A Naptime Project

Yay! Kids are out of school, which it great, except I have absolutley no quiet time at all any more. Every time I try to get something done, a million other things need tended to at the exact moment. So little things take longer to finish, longer things may need to wait until September. :) A few weeks ago while shopping our local Goodwill store, I found a cute enough frame for a whopping $5. Hmmm. It has sat in my living room, been knocked over numerous times by our one year old, waiting patiently for me to figure out WHAT to do with it and finally, it came to me. A little Microsoft Word and online scrapbook decos, and voila! A summer project completed during naptime.  Maybe I can get a litle nap now....

  2. Thanks! The mat was there already. I have been thinking of doing a 'photo wall' and when I found and finished this, it has given me the centerpiece for the whole wall. Thanks for visiting :) Enjoy our weekend too
