale right now, so hop over there, too and check it out!

Blessings!

    Well Holly, I think the crooked room has character! It reminds me of the vortex house we went to one time in Montana! That place creeped me out, but yours is cute. :)

    Love it! The pumpkins are great and the spiderwebs in the coner give it that “creepy old house” feel. Your coloring is great, especially after a margarita- LOL!!! Fantastic ribbon!

    I wish I had had the stamps for my creations because I am loving this. The cobwebs are perfect. I may try a stiff drink next time. It will help calm my nerves and if it would make me stamp like this it would be awesome..Great job.
