<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Hi everyone,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">Well, as usual life gets busy raising a family, going back to school and homework every nite takes priority over other things. However, with that said I still try to find time to sneek in a little something here and there. So a dear friend of mine is due to have a baby girl here very soon. So once I had heard it was a girl I couldn't wait to get to work on this sweet little album I put together for her.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">I used the irresistable Hello Baby line from Simple Stories. The babies room is going to decorated in pink, gray and white. So the paper couldn't have been more perfect for this baby album. I started out by using just basic chipboard and covering it with the paper. From there its all about adding and making the embellishments. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This paper line comes with so many sweet little stickers and die cuts. I used doilies and glittered tons of embellishments her and there. Another one of my most favorite things is making flowers from felt with some die cuts that I absolutley love</span>.</div>

<span id="goog_1625344463"></span><span id="goog_1625344464"></span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I used all different kinds of textures from vintage lace to burlap flowers. I made little pockets from the cards that come with the paper line as well. Inside the pockets I just created little tags to go inside with some sweet little baby sentiments and tied the tops with some fringe type cording and seam binding.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">For this little sentiment I just created a fold out so that she could add more pictures to the inside when you unfold it.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This last page was made by creating two little fold outs and both incorporate little spaces for 12 little photos on each fold out. So one is 1-6 months and the other is 7-12 months. So it comes out like an according almost. I failed to take a picture of it unfolded but I hope you can get the idea.</span> <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Below is a little gift bag I had made for the album to go inside of.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This is just a plain white bag that I got from Michael's and then just used a cut out from a Kaiser Kraft line. Placed it on the front of the bag and added some more ribbon and lace with a few flowers and viola, there you have the perfect little gift bag and so easy to do.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Here is a door banner that with a little help from my friends and a wonderful machine called the Shilouette I was able to create this door banner for my daughters Kindergarten teacher. This was done for Teacher Appreciation Week and her teacher loves frogs. So each of the frogs have their names next to them and as you can see the girls have flowers and the boys have the cattails behind them.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I created the cattails by cutting them out on to butcher paper and then I just added some </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Flower Soft to them and they actually came out looking pretty good. I made the butterflies using a Tim Holtz die and then just added glitter to them.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> later added some grass to the bottom to make it more complete. It just seemed unfinished to me without it. :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Well ladies, sadly this is my last week designing for <a href="http://www.theshabbytearoom.blogspot.com/">The Shabby Tea Room</a>. Debbie, again thank you so very much for the opportunity to be the April Month Guest Designer and to be a part of all the wonderful designers there. I have really enjoyed this and hope that all of you that praticipted had as much fun as I did. So here again is the inspiration photo that challenged my creativity in a little different way.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZPCvUJiOVckmyNGwbsk9cG5qXpWox5nFJvfseMoZkDMZlFNaMmhKuvllmn_tW8-7801KqoFnbI_Mz2ADYgbT5m4GwN-aEC_aOJCLMvuMmshap8wN6TDByy100uUSnPEb8Tjr30pRkjGI/s1600/TSTR+_216.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZPCvUJiOVckmyNGwbsk9cG5qXpWox5nFJvfseMoZkDMZlFNaMmhKuvllmn_tW8-7801KqoFnbI_Mz2ADYgbT5m4GwN-aEC_aOJCLMvuMmshap8wN6TDByy100uUSnPEb8Tjr30pRkjGI/s1600/TSTR+_216.JPG" height="320" width="240" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">For this paticular challenge we had to use the Tic Tac Toe method using any three elements in a row. Weather it be horizontal, diagonal or vertical we had to use all the elements in each row from whatever row we picked. I chose the diagonal row which included, pennants, ribbon and vintage trim. All three of which are my fave's. So instead of making a card i decided to change it up a bit and made something using an 8 x 8 canvas as the background. And so here it is:</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIlfim-IaBAvcAHd3gA_ttvYBkTiQMkCRHXBch2sHwDloWtdEM9B17hxAHqWpEaVCw5nVphNQmmCC7bfuLLurzkhtv1juzE-IsSkktjQ6usHi9upF9MxrmaOlqSZDMSsjXGLp1mHrp-_Q/s1600/047.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIlfim-IaBAvcAHd3gA_ttvYBkTiQMkCRHXBch2sHwDloWtdEM9B17hxAHqWpEaVCw5nVphNQmmCC7bfuLLurzkhtv1juzE-IsSkktjQ6usHi9upF9MxrmaOlqSZDMSsjXGLp1mHrp-_Q/s1600/047.JPG" height="280" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I started by inking the edges of my canvas and then using my all time favorite Prima line. After laying down the background I then created a pocket for the front of the canvas. I then took various shaped tags and covered them with the patterned paper, adhered some metal knobs and then tied bows out of thread around the knobs and then inserted those inside the pocket. I took a doily and cut it in half and placed one half on the inside and the other half on the outside edge of the pocket. Added some vintage trim along the top and took a wooden saying and painted it and then inked the edges. The flowers are mostly paper but the one in the center was made using ribbon with a rhinestone placed in the center. The two envelopes are from a die cut and I nestled those inside by using a little Tim Holtz pin. I then took one of my doll stamps and created her by stamping her on to patterned paper and cutting out the pieces. I then just finished it off with some resin flowers, pearls and the pennant at the top is just cut out using the Prima paper. The butterfly was also cut out from the paper as well as using a punch for the smaller ones. Add some rhinestone trim and your project is complete! :)</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So again, I started with my basic cream colored cardstock and my patterend paper. As you can see I use cream a lot as my background for many things. I might have to think about changing that up some. :) Ok, so I then just chose the patterned paper and started layering as I go. I used felt for all of the flowers you see as well as the hearts. Some paper leaves, seam binding and another little Easter sentiment.</span></div>

