A few more things I did in 2016...

I've tried to stay creative this past year! A little 3-D Gnome, a wedding invitation and a graduation announcement. There were a few other things but issues with my camera on the phone. I will add those when I can. 

Hope your New Year is off to a great start!

Wow! 2017...

Where has the time gone? Seems like it should still be September...except the temperature is only 9 degrees! 2016 sure did fly by. 

Here is a wooden cross that I purchased unfinished at one of the crafty stores some time back. I spruced it up to give one of my friends!

Something a little different!

Hi everyone
I have something a little different to share.
I've made a couple signs for my friend who is a  middle school orchestra teacher. 
Hope she likes them! 

The first sign is kind of paper piecing.  The second is acrylic paint on denim canvas aged with black and brown stamping ink.

There is always something to create!

Hey Blog Buddies!

I'm still alive and kicking!  Very neglectful of this blog though!  SORRY!
Hope everyone is having a great summer.  


A couple of my friends and I had a Flamingo theme crafty day.  Above is a photo frame and below is a double diamond fold card we made using "Lawn Fawn Gnome Sweet Gnome" stamp and die set.  

Had lots of fun crafting with friends!
