**** Click HERE for my current GIVEAWAY!! *****
HELLO Everyone!!! I am SO happy you have decided to hop along with all my friends and I!! This is my first time ever hosting a blog hop and I am SUPER excited!! It's also my birthday today! I would normally never make a big deal out of my own Birthday but as I have gotten older I'm learning a few things.... Sometimes being a mother means we do everything for everyone else, and rarely anything for ourselves. After doing some work on myself these past 6 months I have come to the realization that in making sure we take care of ourselves, we are better able to care for others. That being said, I am giving myself the gift of the company of many fellow bloggers who love crafting as much as I do!

Now onto the project! :)
The theme of the hop is GIRLY!! If you follow my blog at all, you know I love all things girly. Which worked out well, since I had two little girls! :)
My craft room is super bare at the moment so I wanted to make something to help add some character to my walls. I used a shadow box that I picked up from Ikea for about $8.
I used some paper from the Gabrielle collection by BoBunny to cover the mat of the frame. I used some felt flowers that I made and combined them with some Pink By Design stamps (Bingo set) and some Recollections pearls and little plastic roses to dress up the 'Adore' title.
The cameo as the main feature is a vinyl rub-on from the EAD Designs Cameo Frames set. I added some little pearls to the rub-on for a little dimension and detail.
I also added some lace along the side (that I picked up at a thrift store) and some more homemade felt flowers and Recollections accents.
