Twyla on Tuesday - Barn Charm


Hello friends!
I had another barn I wanted to share
with you this week on Barn Charm.  This one
is in Ozark, MO.  Ozark is one of my
favorite Missouri towns. 

We visit there a lot to go antiquing
and to eat at some of our favorite
places.  If you're ever in Ozark you
should try the Spring Creek Tea Room
and Ben's on the Square!

This barn is actually right in town.
A remnant of days gone by.

It reminds me of Psalm 61:3,
For You have been a shelter for me,
A strong tower from the enemy.



Much of Missouri is getting snow today.
I am having no trouble keeping warm,
 there are plenty of afghans around
my house to snuggle under.




Also keeping my hands busy knitting a scarf.



Thanks for stopping in for a visit and be
sure to visit Bluff Area Daily for more
Barn Charm.
I hope you all are staying safe and warm.
Have a beautiful day!

Love, Twyla

Twyla on Tuesday - Barn Charm


Hi girls!
Today I'm joining Barn Charm!
If you love the quaint charm of an old
barn then be sure to visit Tricia's blog
for more barns from around the country.


This barn is on an old farm in Cooper County, Missouri. 
It was used as a bull barn.  The family was famous 
for raising Shorthorn cattle as far back as the 1830's.

I love driving the backroads through Missouri and I
love it when I come across sights like this! 

Thanks for joining me today for a trip through the
country!

Have a beautiful day!
Love, Twyla

Happy Paper Scrapping


Hello friends!
I'm sharing a layout today! Using this lovely paper by My Mind's Eye from their new Collectable collection. My Mind's Eye and Gossamer Blue kit club are having a Guest Designer contest and this is my entry.


I used the Remarkable papers from the Collectable line with Washi Tape from their new My Girl line and their new decorative tape sets. I added spray mist drops from the Mister Huey's mists. Then added MME enamel Dots which are quickly becoming one of my favorite embellishments. The arrow stamps are also from MME's new collectable line.
This layout is about my friend Susan. She is quite a woman. A Daycare owner, Mayor and cancer survivor. One thing about her though, you just never know what she's gonna say. So this title worked perfectly for the person she is. I added a little hand stitching around my title to make it stand out.
I also added a date stamp at the bottom of the layout. That was from Amy Tan by American Crafts.



We are on our last week of vintage valentines! I can't believe how quickly it is coming! Today's cute valentine is from the 1930's.




Have a wonderful day, Lindsey

Vintage Pearl Oyster Valentine

Hello friends!
I think this vintage valentine is so funny!


The back says:
There's other oysters
in the sea;
But I am hoping you'll
choose me,
And say that I'm so
very fine
You'll have
Me for YOUR
Valentine.

Have a wonderful day, Lindsey
