Have a Gratitude Attitude!!

I just had to make a "Have a Gratitude Attitude"

sign for my freshly hung old window. 

I designed the graphic using Photoshop Elements,

I used my House of 3 brushes for the label and scroll

 {I love anything that the gals over at House of 3 design.

check them out here!}

I printed out the saying and cut it out.  Then I was going

through my paper stash and found this

Heidi Swapp paper that was a perfect fit for the saying,

Then I did a quick gold glittering to add a little sparkle.

My project wouldn't be complete with out a little burlap! :)

 I just couldn't resist the chandelier crystal from HobLob. 

I knew I had to use it for a Thanksgiving project!

I have had this window sitting in my garage for 3 years! 

What was I thinking not bringing it in sooner!!!

{it is about 2'x3'}

My pictures aren't the best of this project, it looks so much

better in real life! :)

Enjoy your day!!

Nauvoo Trip and Wall Decor

We just got back from a family vacation with Bill's Family to a few Church History sites.  We stayed a few days and Nauvoo, Ill.  The temple there is gorgeous!!!  We were able to go to the Nauvoo Pagant while we were there.

Here are a couple of pictures that I took of the Temple, I had fun on photoshop with them!

Before we left on vacation I finished this wall, I just didn't have time to blog about it.
I had all of the frames, I just had to spray paint them black!

Then I lined a foam core poster with burlap.

The wreath holder is from RodWorks.

I did a little iron-on directly on the burlap.

I got the birdcage and the label from Graphics Fairy.

I used houndstooth scrapbook paper behind the iron-on.

I typed in the scroll label "Las Luces...Juntos Para Siempre".

Which means "the lights...Together Forever"

If y'all know me you can see something that looks familiar...

My hubby served a mission for our church in Argentina, so it was fun to add in the spanish in my decor.

I hope y'all are having a fabulous summer!
