Go Your Own Way

I loved having my Dad visit for the long holiday weekend … we fixed things (my craft knife & my door), cut down things (dead tree limbs & bushes), and installed things (light fixture, new ink storage unit, and mini-blinds).  We also made time for fun with a day visiting the family farm (Dad loves driving the tractors), the farmer's market, and a stop at Duffy's, which was filled with classic muscle cars (there's one peeking through behind us).

Tonight I had some fun with this week's Inspired by Challenge … love this fun nautical button necklace.

I started by stamping some Anchors on golden yellow designer paper.  Next I added some golden brads and then stamped some gold sequins.  I added tiny pearls to the center of the sequins for a touch of white.

I used this week's CAS(E) this Sketch (love the challenge of doing CAS with those scattered elements) and finished with a Studio Calico sentiment and some navy cardstock.
