:: Monday Again? ::
Man this weekend just flew by! I was busy today doing some cool stuff with the chipboard letters I mentioned in my last post and the cool papers I got from MME on Friday. I bought the letters to spell out INSPIRE. I wasn’t sure exactly where I wanted to used them, and that was going to determine the colors and papers that I wanted to use. Well, since I bought a new computer desk yesterday to go in Jordan’s playroom, I thought they would be perfect to go over the desk since that is where I will spend most of my designing time. Wanna see how they turned out?
I used a combination of the Bohemian line and Jen Wilson’s Signature Suite.
Aren’t they just beautimous?? I love these new papers! They are so yummy!
Oh, on another note, I finally got a photo of another one of the aquarium critters. We got this shrimp a couple of weeks ago, but he only comes out at night when the lights are off. I caught him peeking out from behind a rock yesterday! He’s kinda freaky looking isn’t he? Those long antennae…
OK, you’re probably wondering what the freebie of the day is, aren’t you? Well, this time I did a sampler of my Rusty Bucket Paper and Element packs. Hope you like it! These colors are great for some more masculine layouts.
HERE is the link to download the freebie. Remember, DO NOT SHARE THIS LINK. If someone wants to download the freebie, all they have to do is come to my blog and download it directly from here. Have a great Monday! 
THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST IN MY FREE DAILY DOWNLOAD SERIES. THIS PARTICULAR DOWNLOAD HAS EXPIRED!

Thanks for the freebie. Your INSPIRE letters terned out BEE-YOU-tifully! I tried something similar with “JOY” a few months ago, but they didn’t turn out anywhere near as nice. Maybe with yours for inspiration I can fix mine up a bit.

Thank you for the kit. I like your altered letters…even though I have a whole room dedicated to paper scrapping…I still don’t have any wall space to put up something neat like that…the little space I have is filled with Disney cross stitches I made years ago when my kids were little.

Okay - thanks for the cute freebie and the great aquarium photo. Those letters are INCREDIBLE! They should be scanned and turned into an alphabet. I cannot believe you got them all done so quickly. Wow!! What a great addition to your space!!

Wow - you got that project done fast! I’d buy letters like that, and they’d probably just sit around for months until I felt inspired! lol! Good work!
Thanks for the gift!

Traci! Your letters are awesome! I love them!! I actually went to Garden Ridge after your post telling us about them & all they had left at my store were misc letters like “Q” - not able to spell out “Believe” like I had hoped
Thanks so much for the sample & for the continued inspiration. So glad I found your blog

LOVE the INSPIRE letters. Hmmmmm may have to do something fun like that! Did you simply adhear the paper to the letters, or did you use a decopauge medium on top of the papers. What adhesive have you found works the best?
p/s the freebies are also great and I am taking advantage of the 8 for $20 deal! Your creativity and motivation amaze me!
Thanks so much for sharing it with us!
