Cheeseheads Win!!

- My light SH!NES
- Oxymoron

Had fun CAS-ing this lamp. Paper piecing is what it's called. Although it's not 'stamped' the idea is to stamp the image on plain card stock, then again on a patterned paper, cut out the patterned paper and piece it on the full stamped image. I used some beads for the pull string. Oh, just thought of something, could have sponged a 'ray' of yellow ink casting out below the shade, as if the light were on! That would be cute!! Simple card. Perfect for some FuN MaiL!

Oxymoron, the odd part, Illinois plates with a Green Bay Packers frame!!!! Well, not really!!! Packers are going to the super bowl!!! Yippee!!! Since we live in Northern Illinois, far enough away from Chicago, we've been seeing a lot of people sporting the the green & gold. I did have to drive up almost to the cheddar curtain(the Illinois/Wisconsin state line, as referred to by people from Illinois, Wisconsin sports fans are known as 'cheese heads') to find Sissy and Me new shirts from Kohls, we had both been borrowing from the boys. Now we actually have 'girl' cut t-shirts! I think years ago our car may have been keyed or somehow assaulted because the rivalry is so strong.

Gloomy winter day.... need to find the sun and warmth stored in my memory from summer and bring it to the frontal lobes!!
