Stemmed flowers using -'Touches of Texture'!

WOW- Check out these pretty stemmed flowers!  I really like this card!

When playing with this set I was SO EXCITED to discover that the little images in this set worked as the flowers here.  They don't perfectly line up, they look more like a watercolor.  Isn't this cool though!  I know I'll be using these stemmed flowers in another card design at an upcoming class, for sure!

card stock:  Thick Whisper White, Mint Macaron, Watermelon Wonder, Whisper White

We had a fun time in Decorah racing last night.  Nathan did good.  There were alot of stock cars there & several of them didn't even make the main.  Thankfully Nathan made the main feature & started 17th, was up to 5th place & he broke a front tie rod with only about 10 of the 60 laps left to go- so that was a bummer.  It was really good racing, with the cars close together & side by side.  The track was really good- just a little dusty sitting in the stands for the feature.  Masen was happy to see us & the boys!  We all went to the pits- so that was a first, but fun for all.   We walked in the door just a few minutes ago.....it was a long trip!

Here is a picture of the boys in the trailer, as the guys were getting the car ready to go out for the heat race.  They were having a snack- pork sticks, cheese & crackers. 



Today we have a  White Family reunion on my dad's side of the family, at Lake Iowa.  Most of us haven't been together since my dad's funeral.  Most of my cousins & our kids will be there, plus my 2 uncles (their wives) & my aunt (& her husband).  We are all so looking forward to seeing each other & getting together.  The weather is suppose to be nice today- so that is an added bonus too.  Deke & I are going to pick Brayden up from his moms, so that he'll get to be with us for the day too!

After the reunion we'll come home to chore & then head to Sigourney to watch the twins be in the little kids pedal/tractor pull & then go to the street dance for awhile.  Usually several of Deke's classmates are home for the 4th of July holiday, so hopefully we'll get to see several of them. 

I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs-
SUSIE
