Hello and Happy Tuesday! I feel like I haven't been on my blog for so long even though I just missed a week. Last week was one of those weeks that seems like it would never end. It was the last week of school and we had so much planned that I seemed to work around the clock, we did a craft everyday to go along with the theme of the day, (I planned all the crafts and brought in everything to do them). The last day of school was a full day for staff so I spent the afternoon doing creative bulletinboards for a couple of teachers, so needless to say the last week and a half has pushed my creativity to the limit.
Being Tuesday it is also time for another challenge over at Going Grey with Scrap-Creations. This week we have a theme that was so different for me to do. The theme this week is Anything But A Card. I decided to do a garden journal for myself. I am getting into gardening and need to keep a journal so I know where I planted everything and what didn't do well so I can move it for the next year. I wanted something pretty so I could leave it out. When I saw this pretty flower fairy I knew it was perfect for the cover. It is hard to see but I have lots of glitter on all the flowers(the second picture shows it a bit better), the journal was a dark green color so I painted it a light blue. I am very happy with the way it came out. Our sponsor this week is Wee Stamps. Their images are so adorable, they are Wonderful!
So be sure to play along with us this week if you would like to try to win some of these adorable images.
