You Are One in A Million Project Life Card

Hello! A few weeks ago, I made a Project Life card using a few supplies and mentioned in the blog post that I would be making a few more. You can check out that blog post here. Today, I want to share another card that I made.

I used most of the same supplies that was used to make my "Dream" project life card, but I did add a few different pieces. I used my Tombow Xtreme Adhesive to adhere the paper to the wood veneer piece. Then I started adding the embellishments. I really love the "You Are One in A Million" flair and the "Dream Big" epoxy label.

Random Tip:

I had those DCWV Inc. epoxy labels for a while and when I tried to take the labels off the sheet, the adhesive on some of the labels were no longer sticky or the paper on the back kept ripping. At first, I thought that I would have to toss the labels, but I was able to make them work by using my Tombow adhesive. So if you come across some stickers or labels that are either not sticking or the paper is tearing try using some adhesive like a glue runner.

Supplies Used:

• Heidi Swapp 6x6 Paper Pad
• DCWV Inc. Epoxy Labels
• Freckled Fawn Woodland Kit-White Puffy Stickers
• Freckled Fawn 2015 Kit-Flair

Currently List #95

Hello! It's Tuesday and it's time for another Currently List!

Loving: I just got my Day in the Life kit from Ali Edwards and I love it! My favorite part of the kit is the stamp. It's awesome and I have been looking for a stamp just like the one in the kit.

Making: I've been making lots of lists. Grocery lists, to do lists, etc....the lists seriously never end.

Eating: The hubby made mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and steaks for dinner. It was delicious!

Listening: Ellie Goulding is seriously awesome! I'm really loving this song.

Feeling: I've been excited, but stressed. Doesn't it sound crazy to be excited and stressed at the same time?

Planning: I have a lot of art and craft projects to work on. I'm hoping to catch up on a lot of these projects tomorrow or at least get a head start on them.

Watching: I watched a few episodes of Supernatural. It's cool to watch episodes from previous seasons just to see how much stuff has changed.

Reading: I finally got caught up on reading some blog posts. I'm also still reading The Alchemist and I may have said this before, but I can see why so many people love this book.

Super Foods Every Day--Blogging for Books Review

Hello! Hello! I am so excited to share my book review! I got Super Foods Every Day by Sue Quinn from Blogging For Books.

I was drawn to this book for a couple of reasons. The first reason are the colors...the cover is so bright and immediately caught my attention. The second reason is that it is basically a cookbook that focuses on super foods. I'm not into dieting, but I have been wanting to make some healthier food choices and was on the hunt for a decent cookbook.

This book includes information on what super foods are, a super foods glossary, and information on vitamins. There are lots of recipes for breakfasts, salads, soups, side dishes, baked goods, and sweets. I love that this recipe included smoothies and treats. Seriously it included cakes, cupcakes, and brownies. Each recipe includes detailed information on how to cook the recipes as well as detailed information on the ingredients that are needed. My favorite recipes are the Choco Smoothie and Berry Blast Smoothie. I can't wait to try the sticky energy bars.

I am so glad that I chose this book and I highly recommend this book.

Have you read Super Foods Every Day? If so, what are your thoughts on the book?

I received this book from Blogging for Books in exchange for this review. All opinions expressed here are my own.

30 Days of Lists--March 2016--Book Cover

Hello! Hello! A few days ago, I registered to participate in 30 Days of Lists. As you may know, I have participated and have sponsored this challenge. I am not sponsoring this time around, but I really do love this challenge.

I decided to make a mini album for this challenge. After not using my Cinch for a long time, I decided to get it out and put it to good use. To make my album, I cut some chipboard paper that I found at Michaels. Then I adhered some patterned paper from Crate Paper's Hello Love paper pad onto the chipboard paper. Then I followed the instructions to make the album. Thank goodness that the instructions are on the actual binding machine. Once my mini album was assembled, I went through my stash and used some puffy alphas to spell out of "Days of Lists". Since the Freckled Fawn puffy alpha set did not come with numbers and I didn't have any numbers in a similar font, I decided to use some black glitter numbers.

Overall, I like the way my mini notebook turned out. I plan to share a few of the pages in my notebook next week so be sure to be on lookout for that.

Supplies Used:

• The Cinch Binding Tool
• American Crafts Remarks Basics Glitter Alpha Shapes
• Freckled Fawn Black Puffy Alpha
• Crate Paper Hello Love 12x12 Paper Pad
• Unruled index cards
• Recollections chipboard paper

Currently List #94

Hello! It's Tuesday and it's time for another Currently List!

Watching: Up is definitely one of the best Disney movies ever! I have no idea why it took me so long to watch it, but I'm glad that I finally did. My boys love this movie and have watched a couple of times over the past few days. I'm finally starting to get caught up with Olya Schmidt's Sketch Your World class. I haven't started on the actual sketches and paintings, but I have watched all of the videos.

Reading: Speaking of the Sketch Your World class, I have also read all of the lessons. I wrote down any supplies that I need to get and I also wrote down the assignments as well so I can finally get started on some sketches.

Listening: I don't think I will ever get tired of hearing this song.

Making: I finally made my grocery list and I love that most of the items on my list are healthy. Yay for lots of fruits. I see a lot of smoothies in my near future.

Feeling: Today has been a really great day.

Planning: In the next few days, I plan to go with my mami to the farmer's market so that I can get the ingredients she uses to make sazon. I looked online for a recipe and there were a bunch, but I figured that I should get exactly what my mami purchases to make her homemade sazon.

Loving: Today's weather was perfect. It was not too cold or too hot. It's 60 degrees right now and it feels awesome!

Hello Summer Home Decor

Hello! Hello! On Tuesday, we had some pretty big snow flurries and even though it looked so pretty, I am just so over the winter weather. So I decided to make a summer themed home decor and just hope that warmer weather will soon be here.

I was going to make a card, but decided that I wanted to try something different. Since I don't normally make a lot of home decor projects, I decided to make something that I can put on top of my desk or on my display case. I found a few wooden bases that had patterned paper already adhered to it so I decided to use one. Luckily, I knew what items I wanted to use so all I had to do was just arrange the items onto the base before adhering them. Once I knew where I wanted my items, I began to adhere the supplies.

First, I adhered my tag, ice cream, sun and ampersand wood veneers. Then I added the enamel dots and the other small layered embellishments. I adhered the felt letters last. To adhere the felt letters, I used my Tombow Mono Liquid Glue and was careful not put too much on the letters.

I love how this home decor turned out and am thinking about making one for Spring, Fall, and Winter. I might even make a second Summer home decor as well. Here's to hoping for some warmer weather.

Supplies Used:

• Crate Paper Poolside Layered Embellishments
• Freckled Fawn Carnival Kit
• Wood base with patterned paper came from a destash box I purchased from Rukristin
• Tombow Mono Liquid Glue
• This to That Permanent Glue Runner

Are you ready for Summer?
