EASTER GOODIES
Hello. I have had a rough week at work. I was hoping to win an award that I worked hard for all year, but that didn't work out. I was very disappointed in myself. It is hard to accept that your best isn't good enough. The message in church today was about HOPE. That you can't achieve what you hope for without ideas. They had an organization called Message Keys. They make and sell necklaces out of keys that they have stamped a message on. You are supposed to wear it for a while then pay it forward to someone who is struggling with something. After hearing some of the stories, I decided to quit feeling sorry for myself and to figure out how I can better myself for next years recognitions.
I made these cheerful treat holders to give out at Easter. The yellow patterned paper is Bo Bunny, the pink is K&Company and the blue paper is Jillibean Soup. I started with an oval Spellbinders die. All other dies and sentiments are from MY CREATIVE TIME

ATTIC FINDS
Today I had the day off. So I rummaged thru my attic for things to paint with chalk paint. When I received my Scrapbox desk, there was a wooden frame supporting the desktop. I painted it green with CeCe caldwell Chalk Paint. then I screwed some hooks into the back and attatched wire. I painted the clothespins, aan old yellow shelf and a gold picture frame with Annie Sloane "Antique White" chalk paint. I went over the embossed parts of the frame with CeCe Caldwell's silver wax. Now I have so many places to display my cards, that I need to create more paper projects.
