~Sugar Plum~

The party is still going on at The Craft's Meow and there are some fun challenges to pick from.




I found the perfect colors to showcase the punny sugar plum sentiment that makes me giggle.



Yes, I'm 42. 




.... I still giggle. ;)



Maybe it has to do with having my three daughters around me all the time.


Lotsa giggling goin' on.




We're kinda silly.




Either that, or we digest too much sugar.




Ask anyone that knows us. ;)

I was drawn to the lavender/plum,greens and browns in this picture.

Also, the clean, white tables.



There is no way you would see clean white tables if I was planting. There'd be dirt everywhere.


How is there not dirt everywhere?




Anyway, I just had to ink up sugar plum!


 Isn't he cute?



While I'm letting it all hang out there (I don't know if it's sugar or what)...


I just have to share that these stamps 





smell 



GREAT.


I don't know what it is...but I am addicted to their smell.


They smell fruity.


Not just this set...but all TCM sets I've gotten so far.



Is it just me?


Any other Craft's Meow fans appreciate the yummy smell?


 

 I figured this was the post to share my addiction.




If you have TCM stamps. 


Go smell them.



Right now.



Slight sniff.



Come back and confess. 


Don't let me think I'm the only one, ok?

It's great to giggle, I still giggle. And I think the stamps smell good too, something about the photopolymer. What a cute card here, I love your colors, and great stitching. Thanks for playing at The Craft's Meow!
