Chintz Coaster

Published by Jerri Kay at 10:13 pm under Projects in General

cha-sample-pictures-023-copy.jpgThis is the last piece in the Afternoon Tea series.  I was out in appointments most of the day and wasn’t able to get a picture of the entire ensemble.  We’re headed out of town for the weekend, I’ll try to get the picture on Sunday when I return and get it posted. 

Yesterday was my youngest son’s 16th birthday.  It’s hard to believe my baby is 16 years old.  I made a card for him and hope to get a picture of it before we leave.  I struggle with masculine cards, they are so difficult for me.  This one passed my hubby’s inspection and my son liked it.  If you struggle as I do with masculine cards and are looking for inspiration, stop by tomorrow and take a peek at the card I made.  If there’s enough interest, I’ll create a template and post it.  When I return, I plan on working on the template for the tulip purse and the monogrammed purse I featured last week and hopefully get those posted within the week.

    Hi Jerri -

    This is just beautiful. It would also make a nice centerpiece for a card.

    Enjoy your weekend!
