The Shoe Challenge - Flowers!!

The challenge over at The Shoe this week is.....are you ready for it?.....FLOWERS!! Super easy right? We use flowers on almost all of our projects anyways, so this is simple!

I've been trying to do all my girls' school pictures, but it's so hard to decide what to scrap and how with them. However, once this challenge came up I knew I had the perfect picture to scrap of my youngest daughter from her school pic last year. I just LOVE how it turned out!!

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. And stop on by The Shoe and get your project turned in for a chance to win our Shoe Blinkie to post on your blog!

Supplies below!
CS, PP, INK - CTMH; Flowers - Handmade by Lorinda (Etsy store, AtwaterMoon); Gel Pen - Sakura; Ribbon - American Crafts; Adhesive - Xyron X and ATG gun.

Fashionista Friday - Mother's Day Theme

This week over at The Shoe our theme is Mother's Day....of course! It is coming up this Sunday, May 9th and what a great way to celebrate by creating a lovely LO or card for your Mom!

This LO I made is of my mom and I in 1974 and just her in 2004 (I've blacked out her face per her request.) This picture of the LO does not do it justice, it is really quite pretty in person. I am a lot like my mom: we look alike, we got gray hair early, we laugh alike, we have the same sense of humor, we married men who are just alike, we don't like our pictures taken, we both had 2 girls, etc....I could go on and on!

It took me awhile to go through all the albums of pics she had at her house to find the perfect ones, and let me tell you, there are not alot of pics of my mom or of her and I together (hence the baby pic of me!) She is my world, and I don't know what I would do without her!

I've titled this LO "You are so beautiful to me" and unfortunately I've lost my list of supplies that I used for it.

Thanks for stopping by and checking it out! I hope you all have a terrific Mother's Day!
