Project Life Week 18, Spring is Here and French Curves

This is the first week that I didn't have last week's Project Life finished by Sunday night.  I had it mostly put together, but there were still a few items that didn't quite come together for me right away.  But that was fine because when I came back to it the next day, it just sort of fell in place.  I guess it was a bit of creative block on Sunday or something.

This week I finally had a week where I didn't have more pictures than I could reasonably use and I think that was part of the block for me.  But I used a number of great cuts from the Silhouette store to fill it in.  I loved their sale last week and I really stocked up on some great cuts that I'm really excited to use.

I'm going through this Basic Grey Fact line faster than the Pink Paislee, but I think that's a good thing because I certainly won't have time to get bored with it. 


 
I love that Spring is here.  All the flowers are in bloom (I'm ignoring the side effect of allergies) and it looks amazing outside.



 
To wrap up, I've mentioned that I use French curves any time I need to draw a curve and Cely, from Creating in Carolina (love her cards, be sure to check out her blog at www.creatingincarolina.blogspot.com), asked about them.  Before I found these at the office supply store, I was always hunting around for the "right" curved items (plates, cups, candles, etc) to use when I needed to draw a curve, but with these, I can draw any curve I can imagine.

Oh My Gosh......beautiful clematis and dogwood...wow wow wow! Haha....I went to google and looked up French Curves. Years ago I ran across them (now knowing what they are) I threw them away not knowing what to do with them....now I should kick myself. Amazon has a great deal with free shipping and I just may pick up some....thank you for the pic and use for them!
