Breathtaking, Purposeful Clutter & A Giveaway!
Our trip across Skyline Drive, on the crest of the Blue Ridge Mountains, was awesome. Bob says I'll have to do a double truck (a 2-page layout), as we got so many great pictures.
The crocheted corner is from a store on Virginia's Rt. 11. . . the store used to be a Stagecoach House and advertised their goods as "purposeful clutter". Here is Chris' old M & M machine. . . that I've now given a purpose to store my buttons:
Bob took off the saxophone and added some buttons:
Isn't it awesome?
Finally, our annual February vacation is almost over and I will giveaway a $25
Scrapbook.com gift certificate to a follower on Sunday. Please leave a
comment below and on any other posts I may make. I've had 199
followers for several months and just a few days ago broke 200! If you post
my giveaway or blog on yours, I'll give you another chance to win (just
let me know in your comment). Thanks for the continual support!

Gorgeous view Cindy! I love Virginia!! Every time I go there, I feel like I have died and gone to heaven :) I keep trying to talk my son into going to college there.
