If only Cute Worked

If only cute made me feel better.  If only cute cleaned my house.  If only cute did the laundry and the grocery shopping!

Doesn't work that way...LOL.

Popping in today to share a couple of cute projects I made using my January Nook kit!  I love the winter theme and put it to use to make a snowman card and some jazzed up hot chocolate bottles!

Here is the card!


I made it using some of the journaling cards that come on a sheet of patterned paper!  Love to deconstruct things and make them my own!  If you are interested and have a few extra minutes, check out my class at the Nook where I show you how to make this card!

I don't know about you, but I love to scour the dollar aisle at Target or even the Clearance section at Joann's to find little items that I can alter!  Here is an example of such a find.  These glass bottles came in a cardboard package and I thought, "Why not personalize them?"  Add a few small, easy tags and some twine and I think they are cute!




I guess cute works in some places.  It sure works for my kids.  LOL!

Wanted to remind you of a couple of things.  First, my friend Leah is doing a weekly installment on her blog of Making Home a Heaven, a retrospective aimed at making you reflect and appreciate.  You should check it out!  I love thought provoking experiences and this is one of them!

And The Nook is having a crop starting this Thursday and going through the weekend!  A Design Team Call is happening right now too!  Best place to design for!

Have a happy Monday!
