It's SPRING at My Little Bit of Whimsy!!
I am lovin' me some Louisiana weather!!! Well, this week anyway. If you know anything about the weather in the South, you know that we will have a pleasant day followed by temperatures that will make you sweat in the shade while you sit perfectly still! This weather also makes me want to scrap nothing but Spring pictures, and Stephanie Hart must have known I was in the mood. My MLBOW goodies this month consisted of some adorable cupcakes and Easter stick pins...perfection!! Take a look at my DT layouts...All Dressed Up


I love this layout! And that picture cracks me up!! It is nearly impossible to get all 6 of us to keep our clothes neat, smile, and look at the camera...and this pic proves it! The paper...none other than the oh so beautiful Dear Lizzy by American Crafts. I love this line...every stinkin' bit of it!! And how about those ribbon flowers? The very talented Danielle Flanders was recently selling kits on her blog (I bought 2...they are fabulous), and she dropped a few of those babies in each kit. They are adorable, and the colors matched the Dear Lizzy line perfectly!! The crochet flowers are some old MME, the butterflies are some yummy Jenni Bowlin, and that sweet, sweet bunny pin is the crafty work of Stephanie Hart. Whatcha Wearin' Cupcake?



Once again, my inspiration came from those adorable cupcake buttons from MLBOW. These are really a "must have" for spring and summer pics! I also drew inspiration from my dear friend Aphra's sketch at the Imaginise blog. I loved the scallops, circles, and strips of paper. Thanks girly!! I used the oh so girly Lucy Bird collection to add to the theme of my layout. I thought it was just perfect to make fun of the fact that my son gets into his sister's rain boots...my husband totally loves that!Are you ready for the weekend? Hope so because it is here! For all you teachers, my kiddos informed me this morning that we have 24 days left of school. I had to fight back the tears...woooooohooooooo!! Have a nice weekend!
