Week 5 was pretty quiet, just hanging around the house and letting the kids be kids. The first of my happy moments came this week when my son finally conquered climbing the big tree in our complex. He has wanted to do it since he was about 5 but this week he finally did it, the big reward is jumping over to the roof of the big shed and having a Coke with his friend.
I used the Bella Blvd Sunshine and Happiness collection which has lots of fun patterns to cut out and play with.
I especially loved the little clouds :)
I love hand cutting out designs to create embellishments and these flowers were perfect for this project.
I also love these mini clothes pins that I found at the dollar store, with a little bit of twine they are prefect to attach the projects to my board.
