My Mojo May Be Back

The semester is over, spring is here, and I think my mojo has returned... or at least, having time to sit down and play has helped me find my mojo again. I've also finally got all of my Lisa & Becky rails in, and all the pieces are up except the ribbon spool holder... still waiting for that to arrive. Once that's up, then I'll post some pictures of the pit after the overhaul. And, I've also got news about the Paper Element -- but I'll save that for my next post.

Here's evidence of my mojo having returned. I had my kraft paper sitting and waiting for just the right project, and when I realized that I had paint colors that matched Alicia's top in the picture, I knew what the project was. And of course, I had to get out some stickles, too. The title is stamped with Technique Tuesday's Provence letters ("kiss"), outlined in Stickles, with Stickles in the swirls. The frame is painted with one brush dipped in two colors or paint -- one a Heidi Swapp and one a Making Memories color. I wouldn't recommend using two different manufacturers' paints for this... It was a little difficult because the Swapp and MM paints are such different consistencies.

I can't claim the photo credit on this one. The picture was taken by their mom, my niece, and it's been hanging over my desk for months. Those sweet babies are now two and almost four. Time flies!
