i heart faces- paper!



My entry:
Paper....the i heart faces challenge! I Heart Faces - Photo Challenges, Tutorials and Tips
I love paper....my love of paper started with the letters from my grandfather with "fivers for fun" aka...$5. bill.  As I think about it I love books ( I want to write a children's book desperately), printed photos, stationery, the hand written note, magazines, card board boxes....paper is wonderful isn't it?  And so I share my paper moment with the boys.


 I have been waiting for the perfect challenge to enter this photo in of my cardboard-loving boys.  Last summer they tackled an ever-so-large box, where they played all day. ..all day... yep, all day!  Paper can just be so blissful! Of course, I speak for all of us. Notice the windows and the mailbox in their new paper home.  To further support the paper theme, the boys declared this box was made into a paper store where neighbors were subjected to their paper "sales".    I used picnik's "reverse process"to create this vintage feel....I just love that effect.


I am entering the photo up top....the one below is just for fun.  It was a hard choice because I love the glow on the boys in the box below (did I make the right choice? hmm).
Enjoy more great entries at i heart faces!

Love it! It's funny how often kids enjoy a big cardboard box more than toys. :)

I LOVE this picture. Seriously LOVE it! Now, just so you know, to be eligible to be a winner, you just have to pick one picture. Isn't that the hardest thing ever? I am so glad your kids are having such a fun and happy childhood!
