For this week's great Tickle a Teapotter challenge from Jan.
Reading it sure brought back plenty of picnic memories for me - even if we were often bundled up in coats to stay warm!!
The traditional Sealy family picnic was sausage (link sausage) sandwiches, with the sausages cooked on the spot in a big frying-pan on a small Campingaz stove. We had them on thick white bread with plenty of butter. And then the coffee pot (Italian stove-top espresso style) went on for my parents.
I know we had beach picnics after school when we were small, but I don't remember the food from them as much as I do the sausage sandwiches .
Lots of masking on my card - I used the following stamps from Purple Onion Design: Ruby, Honey, Twinkle, Toadstool and Picnic Set. The sky is sponged, the grass is pencil. Twinkle is popped up on foam - and I found the perfect sentiment in an old SU set!!
Sorry if I don't get all the fields filled in properly - we are away from home just now.

this is so sweet, Sabrina. I would love to see your studio: I can't imagine all the images, inks, pens, paper and whatever your must have in your space. I bet you have your own stamp store in your home. You always use different images on your cards. I love this one.

Awe, Sabrina, I love your sausage sandwich picnic memory! That butter had to make the sandwiches quite tasty (I love butter on everything)! Your card is outstanding! Love the image and coloring. Each part of the image, especially that magnificent mushroom, is so darling! Love the card!! Whoever receives this card will definitely be blessed!
