Hello Everyone! Yesterday was quite an adventure for me. I had schedule to go to New Towne Village and do a plastic craft project with the residents there. I started at 10 and at 2 we still hadn’t finished. I thought I had chosen a fairly simple project – a ladybug magnet. The ladies did a great job with what they got finished.

I am loving my gingham paper download. I used some on Saturday for my sketch set and when I saw the sketch that Natasha posted at Clean and Simple I knew it would be perfect for their sketch.
