5 In Happiness

Do something creative every day

I love that saying and it’s so true. Being crafty and creating something, even if it is a small something, once a day makes me happy. I made these little chipboard flowers yesterday in about 10 minutes for a challenge on a 2peas. It was fun and I love the end result. I had some Scenic Route chipboard pieces that I knew I wouldn’t use because I didn’t like what they said on the front, so I just flipped them over to the plain chipboard side, slathered on some happy blue paint, punched out some flower and circle shapes with some scrap cardstock and then finished them with a button each and that was it! So fun! These colors make me happy and I can’t wait to find a home for these whether it’s on a card, on a layout (or two) or on a mini album! So don’t you forget to do something creative every day! You’ll be glad you did! Happy Wednesday! :)