I hope you have had a wonderful week! Well, with Easter coming upon very soon I was very excited to do this project not only beacause of the color scheme but because I just love Easter! :) So here we are with another fun challenge at <a href="http://www.theshabbytearoom.blogspot.com/">The Shabby Tea Room</a> with some of the sweetest shabby chic colors, this color combo is my all time favorite. So here is the card I created based on the inspiration photo.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"></span><br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The challenge was to add polka dots and stripes and that was right up my ally! :) </span></div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Again, I started by using cream colored cardstock as my base and then from there started to layer my patterned paper. This paticular line of paper I ordered from Sweden. It was one of those things I just had to have!! :) So I used a floral pattern, a stripe pattern and some polka dots. The sweet little bird atc card, the rose embellishment and the bird were also part of the paper line. I then used my favorite seam binding, some pins and another tag to say "Easter Wishes." I absolutley love Easter, it is one of my favorite times of the year. This day has such special meaning and I hold it very dear to my heart. I then added a chipboard frame, glittered it and pop dotted it so that I could give it a dimensional look. I then added some metal trinkets and a resin rose to complete the card. </div>

<div align="center">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">This is the card I created using these happy, beautiful, colors that remind me so much of Spring! </span><span style="font-family: Georgia;">I started by using just a basic cream colored cardstock, and then just adding the pieces of patterned paper atop of that. I used a border punch for the bottom part of the card and then used my sewing machine and sewed the two pieces together. I then just added some lace and some sweet seam binding along with a tag that I inked around the edges and then added a sweet sentiment. The mason jar is also from the same paper line I used for the card. The felt shaped hearts and flower are die cuts that I often use for many occasions. I then added the two leafs and a bit of twine to finish it all off. </span><br />

Here is a little something I fixed up for a friend of mine. She had been given this one year as a gift at Christmas which happened to be painted black around the outside and the inside had an array of colors that didn't quite go with her decor. So I decided to give it a little face lift and gave it a Shabby Chic look. It was quite fun to see the change take place from drab to fab!! :)</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I started out by just painting the outside in a cream color shade, distressing it some and adding an aged look to it around the edges. She then gave me some papers from Prima that she liked and so I cut them out to fit the centers on the two spaces. From there I used some pennant die cuts that I had and made little banners on each corner.</span> </div>

