A couple of very meaningful cards...

I know October is set aside as Breast Cancer awareness month but I find myself making cards like this now. An Aunt who is near and dear to me is dealing with cancer at this time, so I am making cards as a way to show my support, care & love. 

And another...



I can only imagine how scary all of this is for her. Love you Aunt Carol!

The beginning of "Wedding Season"

Thought I would share a couple of the projects that I have been working on...
The first picture is of the wedding invitation shadow box that I did for my friends son & her soon to be daughter in law!
The second is a picture of the wedding card that will go along with the shadow box gift. Hope they like them; I had fun making them!!

Still not quite Spring...

Still a little chilly here, but we have been teased with 70's for a few days!  I am hopeful that we will at least have no more snow!!

I have another egg to share, this one is on a paper mâché egg.  It is for my aunt...she broke the last real one!!

Happy Spring!!

Well here in the Midwest they say it is Spring, but I'm not sure I believe them! 
Still a little chilly here and a few snow flurries in the last couple days.

Anyway...I have been "Thinking Spring!"...and wanted to share a little chicken egg with you.  I used the Punch Bunch Rose/Begonia punch;  I like the way the flower came out! 


Eggs are a great canvas for decorating and they are sort of a "recycle" project...gotta love that!

Wedding Invitations


Hello everyone,

I have had a request to share a couple of pictures of wedding invitation shadow boxes that I have made.  These are so fun to make!


This last picture is a graduation announcement. 
You can do wedding invitations, graduation announcements, birth announcements, First Communion or Confirmation certificates...whatever you would put into a frame!!

Have a great day and find some time to craft!!

I hang my head...

I  am a bad blog mom!  Sorry there have been no posts since Christmas.  

With my record I need to catch up, so how about something for Valentine's Day! 


I found this glittered styrofoam heart at either Michael's or Hobby Lobby and it looked naked so I dressed it up!
A few punched roses and leaves, then some little fringed "button" flowers from 1/8" quilling strips, next a couple of fringed flowers from 1/4" strips.  To top it off some die cut hearts, a stamped "Be Mine" sentiment  and a bow.
