“Sometimes you've got to let everything go - purge yourself. If you are unhappy with anything . . . whatever is bringing you down, get rid of it. Because you'll find that when you're free, your true creativity, your true self comes out."~~Tina Turner
I was at the Goodwill store last week looking for a couple of things and I came across this hurricane candle holder. I immediately thought of all my scrap pieces of ribbon that I have in a basket. This would be perfect with all of it's holes, don't ya think?
Then I was at Michael's and had two gift cards that needed to burn. =] I bought a set of Fluid Chalks, but then kept going back to this paper set. It kept calling my name. I picked it up. Looked at it. Looked at the coordinating items in the set...*sigh*. I did have enough to get it...hmmm.... No, I don't really NEED that paper do I? I just like it because it's all whimsy and fun....ugh. I can't resist. Rush back to the end aisle where it was on sale and then - for the first time - remember I have a coupon in my wallet too. Oh, good. Get both packs. Yea! No tough decisions to make today. Just pure, yummy, paper-lovin' fun! =] They are by Colorbok and are from their Friendly Forest line! The first pack came in a sturdy zippered package and includes punch outs, foiled papers, patterened and solid papers, divider tabs, etc. The second pack has 8 shaped specialty papers. Mmmmm...love it!
The second pack:
Can you blame me?

OMGosh, those are darling! Nope, I can't blame you at all! You know what I'm lovin the most though, your ribbon holder, how cool is that?!
That is really cute paper. I try to avoid the Michaels because of cute stuff like that. You'll create something FAB out of it!
That hurricane has "scrap room" written all over it! What a find! And who can resist new paper packs? I am a sucker for coordinates all in a bag with the embellishments too. Can. Not. Resist. HaHa!
From one paper addict to another.
I don't blame you a bit. lol

Owls are so IN right now.
My angel mother woulda loved em.
In the 70's she had owls n mushrooms all over the place.
LOVE LOVE that paper! SO cute!!! We need Michaels here..... That ribbon holder is awesome too. What a cool way to do that... :)
Now you're making me want to go back and get that paper. I've eyed that paper every time I've gone into Michael's too.
