Little Creations



Spent today scrapping and doing many little things. I think I may slowly but surely be getting better at designing 12 x 12 pages ...either way, I actually like the way this layout came out! However, the notecards are my favorite. Tiny clusters of flowers and ribbon...what could be better? :) These papers are from the Making Memories "Noteworthy" collection available at Paper Pals.

Planting Day!







We've been at it all day! 80-some degrees and perfect weather for planting up all of my pots. TT came over bright and early this morning, and I kept Maia home so we could spend some quality time together. We went out to breakfast, played on the equipment downtown and came home to plant up the three flats of annuals I got at Crossroads. They turned out great! I think altogether we finished eight different planters. Though it didn't help my sunburn, it was a fantastically relaxing day.

Just finished this collage of Maia's second trip to Seattle. I found this jumbo 16-piece puzzle at the thrift store and it worked great for all of these cute pics of Maia in her pink coat! All I need to do is mount it on foamcore and frame it! It was time consuming, but definitely worth it... check out the Paper Pals Design Team website for details on its creation!

It has been a busy busy week. Lots of little miscellaneous happenings piled in a heap. Finally got this Wendy Addison "M" at the nursery for Maia's door. I've been wanting it forever and you can't beat 50% off! Leftover Christmas makes for limited selection but good bargains. Since I haven't gotten to do much crafting since last week, this little sparkly makes me feel better.

Flowers are finally blooming in the backyard. It is our first spring here so strange plants keep popping up all over. I love it! It keeps me in suspense...

Hope everyone's week is going well. :)
