I debated whether or not to post about this, since it's not exactly my news, but I'm sharing it anyway. This Saturday will be the last time Andrew & Star Dust Farms will be at the farmer's market. Running a small farm is not for the faint of heart, and there comes a point where even the most idealistic and hard-working person has to look at the big financial picture, and I guess this is that point. I hate that he's forced to make this choice, and I hate that operating a small farm is not sustainable without operating at a loss. And selfishly, I hate that it means one of my friends won't be spending Saturday mornings hanging out with me at the cafe.
On an unrelated note, how about a card? Hopefully tomorrow I get some photos taken of what I've been working on - if I say so myself, being cranky seems to be working for cardmaking.

Supplies: Papers from K & Co;
rose stamp from Stampin' Up! Fifth Avenue Floral;
thank you stamp from Hero Arts;
Versamark ink & white EP for the rose, Palette Noir for the sentiment;
Rose coloured with the floating reinker technique, with Adirondack Eggplant |
I made a few more cards with this rose this week - it is a really fun technique, if a little messy. Sometimes it feels really good to get your hands covered in ink.

Oh no! Wow....there goes my local source of meat. That's too bad and sad that it's come to this. Yes, a thank you is definitely in order.
