So I decided it was about time Mama got to have a little fun, too!
Yep, that's right. I washi-fied my iPad!
Remember I mentioned (maybe a few times?) that I was pretty excited about my new (3rd generation) iPad!?
Well, I also got the nifty smart cover that goes with it .... it automatically wakes and sleeps your iPad just by opening and closing the cover! Very cool.
I chose the light gray version.
I picked a couple cute washi tapes from my collection, and smoothed it onto the raised sections of the cover.
Then, because I wanted nice and clean lines along the edges, I got out my nifty exacto knife ....
And sliced (VERY CAREFULLY) around the raised sections of the cover. (This was surprisingly simple to do -- the washi cuts away so easily.)
I love that this simple addition makes my iPad - MY iPad.
SO CUTE.
And if I want to, I can simply peel the washi tape off (SUPER EASY) anytime .... and change colors!!! I can coordinate with the holidays, the seasons, or whatever I want! ....Not to mention, the washi tape will help protect the cover, as well -- because, who am I kidding? Little Miss Lucy uses the iPad more than I do! :)~

O.M.Word! That's adorable! I made the crock pot chicken recipe then followed with the chicken tortilla soup recipe.....LOVED both! They will both be going on my "Tried and True" pinterest board. Diego even helped me cut the bell peppers for the soup. Thanks Bec!!
