Rainy Day Hanna


This adorable scene is part of the Hanna Stamps set called 'Rain, Rain, Come This Way!'. It's an adorable set of 13 stamps....the main image of Hanna holding her umbrella, plus 12 smaller stamps, including a cute little duck, an adorable worm---(yes, this worm is adorable!), rockin' boots.... SO many ways to create any rainy-day scene you could possibly think of!
This card measures approximately 5.5 inches by 7 inches....the main image in the Hanna sets is nice and big, which makes them great for paper-piecing. I've just recently begun to try this technique, and it's so much fun to create different outfits this way. It's kind of like playing with paper dolls all over again...and we could all use an excuse to act like a kid again!
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving day with their families and friends, and had safe travel to wherever you were going.... The amount of traffic on the roads was unbelievable....and we met more police cars than I think we ever have in the past. One of my three brothers is a policeman, and I'm sure he kept busy with the holiday travelers yesterday. He's one of those nice-guy policeman though...just the kind of guy you'd like to have around if something bad happened. (Hi Mike, if you're reading this!) OK, I am a bit biased....but he is an amazing man.
Does anyone have any funny food mishaps to tell about from their Thanksgiving meal? (Like still-frozen turkey, or dropping the pie on the floor?) I'd love to hear about them! I ate way too much amazing food....I could exercise non-stop for the next few days and still not wear off all the calories! I'm not going to feel guilty though....that's what the holiday is all about!
Don't forget to enter for the Hanna Stamps giveaway in the previous post....all you have to do is leave an entry telling me about your favorite Thanksgiving memory. There's still a few days left to get your entry in for a chance to win this cute sentiment set.
Have a great day everybody...and thanks for stopping by!
