I recently got the new Rectangle Frames die set from My Favorite Things. I got it mainly because the largest frame is the right size to frame their large background dies, but I also knew the smaller boxes could make it very easy to create a rectangle shaker box. I also recently got the Flower Sequin Kit from Impress Rubber Stamps. The pink flowers in the set work very nicely with the current MFT Color Palette Challenge (although much better in real life than in this photo!) The blue sequins are Doodlebug Swimming Pool sequins and the little clear sequins are Pretty Pink Posh 4 mm Sparkling Clear.
It's the beginning of a long weekend, but my family doesn't really have any plans. It's supposed to be stormy so outdoor fun will be limited. I told my family that even though Memorial Day traditionally is BBQ and parades, we will likely end up indoors catching up on the many great movies that we never made it to in the theater. So we are still looking forward to a relaxed long weekend, even if quite sedentary!
