Cute Dry-Erase Board!

I am always looking for ways to make our lives around here run smoother.  Sometimes I think if I don't write it down, it won't happen.  Yes, I still have moments of "Mommy-Brain" from when I was pregnant.  Now that my youngest is 4, I asked my doctor when I would get my "regular" brain back...he just laughed.  Sigh. 
So that brings me to today's project.  Did you know you can create your own dry-erase board?  I made this using a picture frame, a packet of Close To My Heart papers called Twitterpated.  I'll be teaching this class in the near future, so watch this blog for a future post with dates etc.

Whooo Loves You ~ March Club Layout

This month's scrapbook club layout features the Whooo Loves You stamp set paired with the soft colors of the Topstitch paper kit.  This stamp set has been out for awhile now, but I finally got to use it for club!
The borders on the 2 chocolate mats were stamped using the new Togetherness stamp set that feature several cool stitching looks.
The cute owl was paper pieced by first stamping her in Chocolate, the stamping her again in Baby Pink.  Cut out the pink chest and attach to the Chocolate owl and voila you've got a simple paper pieced owl.  Attach to page with foam squares and it really stands out!
