FAMILY-THEMED DECOR ON A 12" CLOTHESPIN

One of the projects that I worked on recently was altering a 12" clothespin.  You read that right . . . a 12" clothespin!  I decided that this would make a nice family-themed decor item, and I used Stampin' Up!'s My Digital Studio software and words/sentiments from assorted digital stamp sets to create the defining flags that represent what my family means to me.  Don't you just love the "You make my whole face smile" sentiment?  That one makes me smile every time I read it.  It's from the "Sprinkled Expressions" stamp set, which is one of the Sale-a-Bration products--a FREE choice with a $50 purchase this month!  Stampin' Up!'s "Live Every Moment" Embosslits die seemed like a perfect addition to this project because it delivers a reminder that I think we can all try to live by.  Life is not always perfect, but we should LIVE (appreciate and savor) every moment and try to find the good in most every situation.
