TMS on Wednesday

Okay now don't get confused...I'm confused enough for all of us! Here's the story....the wonderful ladies at Raisin Boat, graciously sent me 'The Undies in a Bunch' stamp set to use for yesterdays challenge. Knowing that my time would be limited because of my DH 'hospital tests', I created a card ahead of time using the "By The Beach' stamp set. Since the prize at Tuesday Morning Sketches is an "Undies" set, I thought I would show you another sample using the these stamps. Just think you could win a clean set of 'Undies' for your personal use! Not necessary to share! lol    Grab some paper and play along with the TMS sketch for this week. If you didn't see the original posting you can find it HERE.


The oval and the bottom rectangle were made by stamping the 'undies' with a Birthstone Kaleidacolor ink pad, then the images were colored with light shades of Copic marker. After the undies were fussy cut and the bottom pair was wrinkled to simulate 'a bunch' as in the sentiment. Question why is one undie called a 'pair' of underwear when it is clearly only one? lol :-)    I carefully cut the bottom of the clothespins just enough for the 'undies' to slide under the tip of the clothespin.

Just to remind you .... here is the TMS sketch for this week.


Back to creating cards in my Butterfly Garden.

HA!!! Love the bloomers blowin' in the wind! I don't have an answer to your question, why do they also call pants a "pair" of pants too...goofy ;)

Any test results for your husband? I continue to to keep you both in my prayers ~ hugs!

Laughing my hiney off - I truly enjoyed your post and your card! Love your undies Marie! The card is fantastic.

It's a pair because they're designed for two... legs. Ears/Eyes for a pair of glasses. But my question is why isn't a pair of shirts for two arms?

A clean set of Undies...lol...I had to giggle :) Love the added detail of the bunched-up undies tucked into the clothespin! And the way you did the background pieces with the undies...awesome!
