Hi everyone!

The winner will be chosen from the comments! :-)

If you landed here on my blog from the ever-so-talented Jody, you are in the right place! If not, you might want to start off on Kim's blog so you don't miss out on any information or any of the awesome creations the ladies have prepared to share with you tonight. :-)

Now onto my super fun project featuring MFT's new Inspired by Flowers stamp set! First... the pictures... :-)

I had a blast altering this dollar spot balsa box from Michael's! Here's what it used to look like:

MFT's new Inspired by Flowers stamp set went perfectly with the Basic Grey Curio papers that I used. My Mom LOVES to garden. It's her #1 hobby. She's passionate about it and she's so GREAT at it! She has a nursery in her backyard for all her Orchids and grows all her veggies and fruits from seeds! I have to say, this is one trait I did NOT pick up from my Mom... LOL! I can't grow a weed even if I wanted to. LMAO! I created this box with mini album for her to put the pictures of her flowers and plants, which she LOVES to show off to friends and family.

If you'd like to view the video tutorial of how I altered this box, click HERE.

Now I'd like to direct you over to our guest designer for this past month, the creatively talented TAMMY. I'm sure she's got some amazing eye candy to share with us tonight!

Thanks for peeping by and have an awesome rest of the week!

hugs,
