Make It Monday: Creating Background Patterns With Border Dies

Hello there! It's my turn to share a video with you for this week's Make It Monday challenge for Papertrey Ink! This week, it's all about using those border dies in your stash, to create really gorgeous background patterns!!

Be sure to head over to Nichole Heady's blog to add a link to your project, if you play along with the challenge.....I'd love to see what you come up with!!

A complete supply list can be found at the end of the video.

In other news, we watched the first episode of season 2 of Downton Abbey last night on PBS! It was soooooo good!! Did you watch it? I'm already planning to watch it again, just so I don't miss anything....so many twists and turns! I always love cozy Sunday nights at home with Bartley and Windsor, but this will make them even more fun for a few weeks! ;)

Have a great day, Dearies.....see you back here tomorrow with my first countdown projects!

Hi there! I'm Dawn McVey and I'd like to welcome you to my little corner of the internet. My hope is that you'll find this place warm and welcoming! I'm an artist with a heart for God. I worked as a graphic designer for ten years, before starting my own art business. I love color and all things vintage! My handsome husband, Bart, is also my best friend. I was extremely sick for more than 8 years and eventually had a rare small intestine transplant on October 28, 2017! During those years of being so sick, I got lots of practice learning how to choose joy in the midst of extreme suffering! ;) I'm so, so grateful for all that the Lord has done in our lives to bless us and to bring me to a place of health! He used that long season of illness to draw us closer to Him and we've also seen Him use our transplant story in amazing ways, to pour faith, hope and joy into the lives of others. Those years of struggle were so hard, but I wouldn't trade them because I can see how He was with us every step of the way and how He was using every bit of it for our good and His glory. My hope now, is that I can encourage you to choose joy in the midst of your own struggles. While you're here, I hope you laugh or smile or find some inspiration and encouragement. I hope you enjoy your time with me and ultimately, I hope you see some of HIM while you're here. He is everything. Much love, friends…
