INSPIRED BY ALL THE LITTLE THINGS #54

Hello and happy Saturday!

Hope you had a great start in to your weekend? I'm in Dallas for Bexi's last club volleyball tournament of the year! So glad it's all coming to an end and that I get to enjoy my entire family from now on out!

Anyways, I'm equally excited to bring you the newest INSPIRED BY ALL THE LITTLE THINGS #54 challenge.....



 Here is the INSPIRATION PHOTO #54......


I also followed the layout from the FRESHLY MADE SKETCHES #285....


I was inspired by the fun yellow color and the flower on the shelf. I couldn't help myself, but to ink up the new PTI - Cloche Quarter Collection.

Please make sure to stop by the CHALLENGE BLOG to check out all of the fabulous ideas the team had and of course check out our Guest Designer this week!

Thank you so much for stopping by to day! Wishing you a fab day and have fun crafting!!!
