 Hello and welcome back!!!  So glad to have you!! 
Today is Paper Hoarder Guest Designer day and WOW!!!  Our guest, Patrice Carrow, has totally ROCKED this challenge!!!  The challenge was to make a Christmas themed tag. She is the best at vintage and shabby chic and this tag will totally prove that!!  I am thankful to have her in my life. She is such an inspiration to me and many others. Ok.. on with the tag ;)  

Ok.. now isn't this just GORGEOUS!!!!!  Patrice has an online store where you can purchase the items she used. The store is Ooh lala Vintage Treasures. Her store is a sponsor of Paper Hoarders so.. all the yummy laces and such.. yep, come from her store!!!  Be sure to go visit if you like anything vintage or shabby chic. The prices are AWESOME and shipping is FAST!!!

Now.. onto some personal bloggy time. I know I don't usually do this, but today is a special day and I wanted to share something with you all. I hope Colton's story can inspire some of you who may have a lil one, or a big one, who doesn't "talk" like the others.

Happy 4th Birthday Colton!!

My lil guy has Apraxia , which is a speech disorder. He has came a LONG way and I am sooo proud to be his mommy. I want to include a couple videos I took of him.. more for just me, but to share with you. HERE  is a link to Colton's page on the Cherab site. You can read the updates and watch additional videos.

Paper hoarders DT "Thankful"

Hello everyone!! Welcome back!! 
Today is our Paper hoarders Design Team Day. The theme is "Thankful". Thanksgiving is coming close and most families start thinking about what they are all thankful for. I am pretty sure we all have a list that would look similar. The DT did ONE project and you shall see how NOT similar they are.
