Good morning! It is Saturday morning, and you all know how I love Saturday mornings. I have my carafe of coffee with my downstairs. I am all set to enjoy some time in my stamp room. Before I do that though, I thought I would post a few cards I made with the brand new Farmhouse line from October Afternoon. I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for this line and the Holiday Style (also from October Afternoon) to come out.
Now I have a funny story to tell about this card. I made up three cards with the new Farmhouse line (I had one 8 x 8 paper pad of it that I scored from one of the first places to get it in stock). This card was my favorite. My friend, Cindy, and I have been impatiently waiting for the October Afternoon papers to arrive at StarlitStudio's front door. I was so excited about this card, that I sent it out to Cindy before I took a picture of it. I told Cindy that at least she would have a Farmhouse card arriving in the mail. I also asked her to take a picture of it. Well things
changed throughout the week. The October Afternoon line arrived at Cindy's house. The Farmhouse card arrived back in my mailbox yesterday. I laughed so hard. It had a post-it note on it from the postmaster saying I needed to add more postage to it. I ripped that card open this morning and took a picture. I will put it back in the same envelope, tape it up, and send it out to Cindy again today. She will get it eventually, but I bet she is happier to have the full Farmhouse and Holiday Style line than my card! It has been fun waiting for this gorgeous paper and well worth the wait I must say. If you are interested, jump on over to StarlitStudio for your October Afternoon needs (yes I said needs). The prices cannot be beat!
Now just because you had to listen to my silly story, I thought it was only fair to share all three cards with you! I hope you enjoy your Saturday. I am off to my stamp room! Yeah!

Lana as I was stocking the paper, knowing I wouldn't have the time to play with any of it until next week, all I was thinking were your words, 'I'm sending you a card I made with the new papers!', and I am so dang excited to be given a Lana card!!!!! Can't wait until it gets here!! and I save all your cards sweetie. Love you!!!
