Fun With Instagram & Washi Tape

My husband surprised me the other day with some Instagram prints he had mailed to us using the Postalpix app.

I attached some to the wall in Gibson's room using some Washi tape I got on sale at Anthropologie just before the Holidays.

I also used it to hang up this awesome owl alphabet print I got from Gingiber's etsy shop.

I'm kind of obsessed with Instagram and Washi tape as of late. Do you Instagram? If so, follow me @ashleymichelleturner!

Not Your Mama's Enchiladas

I try new recipes I find on Pinterest on a pretty consistent basis. It isn't often that I find a keeper. Last night restored my hope in Pinterest recipes. I made these Bubble Up Enchiladas and they were delish. Don't be fooled by the name. It's not really enchiladas. It's more like a casserole. The dish gets its name from one of the ingredients, enchilada sauce.

Oh, did I forget to mention it's only 5 WW points? This is definitely going to be a new staple in the Turner house. To get the recipe, click here.

And the Greatest of These Is...

When we moved into our house a few years ago, I found a boat load of frames that the previous owner left behind. Since then I've been having fun finding ways to use them! I spray painted one of the frames grey (I've been stuck on this color for a while now) and used some heat transfer vinyl to make this Scripture quote. After I painted the frame, I took a rough sponge and scuffed up some random places to give it a worn look. The background is leftover muslin from my Chalkboard Wreath.

I used my Silhouette Cameo to design it. For FAITH, I picked the Anderson Four Feather font (say that five times fast). I used Capitals for HOPE, and for LOVE, I picked the font, Rio Grande. When using heat transfer vinyl, you're supposed to flip the image backwards before cutting. I didn't picture this step because I almost forgot to do this! I would have been one mad chica!

I ironed the muslin.

Then, after the vinyl was cut, I positioned it on the muslin where I wanted it.

I ironed the vinyl onto the muslin. This part was tricky. Heat Transfer Vinyl has not been my friend. It's kind of tricky to work with and has been known to make one think mean thoughts.

I cut the muslin to fit the size of my frame.

And, voila! I'm pretty sure this is my favorite project yet. Faith, hope, love. And the greatest? You guessed it. Love.

Sunshine Day

We played outside in the huge park behind our house today.

It was a beautiful, warm, sunshine-y day.

I'm so glad I skipped my Sunday afternoon nap for this.
