Happy New Year!! And welcome to my stop on the Seasons Givings Blog Hop! I'm so excited to be a part of it this year and have a fun giveaway to share to one lucky reader.
This blog hop comes at a perfect time. I've been really lax with my blogging recently. I guess I had gotten bored with it. But, I've decided that I'm going to start putting more energy into it for 2014! Aside from my projects and descriptions, I'm going to be blogging about my Filofax and how I use it to to support my Project Life pages. I also think I might throw in some cooking posts, too. If you are a regular to my blog you will have noticed that I've done some work on it and have a new background, too. If this is your first time here, I'd love for you to become a follower (see side bar). Let me know what you'd like see more of.
So, thank you to all of you who have visited this year. This blog hop is giving me the chance to show you how much I appreciated your taking the time to stop by and spend some time in my little corner of the blogosphere. Each and every one of your comments always means a lot. Thank you!
I thought I'd share this project with you today. It's one of my favorites from this past year.
I started off with some REALLY ugly frames that I got at the thrift shop for a quarter a piece. I painted them white and added some Lumierre opalescent paint to them to give them a sheen.
Then, I layered on lots of Crate Paper's Flea Market goodies onto them.
I love the chipboard butterflies and the gold resin flowers, so those took front stage here.
The frames are rather small, so it was fun to try and find bits and pieces to put together on them.
Currently, they are on my scraproom wall. I attached them to a length of white ribbon and they are hung vertically. They look so pretty!
So, to thank all of my blog readers and to start the year off right, here's my giveaway.
This giveaway is filled with 6 by 6 papers from Pink Paislee, Glitz and Carta Bella. There are lots of other goodies, too, including embellishments from Crate, Pink Paislee, Elle's Studio and Basic Grey. Just leave a comment below by midnight EST on January 5. I will choose a winner and post it on the 6th. Below is a list of companies and people participating in the blog hop. There are TONS of prizes to be had.
