Nothing Could Be Finer than to live in Carolina!

.....except during "hurricane" season!

I just completed a card from an AWESOME set called Edisto Island Cards from Svgcuts.   You can get it HERE.  Mary certainly did it again!!!!  Edisto Island is a small, charming community south of Charleston, SC.  If you read my profile you already know that I'm a die-hard lover of the beach and the"low country". This is my take on the Thank You card from this wonderful set. ( It was dark outside so I just grabbed a camellia blossom instead of a magnolia...sorry!)

I inked edges, stitched, added a pearl, used some lovely paper from K&C Company. I shaded the peach to try to give it the real look of our fine peaches here in SC.  Our freeze last night was not sufficient enough to damage our peach crops.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the next 3 weeks.  I live for the peach season....yum yum  peach butter, peach jam, peach cobbler, peach wine, fried peach turnover pies!!!

There is still time for you to purchase this set, make one of the cards, and post it on the Svgcuts Facebook page for a chance to win some wonderful AC cardstock.  Winner will be chosen Sunday evening.

Thanks...You're a Peach !

Peach pickin' time (Part 1 of 4)

       Peaches are my favorite fruit. Peach picking in the upstate starts in just 2 weeks.  Georgia is known as the "Peach State", but statistics show that South Carolina grows and produces more peaches than any other state.  You can buy peaches in the store, but it is RARE that it will taste like a peach just picked from the tree.  We actually have a water tower down the road shaped and colored like a peach. (Some say it looks like a person's "behind"). Today I'm posting a peach.  My leaf is more correct than ones found elsewhere. Download HERE for peach.  Stayed tuned tomorrow for Part 2.
