Face-lift

I just gave some pillows a face lift. It was my 1st time to sew in a zipper. I was super excited that I was able to figure out to make it seamless too. I completed 3 in total one Saturday afternoon.

Circus Theme Party

I threw a Circus party for my daughter. This is theme is so much fun to do. I had a photobooth and it was equip with fun props. I built a sweet shoppe for the candy bar - with the help of my husband. ;) I made my daughters outfit as a Ringmaster and her mini top hat. It was adorable! The invites we're little Circus tents.

Bye-Bye Pre-school

My older daughter is going off to kindergarten in August and she wanted to make a card for her teachers. I can't tell you how much she has learned in the short amount of time. Within 4 weeks of being at school she knew how to write her first and last name. :) It has been the best move I've ever made for her to continue to grow. Thank you to Ms. Daphne and Ms. April for everything.

Disney Princess Blanket

The girls love Disney Princesses. Who doesn't? :) I sewed up the edges and personalized these little blankets that are stroller size so it's easy to pack and won't drag on the ground. I learned from the last trip that I need to pack lightly and aviod shopping in Disneyland. I will let you know if they're a hit on the trip.

Minnie Mouse

We're on our way to 2nd annual Disneyland trip in November and I have been trying to get some of the things I want to bring ready. First, is a shirt that is personalized. So they can feel apart of the mickey mouse club. ;) I love how it turned out. I purchased a new sewing machine and I'm in love with what it can do. I used my cricut to cut out the mickey mouse head and added the ribbon to embellish it. I need to work on the stitch a little to get it just right but I quickly found out that circles are difficult to do. :) I will post a couple of other things that I'm testing out soon.

Picture Frame

I love this picture. The girls are too cute to not post. My god-daughters are twin and this was our first trip to the snow.

Going through my pictures.....

I came a across this layout that I did a for my daughter. I love that I have a place to capture the 1day she was born and the day that she turns 1 year.

Love Bug

This was fun to do. I got a bunch of stuff from Tuesday Technique. I loved this layout and thought I'd share.

Wooohooo

I just got my paper in to complete my lil' ones invitations. I will be posting pictures soon. I can't wait.

Baby Shower

Horrible picture.....yuck! These are a few of the hundred invites that I put together for my sister's baby shower. I wish I had a better picture but it's already over and done with so I can't retake them. =(

I'm working on making my invitations for my soon to be 3. I'm almost done designed them so I will share when I'm done. It's going to be a Disney Princess Party. I just finished booking of the face and ballon lady. I had her at my other daughter's party and loved her so much that I booked her again. You should check her out at www.heyballoonlady.com and tell her I sent you. I love her work and you will not be disappointed. =) See you all real soon.

Here is Anya's BF "Ian". He was too cute to not buy him. I used Copic markers to color him as well. =) Thanks for looking.

I did this sweet Anya girl with Copic markers. I stamped her 2x's and added double sided tape to make her dimensional. I hope you like her.

Alice and Wonderland Invites

I made these invitations to go with an Alice and Wonderland theme. It's a tea pot shape invite. I put double sided sticky tape behind the lid to give it character. Here is the directions on a tea bag that slid in the pocket I made behind the invite to make it look like it's in the tea pot. I hope you like it. :)

Diaper Cake

Here is a Diaper cake that I did a few years ago. I used newborn diapers for the cakes and then embellished with ribbon, faux flowers and a baby stuffed animal as topper.

Scrappin' Area

Here is my Scrappin' corner!!!! I took over the a corner section of our living room with my hobby hide away which contains most of my toys. I out grew the hall closet. ;) I love that I don't have to put my mess away. ;P

NEMO Invitations

I made these invitations ....NEMO!!! The invitations says: "Nemo has been found, come and see, and together we'll celebrate turning 2 with me." Port: (Location) Cast off: (Date) Dive Time: (Start Time) Resurface: (End Time) S.O.S (Name, phone number by date) "SEA you soon!!!" Materials I used: Tulle (cream color) Vellum (printed on my printer info) Texture blue card stock, White Card stock. I also used the cuttlebug for the Nemo. I embossed plain white card stock and hand colored the orange and black detail. I added white glitter in the white section of his stripes. I used the cricut to cut the bubbles.

Halloween Sour Cream Containers

I made these to give to my co-workers for Halloween. I made them really quickly since I didn't have a lot of time to make them. I used with printed paper from DCWV and crimped the ends with a frisker crimper. I printed a halloween image from scrapNfonts and add each of my co-workers names on the tag. I used Halloween ribbon from Michael's and filled it with yummy chocolate Hershey's kisses.

Spooky 3-D Tree

I cut this tree with Paper Doll Dress Up cartride from Cricut. I cut two indentical trees in chipboard then I cut four trees in black cardstock paper. I glue one black cardstock piece of cardstock paper on each side of the chipboard. I cut the center branch on one tree so that I can cut a slit in the middle of one of the trees and slide it over the tree without the center branch. I covered the tree with black glitter.

Chip Board Album

I made the Elephant at 9.5 inches. I used Chalk Ink, Ribbon, Skittles, Glitter, Souffle pens to embellish the pages. I made this one unisex due to not sure if my cousin's baby was going to be a girl or boy.
