I want to express gratitude to all the wonderful people who have accepted me and my often quirky crafting style onto their design teams.
Today I'd like to express particular thanks to Tessa of Precocious Paper. I am so lucky to be a part of her amazing team, getting to work with her gorgeous flowers, and I am especially lucky to have found such a wonderful friend! My jaw drops at every one of her creations. The girl just oozes talent and creativity and she just inspires me to no end. And then to get to actually hold little works of Tessa art in my hands and create with them??!!! I am soooo lucky!!!!
This particular layout features her Sewing Pattern Petals.
Supplies Patterned Paper: My Mind's Eye; Flowers: Precocious Paper; Stickers: Jenni Bowlin, Colorbok; Chipboard: Bo Bunny; Brads: My Mind's Eye; Twine: EK Success; Stamp: Autumn Leaves; Ink: Tsukineko; Pen: Zig
I wish you could see this layout IRL. I used the My Mind's Eye flocked paper and it's just gorgeous. So touchable!!!
This is a picture taken last month during our trip to California. My husband's grandmother, 95-year-old Grandma Lu Lu, lives just minutes away from Disneyland so we made sure to visit her. The last time she saw The Girl she was about a month old!!! I am so happy that the kids have been able to meet some of their great grandparents during their lives.
Another project I recently made with EIGHTEEN Precocious Paper flowers was a Fall Flower Tree for the Scrapbook News and Review Halloween newsletter.
Supplies Flowers: Precocious Paper; Paint: Plaid; Styrofoam: FloralCraft; Other: pins, ribbon
This bad boy features Black Lace and Felt Flowers, Orange Bridal Satin Blossoms, Halloween Shimmer Rolled Fabric Flowers, and the Halloween Bouquet of Fabric and Felt Flowers.
If you missed the tutorial on how to make this little cutie in the Scrapbook News and Review newsletter, stay tuned to this blog this weekend for a rerun.

Be sure to check out the Precocious Paper blog for some additional and very gorgeous inspiration from other members of the DT!!
Hope you have fun plans for the weekend. Tomorrow is The Girl's birthday party at one of those bouncy places. I'm liking this having their birthday parties outside the home!!!!
Beautiful projects Heidi. Love what you've made with Tessa's flowers.
