Happy Almost Friday!

I don't know how happy this weekend will be... Hubby's got to work on Saturday and Sunday I've got to take Danielle school clothes shopping. The worst chore in the world. I would rather clean the floors with a toothbrush. Mothers are supposed to love shopping with their daughters. It's something we look forward to. When they are older and you can stroll thru the mall with them just chatting and bonding. Nope, not me. I don't know what it is but when Danielle is shopping it is like pure hell... It's not just me. For one of her birthdays I took her to the mall with one of her friends and her friend hated it. Another friend went shopping with her and said "Danielle I love you but your ridiculous!". Truth, I swear...

So now that you know my pain for this weekend, is there anyone who needs some teeth pulled ~ I'd rather take your place...

I thought that I'd show you a card that I needed to make for a swap that I was in on my Yuku site. The swap was called 'Down on the Farm' and the perfect stamp came to mind. I've had this stamp for years... really. I bought this stamp years ago when I first started stamping. I think that I've used it maybe twice. And all it says on the stamp is Limited Edition 1995.

The stamp even gives directions *Ü* I think that's why I bought it in the first place...
The base card is Chocolate Chip (of course) that I layered with some Soft Sky and DP from TAC's Rustic Chic collection. I stamped the image and water colored it. I also colored in the wheel portion and then cut it out. Once cut out I used my hand held punch to make the little notches in the wheel so it would be easier to turn. If you look in the up close picture I added some fun flock to the sheep so they'd be fuzzy. I added the whole image panel on to the card with foam tape so you can spin it easier. The little chicken sitting in the middle of the card is a brad cover. A little stickles on the flowers and I was done. OH! The card is actually 5" x 5" ~ I had to make an envelope too. So wadda ya think??
I'm off or now. I will be back a little bit later to post more - I'll show you my sneek peek... as promised.
