Wall art

I am really loving the inspirational words you can find on Pinterst. I think this has got to be one of my favorite quotes I've come across lately. It's been attributed to Dr. Seuss and Robert Fulghum. I spent a lot of time trying to figure out for sure who it was, but it seems it is up for debate all over the web. I used Kitschy Digitals {Chalkboard Paper Collection} as the background for my own wall art creation, along with the font called Chalk Dust.

Jodie Lee

This month to showcase Jodie Lee's products from {JessicaSprague.com} I decided to create one layout and one hybrid.

I used tons of Jodie Lee's products for my layout, but my main focus was to showcase the fun {Vintage Postcards}. If you want a full credit listing you can click {here}.


While perusing the Pinterest boards I saw some clothespins that had been made into magnets with scrapbook paper. I decided to make some myself and added a metal embellishment to each one with the initials of each my mother-in-law's grandkids. I used Jodie Lee's {French Market Papers}. So perfect for a project like this!

Love this quote

I saw this quote and remembered that I had taken a photo of rope this summer. Put them together and voila!

2 Christmas gifts

I have two projects to share tonight. One is a gift I will wrap and one is gift packaging itself.

My first project is a name book to help my preschooler spell the names of people she cares about. Saves us both time! I used {Splendid Fiins (Faux)laroids} (which are on sale for $1.94 during the holiday sale!) to create a 4x6 page for each individual. I had a coupon code for 25 free prints from Walgreens and found a clear album for $1 at Walmart! I was going to give it to her for Christmas, but the little stinker found it. I've gotta start finding better hiding places!


My second project is a Christmas tag that I attached to a take-out box with a gift inside for my nephew. I used Echo Park's Holly Jolly Elements {Pack 1} and {Pack 2} (both of which are on sale right now for $2.59).


It has been fun to create homemade gifts this year. Our limited budget has really left me no choice, but even so I have really enjoyed using my digi-stash for all kinds of things!

Inspired

Pinterest has inspired me lately. I especially love the quotes people are pinning. I decided I want to create some of my own! Here is one I threw together this morning.


I think I'd like to create one or two a week to throw out into cyberspace and maybe someone else can be inspired just as I have been to keep on trying everyday.
