My November assignment for <a href="http://www.bellablvd.typepad.com/">Bella Blvd </a>was to create a Fall Altered Project. I have always been inspired by my friend, <a href="http://iamstephanie.typepad.com/myweblog/">Stephanie Hunt's</a> project she created a few years ago. I decided to go to my local craft store and picked up a tree trunk and attempt to create my own. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the completed project! </div>

I was<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> feeling so inspired I decided to make a couple paper bag treat bags for my nieces. </span></span></div>

So we got permission from Robin, who works alongside Stephanie in the office, to pick TEN lucky winners, who will each receive a Bella Blvd collection. All you need to do to be entered in the random drawings, is to leave Stephanie your birthday wishes in the comment section. You have lots of opportunities to up your chances, since you can leave a comment on each blog you visit, as you go through the blog hop. There are 26 blogs, plus the Bella Blvd blog, for a total of 27 chances to get your name in the pot.

I know my cousin Katie and I, along with our entire family, couldn't be prouder of my grandpa. We are all so thankful for everything he has done & cherish all those who like my grandpa have been a part of the military. Thank you all for your service & dedication.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzNkVYwVJME7KfYpSslY6wmy6zsQgA1fp2GjD-c-1be1YmofU2EpDash_j5vpUDlWdLyxZjJDAsW5N-4szZD9Ehv54QM5dmHTFhzFDsi8-XkOCmoM7RlKngH2Yl7ENb7v_n7BmyU9hRqQ/s1600/IMG_2932.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzNkVYwVJME7KfYpSslY6wmy6zsQgA1fp2GjD-c-1be1YmofU2EpDash_j5vpUDlWdLyxZjJDAsW5N-4szZD9Ehv54QM5dmHTFhzFDsi8-XkOCmoM7RlKngH2Yl7ENb7v_n7BmyU9hRqQ/s320/IMG_2932.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673781250656889810" /></a>Today I have two different birthdays to celebrate. My sweet little niece, Molly is 3 today! She has grown up so much this past year. This first picture is from February 14th! I love to spend time with the girls on Valentines Day!

Molly has definitely got that down.

Molly was so good throughout the whole game. She of course ran around a little bit because she has so much energy, but I was able to capture this photo which is rare. She doesn't usually sit still. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjddkyymxQDVgJQ-7NwPb9VfC4TCG9j6pcZIWZXmbQU-miku1Knw4aSNVo2fGYKbc9qF8zJ8ceQZWP0tqM-dXwEjW4aMM5AZWhZMeFanrILG_NFqOTv10BsOv_Fx5LYzJ-DetWNkIuA8-A/s1600/IMG_4961.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjddkyymxQDVgJQ-7NwPb9VfC4TCG9j6pcZIWZXmbQU-miku1Knw4aSNVo2fGYKbc9qF8zJ8ceQZWP0tqM-dXwEjW4aMM5AZWhZMeFanrILG_NFqOTv10BsOv_Fx5LYzJ-DetWNkIuA8-A/s320/IMG_4961.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673779213712810386" /></a>Molly started to take gymnastics this year! Dan & Adrea thought it would be something fun for her to do...since Avery has school and mommy is having another baby. This would be something just for Molly! :) She loves it! She is so energetic & has no fear so it is perfect for her. I hope she continues to like it because I would love to see her grow into a gymnast. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaILeUlZQ134yvOvi_Lwr_4Mue70fMFDL55Os5G9FBNlqkkdHjhUIESpb2jHXLSQtAMMHAnvUkwfuFdtvcKH4mYoX5W27G98gz4lWVmIJJuLxaQj2E-czOjOXf1XmiZ21uDuFXpHaMmj4/s1600/IMG_5059.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaILeUlZQ134yvOvi_Lwr_4Mue70fMFDL55Os5G9FBNlqkkdHjhUIESpb2jHXLSQtAMMHAnvUkwfuFdtvcKH4mYoX5W27G98gz4lWVmIJJuLxaQj2E-czOjOXf1XmiZ21uDuFXpHaMmj4/s320/IMG_5059.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5673778180911292578" /></a>The second birthday today is...Maddie or Lynnie.

I had so much fun creating this layout. I had to use the Family Dynamix Just Write Stickers on my layout. I ended up creating this layout with one piece of cardstock, stickers, <a href="http://www.mayarts.com/">ribbon</a>, chipboard and buttons. I did not use any pattern paper.<br /><div><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHyMwxJP9Ca05D4jRg7zUiKQIdpCZTqrUvCXcFVm4KdQo9hfqvTUMawXZ3GiOb8x2AWhZ07FTZDFf4VlABDnV8K8XnMTHz_z6x11o58zCnpaPcmHQQO3UJImCFBKsWOBMcsmP7ikAjvx8/s1600/FDJUSTWRITE_MB1.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 319px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHyMwxJP9Ca05D4jRg7zUiKQIdpCZTqrUvCXcFVm4KdQo9hfqvTUMawXZ3GiOb8x2AWhZ07FTZDFf4VlABDnV8K8XnMTHz_z6x11o58zCnpaPcmHQQO3UJImCFBKsWOBMcsmP7ikAjvx8/s320/FDJUSTWRITE_MB1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593019881989885330" /></a>I loved using the journaling stickers to create a collage to fill up with song lyrics.
