CR84FN13: XOXO



Happy Thursday! Spent another lovely snow day at home! So nice, yet dreading those make-up days! ha!


I saw this challenge on Amy's blog and loved the colors so I had to check it out over at CR84FN. There is something so yummy about turquoise, red, and chocolate! I had the idea the other day to use one of these red and white pipe cleaners to make a heart, so the timing was perfect with this challenge!


I picked these pipe cleaners...official name Candy Cane Chenille by Darice...at Paper Source at the Country Club Plaza on one of my recent trips to Kansas City, Missouri. My mother-in-law *peeked* in my bag at my assorted goodies and asked, "What are you going to do with these things?" My reply, "What?" She responded, "Do you have a project in mind for them?" Me, "Ummmmm, no." I loved that! A great comparison of how the crafty mind works vs. the rational one! I wish I was more rational sometimes!


Have a great evening! Thanks so much for stopping by! Hugs and happy stamping!
