past projects

well at Staff conference Ema attended a VBS where she made a sketch of herself as a soldier.
The girls are really into snow and snow men so I thought we would do this fun project, this is our family as snow people...The last picture well I love to do things creatively with food sometimes and these are our Octodogs that I found in a kids cookbook...very easy but fun.... Lastly are our homemade birdfeeders...

tea cozy and booties

These are two of my recent projects that I have been working on. The tea cozy is a gift for my friends birthday. This is the second one I have made and enjoyed doing it..

The booties took me more time to make. As my crocheting is rusty and in understanding the directions after several failed attempts I finally got it. These too are a gift for a friend who just had a little girl...

MTSC28 Lord Have Mercy's Sketch challenge from last week

My hubbies Birthday was just Monday and I made this card using Mercy's sketch challenge

MTSC 25

So I am a little behind considering the new Tuesday challenge has come out today. This is my first time doing this. But I had two friends have baby's recently so I thought I would give it a try. Thank you Mercy for the challenge I enjoyed it.

Gift card holders

Found this handy little gift card holder at
http://www.papercraftplanet.com/video/envelope-gift-card-holder-1
Enjoyed making them and giving them for Christmas. We give a lot of gift cards so it was nice to make them a little more personal.
I changed it a bit adding some of my own stuff but the construction was the same.

My new projects

I found in one of my paper crafting books these sweet little boxes to make. So I am making several to put gifts inside for Christmas.











A lot of my friends use note cards to say thanks and such. So I decided as a gift I would make them some cards to just that. This is a recent one for one of my friends birthday's. I just got this new Fiskars cutter that I really enjoyed using to make these shapes.
