Love

 SWAT:Drill #18
Use Wood Embellies

School has been so crazy I haven't been able to participate with the SWAT DT very often. But term break means at least a few extra hours in the day so here's my take on Jenessa's super fun sketch.
 ~ LOVE ~
We are a household that loves receiving hand-me-downs. How delighted the girls were to discover that bags of clothes from two different people resulted in matching hoodies!!!
Find JOY in the little things, and happiness won't be far behind.

Die-Cuts and Rub-Ons

 I love the way adding rub-ons to a project give it a bit of a steampunk twist. This card is all about the bugs so I used chalk-board paper for the butterfly and added rows of rub-on bugs.
A strip of canvas ribbon finishes it off perfectly.
Supplies:
Paper and Trim:WeRMrk
Rub-Ons:7 Gypsies
Ink:Ranger
Embossing Powder:Zing
 Embossing Folder:The Paper Studio
Butterfly Die:Kreaxions

Back 2 School

 
Sew On It
 
Todays's challenge is all about the sewing!!!
I'm always game for a stitch or two so I put my machine to good use and did several vertical stitches on this layout.
~ back 2 school ~ 
 
As you can clearly see, this Layout is about my favorite day of the year...the first day of school! This year when I took the back to school photos I caught a light refraction off the lens and it turned into a double rainbow across the photo!!!
PROOF
that school is indeed a good thing.
