Courage.

I feel like I haven't paper crafted in FOREVER... so I am making it a pont to pull out the paper and glue and make some cards or layouts... Here is what I made today while I had some down time. I have been wanting to use this stamp since I recieved it and I am very happy with the way this card turned out. The stamp set is called Courage and is from Stampin Up. I added a little color using my Prisma colors and blending it with Gamsol. I used some red and blue paper to mate the image on and added some eyelets for a little extra detail. I will be sending this card along with some goodies to a family friend who is deployed right now. TFL

Happy Valentines Day!!

Hope everyone has a great Valentines Day tomorrow!! I want to share these cute lollipop holders I did for my son's class. These were super simple to make! All you need is some cardstock, paper trimmer, scissors, stamps, ink and glue.. I used stamps from Technique Tuesday, I believe the set is calles Love Notes. I added some stickles for a little bling and put all the cut stamped images on pop dots. TFL!

Wreaths

I wanted to share a few non cricut, non silhouette projects. These are 2 fabric wreaths I have made recently. One of them is a really rich red with Hawaiian flowers on it, and the other is a very subtlr and pretty cherry blossom and sage green.

monogrammes

I have been having a lot of fun with these split letter monogrammes. I really enjoy all of the fun fonts you can do this with as well..

More on my vinyl kick.

I swear I'm still here!..lol... We are preparing to move so things have been a bit hectic and to top it off my husband is away for training for the month so I am going at it alone.. Here are a few vinyl designs I have done. I LOVE working with vinyl, so much fun.

better late than never!

So this is a REALLY late post... I realized that I never shared my turkey treats I made for my son's class.. These little guys are so cute! I used the Stampin Up sweat treat cups and sweat centers stamp set for these. I also used a variety of punches for create the feathers. This is not my original idea, I had seen a few variations on the internet and I choose the one I liked the best. They were fairly easy to make and the kids lived them!

christmas cards!

I thought I would share that Christmas cards I made this year. I used Stampin Up stuff to make my cards. Simple and I enjoyed no machines and just using rubber, ink and paper!
