It's definitely winter in Texas! Yesterday and Saturday, we had temps in the 70's...so nice and beautiful. Perfect to play outside. Today it is overcast and 40's. Tonight we'll be dropping into the 30's with rain, and that will turn into ice and snow tomorrow - temps in the LOW 20's. They say, if you don't like the weather, wait a few minutes, it'll change. That is so true here!
Monday also brings a new challenge at Paper Therapy! This one was definitely a challenge, but I had so much fun! I definitely embracing my inner vintage girly this week:
This week it is a technique challenge. Use a border punch not as a border but in a new/different way. Here are a few links to give you some ideas.
