Pinterest Monday #5: Spring Time Inspirations


Spring is less than two weeks away! I am so excited for winter to be over. I have to say that for me it has been one of the worst winters. Not having a lot of sun and shorter days does not help with depression. It seems like the older I get, the worse it is.  Being that I have lived in Michigan all my life, one would think I should be used to the winters. I wish it was the case. Spring is the door that is opening to let the sunshine in. Literally. So bring it on SPRING!!!!

Pinterest Monday will be focused on Spring Time Inspirations. Some of the projects could even be used for Easter.

When I think of spring, I think of butterflies. At Michigan State University they have a live butterfly display. It is so cool. I will have to post my photography work of the butterflies.

I love this cute idea because it is different and unique. What a great way to recycle a broken umbrella. Definitely will brighten those spring time rain that we will be getting.

Mini Album

Hello!
I hope all is well and everyone is having a great start of the New Year! I have been busy with projects that I am working on which I will be sharing with all of you very soon. However, today I am going to share what I received from my mom as my belated Christmas gift. Which by the way is hand made by her. I love surprises and this was a welcome surprise.

Anyways, my mom created this interactive album using Kathy Orta's tutorials at Paper Phenomenon. This is called the All Occasion Mini Album. It is made using scrapbook paper pad that you find at Joanns or Micheals. This is so adorable and cute that I just had to share it.  Here are some photos of this cute book. Enjoy!
