Thrilled doesn't even begin to describe how I felt when I was asked to be the Guest Designer at The Girl's Loft this month! I think you all know my affection for Margie. :) The Girl's Loft is a Kit Club that she runs with her beautiful daughters, Meg and Brooke. January's kit was full of wonderful papers by Cosmo Cricket, Fancy Pants and Sassafras, some fun trims, bling and some awesome odds and ends! :) I had a lot of fun creating with this kit! I even altered a few things, which I haven't done in a while!
Here is a layout I made in a cheap plastic clock from Target: I Love You 24-7
Here is a German Gift Cone:
A close-up:
I cut the end off of the treat bag we received in the kit and lined it inside the paper cone. Added some bling to the flower centers and tied it up with a bit of twine.
Here is an antique washboard Ive had for years. I turned it into a message center: Loads of Love
Some close-ups:
No, I didn't name my boys, "1,2 & 3". :) They do however all have the same initials, so I had to figure out a way for them to know who the message was for so I numbered them in their birth order.
Here is some wall art. I found this frame at Target on clearance for $2.
This will be something I can eventually change out with new papers. Cant wait to see the new Girls' Paperie lines!
Another layout, this one of my niece with her very special babysitter: (she)
And finally a card: thanks
