40 reasons I love you

I saw this idea on several blogs/sites on the web so I haven't put a link up because they are easy to find.

Usually this is 52 reasons, as you use a whole deck of cards. I bought a different type of deck (having been in a rush and not paying attention) I also had a very limited time frame. I believe if I had more time to come up with more reasons I could have easily found 52, but as it was, looking for inspiration I found mostly romantic reasons. This is so NOT what I was looking for as my book went to my 9yr old son! I think I came up with some great reasons, a lot that were very specific to him and our relationship. His favorite was that he's cute. ;~). It may only be 40 reasons, but I think they are great reasons. And I meant every one of them.

Book forest

I have been making more of these book trees.  It may not be a forest yet, but maybe someday soon....

I have also made a couple of cute cards this week ( while at work)


I know it's nothing like a traditional Halloween card, but Will doesn't do scary and I figured the greens and purples were enough to tie it into Halloween with the "Boo" on the card right?

I just loved this picture, and decided I had to do something with it, What do you think?
And lastly, again while at work I made a book frame.  I love these, they come out looking so beautiful and the possibilities are endless....

My son Will and his friend this summer at the Wild Life Park.

I love it when I find the right book.  Even if you can't, you can cover the book with paper or fabric which is very easy to do.  This just called for a simple embellishment of a forget-me-not.
Where is your creativity taking you this week?
