CMP Designs: Gratitude Journal
http://amethystalcove.blogspot.com/2017/01/gratitude-journal.html
Tuesday, January 3, 2017. I can't believe we are already 4 days into a new year! I had an idea of making a small Gratitude Journal that fit in my purse and was maybe not as time consuming to keep up like I know some can be. It's a very basic little book that you can jot down good things that happen in a day, or quotes you see and want to use later and maybe just a few reminders to yourself about how great you are! Don't forget to head over to the original post at Mixed Media Mojo. And enter your project!

Vogue – Altered wooden box | the-desi-crafter
https://thedesicrafter.wordpress.com/2015/09/25/vogue-altered-wooden-box
September 25, 2015. Vogue – Altered wooden box. It’s a long weekend break here in Pakistan and I thought I’d get some much needed craft room cleaning done. Siigh*…I have realized that I have the attention span of a monkey. I’m not entirely sure how my cleaning escapades turned into yet another altered project – although I have inkling that this shiny Versace belt buckle had a role to play. Iquidtex White Acrylic paint. I dry brushed the buckle embellishment so that parts of it would remain gold. I went o...

Creatingwithoutcrayons-JackiePNeal: DecoArt saves the birdhouse!
http://www.creatingwithoutcrayons-jackiepneal.com/2015/07/decoart-saves-birdhouse.html
Wednesday, July 1, 2015. DecoArt saves the birdhouse! Hello everyone and Happy Summer! Over the next few weeks, you will notice an influx of posts of house and yard projects featuring DecoArt products. I am calling this my RE-DecoArt-ing period! From years of weather and neglect, my birdhouse was in pretty tough shape to begin with. A coat of outdoor primer and then the colors just flew! Because of the white base, the colors do not show up on camera as vibrant as they really are. What a gorgeous project!
