With so many new PTI products every month, I can't even begin to use them all. This is my first time using the watering can from Garden Variety. Sweet little thing. The stamped strips from Half & Half and Ribbon Tails are stamped in the new ink. I have a couple prototype pads. Nice, rich, dense, juicy color. Liking how the striped pattern grounds the watering can, but highlights it as well when the die cut Spring Moss piece draws your eyes. Something to remember. Sentiment is from Fillable Frames #4.
For you smutty romance fans out there--and it is fabulous to know I'm not alone--I've got a few good ones for you. Lord of Scoundrels is only $1.99 on Kindle! Very good. The heroine I found to be very atypical. And then there was Flowers From the Storm.. Sigh. I was up a few late nights reading that one. Although I did find some of the dialogue to be a bit hard to get through because the hero had suffered a stroke and the heroine was a Quaker. It wasn't mindless reading, but it sure was worth it.
And just to prove I read some pretty high brow stuff as well, Lost in Shangri-la (linked above) was excellent and riveting, but didn't not nearly as good as Unbroken. Unbroken leaves you a different person after you finish. I highly recommend both. I think the majority of my family have read it at this point.
Happy reading!
Just LOVE this card! Beautiful colors and just made me smile! :) Kim H.
ReplyDeleteLove the card. And I have to say, I'm impressed at the variety in your reading interests. I've got two of those books already on my wish list. If you haven't read "In the Garden of Beasts", I'd highly recommend it.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card! I hope your mother has a delightful birthday. By the way, Flowers From the Storm is one of my very favorite romances...since high school I have read many, many of them. Laura Kinsale is an original and excellent romance author--she also has some lighter romances as well--as is Loretta Chase (all her books are full of witty humor).
