grateful for home…

My design team assignment for this week on the Doodlebug blog was to create a layout about something I am grateful for.  I decided to put together a fun little layout about our new home. 

grateful_for_home_layoutWe have been in our home for almost a year now, and it has been such a wonderful place to live.  From the first moment we walked through the door just over a year ago, it felt like home.  We had looked at dozens of houses – and there were quite a few that we liked…but this one definitely felt different.

And now…a few details about the layout.  I used the “Welcome Home” line by Doodlebug Design for my layout.

I just love all of the colorful little houses on the patterned papers, stickers, and other accents.

And the rub-on quote is one of my favorite!  We truly are grateful for our home – but mostly for “the life that’s lived there.”  I love this time of year and the opportunity to really think about all that I have and all that I am grateful for.  Regardless of trials and any difficult circumstances we have to face, I feel so incredibly blessed.
