Color Makes the World Go Round

ok not really but Color does make the world a better place
and Coloring makes you feel better... yep, it's a fact!
FINALLY!
When I'm sick, and I'm talking really really sick I have always reached for
a coloring book & my crayons
yes, I'm fortysomething but that has never stopped me.
I have no shame!

So it's with a happy heart that ADORNit has come out with these wonderful Coloring Books
the pages are the same awesome quality as their ArtPlay Paintables!
I was the lucky girl who received the coveted Christmas Coloring Book... oOo aAh
Starting you out with the cards I created


This card, I couldn't resist the little window showing off two of Lindsay's sweet ornaments



And now for the wallhangings!
The first is just mounted on foam-core board, super lightweight

Holly Jolly Christmas really needed some reindeer & I'm still in love with these Tim Holtz dies. I had this frame but the cut-out was about 1/2" too small so I chose to mount my creation over the cut-out instead of inside the frame

Now last but most certainly not least, this beauty was created using the
8" Pointed Bracket from ADORNit!

Up next is Mountain Plains Crafter's fabulous Terri!
oh and if you're collecting words... mine is "old" {sheesh of all the words I get that one} lol

  2. the ideas to make wall hangings and cutting up the papers to make greeting cards is great. So often you color something and then just leave it in the book - never to be appreciated again.
    thanks for sharing so many wonderful projects.
    Old is not bad - just be glad that you can be "old" :-)
