My Wonderful Wall Decor Project....

Hi Everyone;
I Finally finished this idea I had brewing in my head...It really didn't take long to do, but with all of my interruptions from work, kids, and family...it did take longer than expected to get it onto the wall of my living room!
I've had this antique frame for as long as I can remember...I knew someday I would do something great with it...it has hung in my shop garage all these years! The kids never destroyed it-that is amazing that they didn't use it for a basketball hoop or something... My inspiration for this project came from page 112 of our Stampin up main catalog...it featured a card that said "Create Everyday"  My Sassy Scrappers group meets monthly at my house and I thought wouldn't that be a great saying for them to see.  So the wheels started turning in my head...I could make tags, decorate them with our wonderful Designer Series Paper..in this case I used one of my favorite now finds: Spice Cake! My down line Sue and Shannon just love this paper also.  I then decorated a few of the tags with embellishments after applying the letters to the tags.  Our new Mini Clothespins were a wonderful addition....then I can change my tags to go with the season's! Next I am going to use the fantastic Designer Series Paper entitled: Pick Your Poison...I can't wait to dress up those tags with some "Howl-O-Ween Creeps"....I'm going to have a creepy good time!
I've also posted some of the projects my gals made on Friday at our club meet...I would like to thank Sandi MacIver for the inspiration of one of the cards....The other inspiration came from a swap I received at Convention in Utah: Susan Schemp...enjoy todays post...
At the farm we are going to see what Hurricane Irene brings us tomorrow...Lets pray my corn stays standing with the wind....
Take care and happy Stampin!
