Pinterest Challenge #25

I've had a productive morning - beds are made,floors are swept, rooms are tidied (for now), dinner is marinating, ice cream has been churned and is in the freezer, dough for cookies are chillin' in the 'fridge and will become Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sandwich Cookies. . .seriously?  So much for my mental note to cut down on my sugar intake (saw too much jiggling going on the other morning.)  I wish I could say that was a good start on a short to-do list, but alas. . .no. Heat is climbing back up today and it doesn't appear there are storms in the forecast, so it's me, my semi-clean basement and a list of things to do.

For you, this is the last Pinterest Challenge.  I hope you've enjoy a look at ways to find inspiration in all kinds of things.  If you're nursing an obsession with Pinterest, Congrats!, er. . .ah. . .I mean sorry 'bout that.  Pinterest is a great place to keep your ideas, dreams and plans, but yeah, it can be a time sucker.  To make it seem more useful, I think I will seriously plan my menu from the I Can Cook That board next month.

This is one of those Pins, from Apron Strings' Color Theory board, where I'm not sure which I like the more the color scheme or the graphic.  Lily of the Valley are so pretty!  The colors are so cool.  So calm.  So. . .cozy.  Perfect for boys, big and small.  Great for cool weather.  Outdoor events.  The scheme would also be perfect for more formal events.  The little flowers make me think of using the small bunches of paper flowers so popular now.  Or little drops of buttons or brads - maybe a little shimmer on them.  As a grouping they look like lace.

Finally found my way to the store room, well, I knew the way, it was remembering to look at the Pink Paislee line that was tough.  Anyway this week's goodie bag includes Pink Paislee's 365 Degrees:  a couple sheets 12x12 paper, a 6x6 paper pad, Flip Notes, Alphabet Stickers, Clear Borders and an album. Sunday is your deadline.  One completed challenge from this week is all you need to be entered - more just up your chances at winning.

Happy Friday,
