{ CPS #107, Use It! challenge 2, Project 365 - week 11 }

I used CPS #107 to make today's Use It! challenge 2 card. The challenge this week is: •use spring colors on your card •use at least 4 flowers •use a tag.

I grabbed an old kit bag filled with American Crafts paper. I love these colors. The flowers are die cut from a glitter foam visor hat that I got from Shanna in her blog giveaway. She bought them at Michael's (last year) and they come in different colors. I used Sizzix die cut flowers. The large flower is cut from American Crafts patterned paper. I added a journal tag (Elle's Studio) to the center and a stamped sentiment. For the bottom of the card I used a Stampin' Up roller stamp. I am using it for the first time and I love it! The ribbon is American Crafts, too, and I hand stitched it with some floss. I bought the ribbon at Michael's for a dollar. It comes in green, blue, purple and pink.

Project 365 - week 11.

3.9 - Alex can open all the doors in the house except the front door. He has been doing this for several weeks now.3.10 - aren't these pants cute? He likes to throw the books down and then put them back on the shelf. 3.11 - having a glass of milk. 3.12 - he is playing with his elephant toy that blows butterflies through his trunk. He doesn't like to catch the butterflies in the net, but he likes to pick them up and put them back so we can start all over again. 3.13 - a photo after our trip in the cold and the rain to a play center that was closed because it was full. 3.14 - opening and closing the CD player. 3.15 - taking a bath.

Wow, 11 weeks!
