Back from vacation!

I had a wonderful time in Panama City...even if we did have to flop on the beach in between rain showers. Now to play catch up on going through a warehouse sale box from Pink Paislee I received the day I was going out of town...very excited with what I got and will try my best to post some photos of all the goodies. Well now off to play catch up on emails, do laundry and getting myself in the mindset to go back to work...sigh...but most of all going to go have dinner with my sweetie since it is his birthday and I haven't seen him since last Thursday. Enjoy creating! "T"

Vintage Heartfelt Designs Back to School Challenge

I created this pocket for the Vintage Heartfelt Designs Back to School challenge. I used a toilet paper roll holder as my base which I flattened and then used a bone folder to make the edges crisp.
The supplies I used for this project:
The Girl's Paperie, Sassafras, cardstock, Jenni Bowlin Journaling card,Heartwarming Vintage image, ribbon, Tim Holtz label holder, buttons, and Prima flowers.
I hope this has inspired you to create something for yourself!
