This is a wonderful color combination, Julia! It is the colors of fall with pears fresh from the orchards and brown paper sacks. Thank you.
And I am saving you 600 calories today...I mean who can eat just one Krispy Kreme glazed donut??? Oh, but I am getting ahead of myself! I simply adore the quip from the Mayflower Coffee Shop, Chicago:
"As you wander on through life,
Whatever be your goal,
Keep your eye upon the doughnut,
And not upon the hole"
A quick search for images on the web yielded this wonderfully realistic glazed donut taken by Suat Eman from FREE DIGITAL Photos.net. I printed 9 so I'd have extras to play with (calorie free, of course). My card base is PTI Kraft embossed with Tim Holtz's retro circles. I used a napkin I found in my car...staple and torn to fit the panel and then cut my doughnut in thirds. I wrapped the edge with brown stretchy string and made a price tag...I mean who can pass up 3 4 $1????
This layout is from CPS246, which is the current week.
As for me, I'm making another espresso and grabbing a.....have a great day, all!

Oh Susan, I can smell your glazed donuts all the way over here! YummO! Way "sweet" card! Thank you for saving me the 600 hundred calories. hehe One time I went to Krispy Kreme, thought I'll go inside and buy just one doughnut. The line was long, and while you wait they give you a free doughnut. What to do? So I ate that one and bought a few more when it was my time. I was too embarrassed to walk out and not buy anything! hehe .....Cool card! TFS :0)
