It's time for another CRAFT Challenge! We would love for you to join this week in creating something "inspired by a song".
Our Sponsor this week is -
All Dressed Up Stamps
When I saw this image, provided by All Dressed Up Stamps, I thought of one of my favorite songs by Tim McGraw, "I Called Mama". I love the words to this song and think of my son every time I hear the line "I can always hear her smile when I call". Just thinking of my son and daughter definitely make me smile (at least most of the time =).
I hope your new year is off to a good start and that you will have some time to join in our challenge over at the CRAFT Challenge blog. For sure check out the blog to see what prize is up for grabs and to see what the other DT members have created. You are sure to be inspired.

Well it rang a couple times and she picked upI can always hear her smile when I callI just called to tell you that I loved youI was missin' you and dad, and home, that's allI got to really thinkin' this mornin''Bout what's important
