FINALLY! Some creative time...
I know my family is probably looking for some Thanksgiving pictures...BUT I'm happy that I got a chance to do some creating this weekend, so I'm putting up a crafty post today!
I had a chance to pull out my American Crafts AMY TAN products...such FUN! Love the colors and the textures...here's what I created...
I've seen these butterfly boxes before, and the 'science' geek in me is drawn to how they resemble specimen displays...I used my Tim Holtz Movers and Shapers Butterfly dies and adhered the beauties to a punched grey circle before mounting on the cardstock with the printed quote...LOVE this project!
AMAZINGLY...I created a couple of cards...
Those that follow my blog know that I publicly complain about my card making abilities...perhaps I've turned a corner?
Lastly, but not leastly, I created this photo-less layout documenting our family's road to our Iowa HOME!
All these FAB Amy Tan (and the Tim Holtz die) products are available at The Scrapbooking Studio in Moline (or Bloominton)...check 'em out!
ps. if you're in a holiday mood, check out my handmade ornaments on the Reminisce blog!
Ang, you always were much quicker than I was! I tend to take my time! :)

Oh Ang, I knew from the first after Thanksgiving shopping trip you were one of us....:) I am glad you call Iowa home. I still do. Maybe someday I will get used to this KC thing.
