Jade's 15th

 well, September certainly flew by!  but that's OK.  i'm a big fan of fall anyway.  the smells, the colors, the food, the cooler weather and, of course, the coming holidays.... tho i'm really curious to see how the holidays are gonna pan out with the virus stuff.

My middle grandchild has a birthday this month, her 15th!!!  again, where the heck does time go?????  anyway, tho she's VERY into art - and i must admit she creates some pretty amazing stuff - i decided to go a different route and save the art goodies for christmas.  a neighbor of mine does some really fabulous embroidery.  Jade (who's having the birthday) is also into GOTH (smack my head) and she likes to bake & cook.  soooooooooooo, here's what i had my neighbor make for her....

there's an oven mitt and a small hot plate.  i filled it with a wooden spoon, a cookie mix and some cookie cutters.  i had it done in a halloween theme for that GOTH look.  i think it's just fabulous and i know she'll treasure it!

Here's the card i made to go with it.....

i die cut the coffee cup and and stamped the bats and just added the dots; i hand drew the stitched border.  she is gonna love it all!!!

 well, not much else going on.  my new furnace came and so far i haven't had to use it.  i put the deck furniture away for the season.  now to get started on christmas!

thanks for stopping by and stay well!
