I've got my eye on you!

This week's spotlight product over at Stamp and Create is Buttons, Brads, and Bling (so they are 25% off this week in the store). Check out the Stamp and Create blog for more info on the spotlight products this week.



I had to pull out this adorable Willy One Eye for my card since I hadn't had a chance to use him yet.  Isn't he hilarious?!  Perfect for little boy cards!

I paired him with some Just Dreamy 2 patterned papers from My Mind's Eye and dark chocolate cardstock.  Then, I colored him with copic markers that coordinate with my patterned papers.  I added some buttons and brads that Lacey had sent me from the store along with a little piece of new leaf stitched ribbon.  It's hard to tell in the photo, but I added some dimensional glaze to Willy's eye and spots for a little extra shine and dimension.

Our weather on Saturday was really nice.  We got to spend some time outside and went for a drive.  My husband is gone during the week now working away from home so it was nice to just spend time as a family.  Then, today, we woke up to it snowing!  There is something wrong with that. lol  Luckily, it's my son's spring break so we don't have anything pressing we have to do. I'm going to spend some time knitting and scrapbooking today.  I'm knitting some little blankets for my kids for their stuffed animals.

Have a great day!
