Thanks Theresa!

I was talking to my BFF Theresa last week about the GDT challenge over at Sketchy Thursdays and saying that I'd like to try it but wasn't feeling too inspired.  For March they're asking that you use:
1.  Pink & Green or Red & Turquoise
2.  Hearts
3.  A list about something/someone you love
and of course their sketch.

Well Theresa suggested that I use the Jenni Bowlin paper she gave me with the list of 10 and then she came over Friday night to crop and gave me the awesome rainbow looking paper which has both red and turquoise in it.  The wheels were turning and I was feeling the inspiration.  The rainbow paper is by Crate but it was specifically designed for Studio Calico, of which Theresa is a member.  I love this paper so much that I punched out my heart banner with it.  I inked around the hearts with my black copic and popped them.  I was originally going to stitch them together but I thought I'd see how stapling looked and it looks awesome!  Super easy way to make a banner and it still allows you to rotate the individual pieces to place them how you want.  I added a Bo Bunny flower, some Sassafrass stickers, a Jenni Bowlin ticket and  red and turquoise heart pins.

The photo is of my son Gavin.  He's such a character you can see my list of loves if you click on the photo.  But to explain no. 9, over a year a go I picked him up from daycare and he asked if I had discovered anything new today.  I told him, "Gavin, I discover something new every day."  Well don't ever say that to an inquisitive kid.  Now he asks what I discovered each time I pick him up.  It's hard to come up with a new discovery that's interesting to a 5 year old so now I go to Snapple Real Facts to try to come up with an interesting discovery for him.  But I just love that he asks!!!
