Keep it under your hat ATC - Think Monday - Think ATC

Here is my ATC for this weeks challenge at Think Monday- Think ATC which is purple.

The background stamps are a diamond pattern from Rubbernecker stamps and a leaf and flower stamp from Best Blossoms from Stampin UP. The Mod Hatter is from Stampendous.

And just in case it doesn't translate well - She is a gossip urging someone not to tell the "secret" she just told you and she urging you to "keep it under your hat."

But of course she wants the "secret" told.

earrings

This plate was the inspiration for our online art group's November challenge. We can do any artwork and let the colors or patterns inspire us.

I did these earrings and used the colors in the plate and the shape of the plate. I loved them so much that I just had to make a pair for myself too.

Laugh cabinet card

I had to do a class for our altered book meeting today and I choose to teach how to do altered cabinet cards with Twinkling H2Os. This is how my card turn out.

These were such fun for everyone.

We all shared with each other. Some of the stamps ,the vintage button, butterfly, flower, key and dragonfly brad were either RAKs I had from other friends or things we shared today.

I feel so blessed to have such wonderful friends!

The quote says, "Take time to laugh. It is the music of the soul."

Inspired birthday card

I love to read Jennifer McGuireink's blog and she recommended that everyone should look at Lisa Carroll's blog and see her cards. I did go to her blog and was especially inspired by this card:

So I created this similar card.

bi-fold birthday card

This is the front and inside of the first bi-fold card that I have attemped. I really like it and think that I'll be making more of these.

November recipe card

This is the front and back of my recipe cards for my altered book club. We have been swapping recipe cards for months now and I have some real treasures. I also swapped recipe cards with my online group. So now I have 3 small books of them.

This is the recipe I used for my turkey last year and it is yummy! It is from Emeril Lagassee. I plan on doing this recipe again this year for

Thanksgiving because it was a big hit with my family.
