Adornit and MPC Blog Hop!

Happy Monday everyone! Welcome to my stop on the uber-fun Adornit blog hop! Are you loving what we've cooked up for you? You should have arrived from my dear friend Debra's blog; remember if you get lost to head on back to the Adornit blog for the full list!

I'll be sharing the details all week with you about how I made these lovelies, but here's an overview of what I came up with:

I surprised myself some as I don't usually go the home decor/wall art route, but the wood shapes actually made it easy! (I might have had to take them back off my walls to take the photos...LOL) I also busted out the glue gun (without killing myself this time) and created all of those flowers myself from the Adornit fabric. So. Much. Fun.

Ready to go shopping? Here's the spiffy new links for your browsing pleasure:
