Papertrey Anniversary


This is the recipe wrap-up by the uber-talented Lauren Meader. I made it into a clutch purse. Now let me tell you, I would personally carry this purse anytime. Raspberry Fizz out of this world. PTI never ceases to amaze me. I have more to add later, getting kiddos scrubbed and to bed.
While the picture isn't the greatest, this bag is Raspberry Fizz and Vintage Cream. Looks so rich in person.






I don't work that well under pressure, makes me crabby, but I was determined to get this challenge done. My husband has been gone every night for a week, I have an 8 year old and a 1-1/2 year old. While I was trying to get this done, all of the couch cushions ended up on the floor for my oldest daughter's personal mosh pit. My youngest daughter spilled an entire glass of milk on the floor that I didn't think she could reach, a pair of panties in the toilet and it goes on. Mom overload. I always want to take my creations to the next level, but not enough time or a trauma of some kind. I'm sure someday I will just look back and laugh, but tonight not as funny!!! Thanks for letting me vent.
I don't know about anybody else, but this Papertrey Anniversary is spectacular. It is like looking in your stocking every morning when you open up Nichole's blog.
