Snowman Box

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! We ate so good we probably don't need to eat for a week! I made this cute little box for the gift giving season. I thought it would be cute filled with someones favorite goodies. It was very easy to make. I just traced the sides and made a pattern and then cut the rest of the sides from the pattern and glued everything on. It only took about 30 minutes to put together. Hope you have a great weekend! I am off to finish a few other projects. Check back tomorrow I will have some more blocks to show you! Thanks for peeking in!

Sister Block

I had an order for another sister block. The customer requested pink and brown. I thought this one came out pretty cute. In fact my sister just might get one for Christmas!! I will have three more to post tomorrow...I have tried my hand at making your own rub ons with overhead transparencies. Well see how that goes. Have a good week!

Thanksgiving Card

Better late than never...as I always say. I cracked open the Thanksgiving stamp set I bought a few months ago. Seems like life gets crazy sometimes and you make all these plans to get things done and then before you know it...where did the time go??? One of my girls had a field trip to Dillons. Her class purchased everything to make a family in need a Thanksgiving dinner. (I thought that was a great idea) Any way she asked me to make a card that the whole class could sign and this is what I came up with. I loved it. Now I just need to get a few more done **wink wink** Thanks for checkin' in. I wish you all a very blessed Thanksgiving holiday.

Band Aid Tins

These little guys are so cute. I put them together with left over paper from other projects and added a little bit of bling to each one. They went over pretty well at the last craft fair. I found these cute little half size pens that fit inside just perfect. Thanks for peekin' in...almost Friday...have a great day tomorrow!

Altered Signs

Here are a few fun signs I made for the craft fair. I went to Lowes and believe it or not there were 2x4's on the trash pile and the guy in the lumber department gave them to me. I used some paint we had around the house and I put the girls to work! They love to paint! Once the wood was dry we applied the rub on phrase. That was a little bit too boring so we had to snap things up a bit and add some texture with another color and a few flowers and ribbon. I got the idea from the CK convention...one of the girls I work with went to the Tulsa convention and saw something similar there. I had to change mine up a bit so it wasn't exactly the same **wink wink** Thanks for stoppin' in. Have a great weekend!

Paint Cans

Here is a fun item I had in the craft fair...small paint cans. You can pick them up at any hardware store. They are just perfect for gift giving. I made one similar to this one for my boss for his birthday and filled it with dark chocolate...his favorite. I decided to stick with the college themes, they seem to sell better than anything else. All of the college paper I have found has been at Scrapbook Garden. They have WSU, KState, KU, OSU, OU and Nebraska and a pretty wide selection of embellishments too. Thanks for peekin' in...thank goodness tomorrow is Friday I am so ready for the weekend!

Another Little Birdie Left the Nest

Mike's daughter Whitney has lived on her own since she was 18 and has learned how hard it is to make ends meet on one income. She has worked her tail off for the past 3 years working 2 jobs and is just ready for a change, so off she goes to Kansas City. We decided to get the family together to tell her goodbye and what a better way to do it then to sing karaoke? Right??? Well that is what we like to do and we had a great time and wished her well. We know she will do great. Thanks for peeking in.
