The Great Spring'tacular Copy Cat

Today, everyone's favorite girl, Debbie of Debbiedoos, kicks off
The Great Spring'tacular Link Party Parade
with her
Magazine Copycat Party!


My copycat challenge came from a 2011 Flea Market Style magazine, below.


I wanted to have a little fun with rulers too, but wanted to make it my own.


How did I do? 
 I added some color with the dish & flatware since my rulers weren't as
colorful as the ones used in the magazine. 

See that pretty little heart? 
That was made by my friend, Ana, from  A Petite Cottage.  Ana is truly one of
the sweetest bloggers around, and she's very creative!

Please join me by linking your copycat challenge to Debbiedoos.  I hope to see
you all again tomorrow for Shannon's Spring Mantel party!

    I love how you took the idea and made it yours! I picked up 2 yardsticks at a home show this weekend. I'm thinking I should have grabbed a handful!

    Your copycat is so pretty, Gina. I love it! I adore old rulers, too.
    I recognized the sweet little heart, as I was also a recipient of some of her darling little hearts.
    Hugs, Cindy
