Snow - Paper Issues

My favorite time of the month is Pinspire Me Mood Board day on the Paper Issues Blog.  Well, actually, designing the board is my favorite.  I just love how things come together when clicking through ideas on Pinterest.  If you are interested in following me over there, go to PINTEREST.  I have lots of idea boards and fun things to be inspired by.  

But, on the Paper Issues Blog today, a few of the team members came together to share their take on the new January Mood Board.   You too can play along over on the PIFF Facebook page.  Create a new project, upload it to the PIFF page and be entered into a drawing for a prize to the PI store.  

I used Sweater Weather from American Crafts for my project today.  My boys love playing in the snow.  I do too but I would much rather take photos.  This boy here, could stay out all day!  But wants hot cocoa immediately after coming in.  Who doesn't?

6th Grade - Paper Issues

Good morning!  It is Pinspire Me Mood Board time over at Paper Issues.  Each month, I create a mood board off of fun photos and inspiration that I see on Pinterest.  I create a board for the team and our friends as a challenge.  Anyone can play along.  Create something from the board and upload it to the Paper Issues Friends and Fans Facebook page, under Pinspire Me for a chance to win a prize to the PI store.  

I used Crate Paper Cool Kid for my layout.  I love the colors, the stripes from the crayons and lockers and obviously the theme.  Because there was no purple in the collection, I brought in a straw and old buttons to tie in the color.  Grab this collection or anything else you may want from the PI store for 20% off when you use code: Mary-Ann.

Let's Hold Hands - Paper Issues

I created the below Pinspire Me Mood Board for Paper Issues.  

It may be one of my favorite boards ever!  

Now do you see why?  Donuts, hearts, pretty birds and candy!  

The team creates projects off of this board for inspiration to our followers.  I created a PINK layout, cause any chance I get, I try and use pink!  I was also inspired by the I Love You sign language hand signal.  I used the small signal card from Crate Paper Cute Girl on my layout. It is mint green, small, yet perfect for the board!  Grab it from Paper Issues for 20% off with Code: Mary-Ann.

My boys are completely inseparable.  Randy always asks if Bub will hold his hand in public when he is 15.  Here he is only 5 but now he is 11 now and he holds our hands all the time.  

Bird - Paper Issues

It is Pinspire Me Monday on the Paper Issues blog today!  It is a new year and PI has a fresh new look.  The new look is really spot on.  If you have ever ordered from Cassie, you know that she wraps everything in black and white houndstooth and pretty red ribbon.  It is seriously like opening a present every time you get a box.  Which is often for me!  Here is a peek at the new look.  

Here is the January 2017 Pinspire Me Mood Board!

Here is my layout based on this inspiration.  I was inspired by the hanging down 2017, the gold stars, and the color gold.

How about a bit of inspiration to get your creative juices flowing a little.  School has started and I am hoping to get back to my routine.  A mood board is just what I need!

I have designed a new mood board on the Paper Issues Blog today.  Several of the team members joined me in creating off of this September Pinspire Me Mood Board.  Hope you will go check it all out HERE.  

I used Crate Paper's Cool Kid for my layout.  Last year, I volunteered at the school to help the teachers.  This gave me the chance to check on my boys desk and to leave a little love note.  Which he told me not to do again, by the way.
