Did you ever see a paper line and instantly be inspired?

I saw this Theresa Collins line when I went to work one day and immediately envisioned a Christmas Banner and quickly went to work.  I still think it is missing something...but I am pretty happy with it.

Yay!!! Some projects finally!

I was at work a couple of days ago and walked past this paper and just had to have it!   Isn't it adorable?  I think I have to pick up more cause I used it.  LOL  It is Prima's Jack and Jill collection.  I plan to take a photo of my 4 children together and softening it on the computer and adding it to the layout.  And then I have to journal of course!

 

Here is a super simple card I made as well.  I went to Challenge Masters to pick up some challenges for inspiration.  The layout was for the one little word challenge, using the word blessed.  This card is for the Manufacturer challenge - use 4 of 7 (My Mind's Eye, DCWV, Cosmo Cricket, Prima, Kaiser Craft, Heidi Swapp, Jennie Bowlin) 

I am picking up a canvas today to do the altered challenge.  This should be fun!  I just picked up a 3 pack of Making Memories paint in halloween colors from Tuesday Mornings for $1.69 (can't beat that) It will be fun to make some Halloween wall decor....it seems we have very little Halloween decoration in our house for some reason.  Maybe I should pick up 5 of them and let the kids each make one too.  I might need more paint!!!! LOL

Have a great day!!!!

We have a little visitor that runs around the yard every morning collecting food for the winter. I love watching him carry that big cob of corn throughout the yard.  He is just so cute...and you just can't help but smile when you see him!

Today my 4 year old is feeling a bit under the weather......since she is sleeping now...I think I will sit down and get some much needed craft time in!!!!  Hopefully I will have some projects to post soon!
