Fun Projects

Hello!! Thanks again to everyone who still keeps up with me!!

Just few quick things to show you!!

First, following up from the last post, is the Lollypop Rose Bouquet for DD's favorite teacher. She was named ACSI Teacher of the Year!! Mrs. Hiscock teaches math, so we used paper that was covered with numbers. We thought it turned out cute!!

Next would be a project DD chose for the two of us to do. She chose what to make along with the embellishments, and wanted us to make them matching. It was cute!! So this is our creations:

Last but not least, a layout I did for a scraplifting challange over at Scrappy Jo's!! This was so much fun to create!! The pictures are of the baby birds that were born in the tree outside our kitchen window. They grew up so fast and the last picture (on the right) is one of the little birds after he flew out of the nest. He looked so scared!!

The GORGEOUS organza flower was a created by my friend Kima. Thank you so much honey!! It was PERFECT for this layout!! Kima has a fabulous Etsy site where you can buy some of her awesome flowers. Check her out here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/joakima

Well, that's it for now. I'm working on a secret project for DD. I hope to finish it up by the end of the week. If it turns out nice, I'll post it for you to see!! *L*

Until next time....tootles!!

Scrapping and Creating!!

I know I say it all the time, but only because it's true...

I LOVE TO SCRAP!!

I have a wonderful new scrap subject!! A brand new great neice!! She looks so precious!! I can't wait to see her for myself. Until then, I have these great pictures to admire!! I've actually made 4 of these little accordian albums so far. One for Grandma, one for Great Aunt Lavine, and one for Great Grandma...plus this one. I just forgot to take pictures of all the other ones I've made, because I was in hurry to get them to them so they could show off the beautiful addition to our family!!

I still had more pictures of Nic's beautiful baby so, I decieded to be creative. I got a fab stationary box from Tammy Sue over at SB dot com, that had the BEST crackle paint on it!! So I was dying to try it!! I went to Michael's and picked up some Tim Holtz crackle paint, and a little oval wooden frame. . Tammy Sue has perfected the crackle, because mine looks nothing like hers!! *L* It didn't turn out quite the way I thought it should, but it is a very intresting effect!! You can't really see the cracks here because they are small!! I add lace, a few 'sticks' and a bird to finish it off.

This was made just for fun!! As you know I've been making these little roses. Well, I got a grand idea to put a lolly in the middle of the rose and put in a little arrangement. I thought it would be cute for a little fun gift or something. DD told me she wants to make one for one of her teachers for the end of the year!! That sounded cool!! So I see more of these in our future!!

Thank you so much Kima!!
