Remarkable Blog Tour - Get Moving!

It's time again for our monthly blog tour! This month our theme is Get Moving!   Get moving....some suggestions were sports, new home, graduation.  I really struggled with this theme for two reasons, I've been very distracted - spending all my free time helping my daughter as she has been in and out of the hospital after the birth of her first child, and snuggling my beautiful grandson.  Very hard to focus on anything else.

I finally came up with what I wanted to do when I went to spin class on Tuesday.  I needed a place to track my daily food and exercise as it is time to get serious and get healthy!

So here is what I came up with:

Started with one of our Wood Mount Cases 

Created a cover that fits between the case and plastic cover.  Needed something to motivate me - sneakers and chubby legs and the reminder to "Get Moving"!  Just a few framelits and thinnlit dies, embossing folder, some cardstock, and twine.  

Here's what I have inside a tablet, pen and several note cards that have 30 day exercise challenges on them.  Looking forward to tracking my progress.

Easy project and looking forward to using it!

Supplies:

Cardstock:  Whisper White # 100730 (2 scrap pieces & 2 pieces 1" x 1 3/4"),
Tempting Turquoise #102067 (5" x 7"), Blushing Bride # 131198 (2 pieces 1 1/2" x 4"),
Real Red #102482 (2 pieces 3 1/4" x 2') Daffodil Delights # 119683 (scraps),
 Basic Black  #121045 (scraps)
Wood Mount Stamp Case- Full size  #127551
Painted Blooms Cotton Twine #137873
Big Shot Cutting Machine #113439
Stylish Strips Textured Embossing Folder #132174
Circles Collection Framelits #130911
Little Letters Thinlits # 133730
Snail Adhesive #104332

RemARKable Blog Tour - Memories

Welcome!  Wasn't Nancy's post awesome!
The past two weeks have been exciting, stressful and memorable for our family!  I haven't written about it on my blog, however if you follow my facebook page you know that last month I hosted a baby shower for my daughter.  It has been an exciting time for our family.  "Oliver" was due next week on March 19th, however he made his debut on Feb. 23rd- three weeks early.  His arrived via an emergency c-section as he was in distress and we learned after his birth that my daughter's appendix burst. With an extended hospital stay for both mom and the NICU for Oliver, I am thrilled to say they are both home and doing well!  Our theme this month is about memories and we certainly created lots of those the past 3 weeks!  I am sharing a Project life spread I created for my daughter of Oliver's birth.

I found this photo tray in my craft room -

I knew it would be perfect!  It has 6 - 4' by 6" openings.        

                                                       

This came together quickly ...I picked a few photos I wanted to use, some Project Life cards from the Little Moments Set , and some pieces from the accessory pack. Best part is when I'm ready to create a new spread each of the 6 cards will come out and go into a Project Life Memory Book! 

Don't leave those photos on  you phone or in a box- Project Life will help you to preserve your memories!  Just need to journal so that Oliver will know about his first 2 weeks!
