TAYLORED EXPRESSIONS AUGUST STAMP OF THE MONTH BLOG HOP

Hey there, it's time for Taylored Expressions August Stamp of the Month Blog Hop!  I absolutely HAD to have this set as soon as I saw it!  Our friends own a beautiful piece of land up the river, so we camp all summer long.  Hubby put in a "golf course" a couple years ago, so we always have something fun to do...golf, swimming, croquet, darts...or just sitting around the fire visiting...did I say eating?  Can't forget that!  *grin*  My step-brother usually brings my nieces up to the property 2-3 times during the summer.  They are adorable girls and a lot of fun to be with!  Their last trip to see us is usually for Labor Day, so I made this to give to the them.  They are CRAZY for s'mores!  In fact, they make "gourmet s'mores"!  I think out of all of their experiments, my favorite has been the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup S'mores!  *yum*

The stick and marshmallows were die cut then colored with Copic markers.  A circle Nestie was cut then sponged with Peanut Brittle before being removed from the die.  The marshmallows were glued to the stick then the stick was popped up on foam.  Love the papers in the Key Ingredients Kit...so much fun!  I like my marshmallows toasty, can you tell?  *snort*
