Hi Everyone,
I hope everyone had a great holiday weekend.
We did, we hiked at a couple of parks where we live. The kids truly enjoyed. They are are 8 and 5.
My 5 year old hates to walk anywhere and he gets bored

real easy but he was a real trooper. He made me proud.
We went to a place that's near DC it was called Teddy Roosevelt Island.
It was so much fun and the weather was so perfect. Not too hot and it had a cool breeze that made it enjoyable for us and the kids.

Today, I wanted to share another Challenge project for Whimsical Designs. We had to create a project and use something we would normally throw out. Now, I used a grocery paper bag. Not those paper bags from Michaels that is all nice. This bag was big. It fit a 6x6 sheet of paper with no problem. I turned this bag into a card with a pocket.
Check it out:
I love how this card/bag turned out.
This came at a perfect time that I had to make my Mom a birthday card. We were also asked to use some digi images from our sponsor Inky Impressions. I chose the images called birthdaygirl and birthday wishes banner. I color them with my copics. Then cut them out. I used paper from Glitz Design called Laced Grace. I added a doily from a Irish restaurant. Cut out some Floral Doily Motif Dies from Spellbinders. Inked all the edges with Tim Holtz Ink Vintage Photo. Lastly, paper and acrylic flowers and a wheat spray from my friend Divine. I used a sentiment from Everyday Sentiments - Whimsical Designs.
That two pieces of white paper will be notes and/or pictures from my kids to their grandmother. I thought she would love that added touch. I better get this out soon. It's already late as it is. ooops!!
Love how this card turned out. I will be going to my Target soon and getting me some of these giant paper bags. I want to make more of these cards. Love this size.
