You're My Favorite Season

DH and I were out and about yesterday so we went to Wal-Mart, of all places, to get some steps in and help in his recovery.  We saw this awesome little herb drying board!

I told DH I can make that!  I was getting out my camera to take a picture of it and noticed the price $4.88.  Holy cow, why would I want to make this when I can buy it ready made for $4.88!

So I bought it - I might make some as gifts in the future, but I need a way to hang the herbs I grow, up to dry now and that's CUTE!  The way I do it now, it to tie them up with twine from my craft room and hang them on hangers in the garage - sooooo ugly!  

Now I have a stylin' way to hang my herbs!

(I need to get a life!)

Anyway, I saw the new challenge over at Casology - Season, and thought I can make a card for that, and here it is!  The sentiment is from Concord & 9th Lace Leaf and the stamps are from a 1999 Stampin' Up set that I bought used at a garage sale when I first started stamping a couple of years ago.  

I picked my favorite "season" out of the row and colored that one only.  I used Archival Ink in black and Zig Clean Color Markers with water and a paint brush.  I used one of the other stamps in the set to make a coordinating envelope, you can see part of it below in the pictures on the bottom right.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Here are a few more pictures:

I will enter this in:

and the rectangle is my sentiment's shape.)