But I wanted to share these little goody bags that I had made for some of my dear friends and the sweet teachers at school. I hope to have some Easter shabby yumminess to share with you all in a few days. But for now here is a belated post from February. :)</span><br />

These sweet bags were made by simply using some Valentine's paper from Recollections I purchased from Michael's. I then used a heart die as well as a heart punch from Fiskars. I fould these cute little heart shaped pink doilies on line and just placed those inside the little glassine bags, which were also purchased as Michael's.</div>

Then I just stuffed the insides with some of their favorite candies. Just a sweet special way to say "Happy Valentine's Day." </div>

Well I just created my first little mixed media piece. I know that it's probably not the authentic kind of mixed media but this was my interpretation of it. I had fun creating it regardless of the right or wrong of it but I just absolutley love these stamps. So here is the end result of my experiment...:)<br />

I created her by first stamping her onto some old vintage book paper. Then I cut the image out and then from there pieced her together with her dress being stamped out onto some patterned cardstock and then her pockets. Added some glitter for some highlights and colored her in using some Copic Markers. This mixed media stuff is a little out of my comfort zone but I still enjoyed making it. On the canvas part I added some Acrylic paint after I had used the honeycomb template and some modeling paste. Let that dry and then added some more colors using some Tim Holtz Distress paints. Cut out some words, inked them and then modge podged them and added them to the canvas. I also had some clock stamps randomly around the canvas and then added the modge podge to certain places to create a blending affect. Overall she is just so cute but if you haven't ever tried this I hope you take the chance to give it a shot.</div>

I am not that great at sewing but with a little help and guidance from my dad all went pretty well. Both of my parents are great at sewing. My dad earlier on in life actually wanted to be a shoemaker, he loved doing that but then ended up working at a SINGER sewing machine store repairing the machines. He also taught women how to sew. He currently owns his own upholstery business restoring the insides of old vintage cars. This happened after many years of working for the city and having to retire earlier then he expected and being that he was such a work-a-holic had to do something instead of sitting around and so here he is. <br />
<br />
My mom on the other hand used to make some beautiful things. I remember as a little girl watching her make clothes, to costumes, to doing very intricate things she made by hand and selling them at the local Hallmark store there in town where she later became very good friends with the owner of the store and ended up working there for many years later. So with that little bit of information here are the latest pics...<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With some vintage fabric and a little lace its amazing what one can make. I wrapped some burlap around the cushion with some vintage cotton lace on top of that. Used a felt rose with some Prima leaves that happened to compliment the fabric perfectly. My mother happened to stumble accross these sweet little spools already wrapped with string and I just continued to add some seam binding, old keys, some buttons and some pins to complete my little work of art. I hope I have the same success with future sewing....we shall see!</div>

Another exciting thing to share is that my parents also seem to love vintage stuff as much as I do and my parents have had some of these items at their house for quite a while now and I just had to take them off their hands....:)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I talked my mother into parting with this beautiful old antique harvest table she had just sitting on her back porch. This will eventually make its way into my crafting room as my new desk. With a little help from dad and a little TLC we were able to fix her up a bit without taking away to much authenticity. Which to me gives it so much character and history.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you can see from the photo there are also some other vintage goodies and one being from my dad was this old 1920's Remington Standard typewriter. I need to give it a little love but I think when I am finished she will look like a beauty. I also acquired this vintage milk container that my mom gave me for Mother's Day that she found at an antique store where she lives. </div>

And lastly, a girlfriend of mine came accross this cabinet that she had to tourment me with. I was hoping to find another one but was not successful, until she had told her daughter about it and she happened to find one for me online. I don't believe it is anything vintage but I loved how it looked and had to have one and so here it is. So I am very excited with my new goodies and had to share them with you. </div>

These were made using the new BoBunny line.<br />

This was a cute little gift bag I made using a paper bag and again using my Lopptie Loop die from Papertrey Ink to make the bow and then I just cut straight pieces of the Star paper and placed them all around the bow. I added some twine, burlap, and some felt with a little crystal button in the center and then just made a little tag to say Celebrate tucked inside the bow.</div>

I then made a 12 x 12 layout using the same paper and embellishments that coordinated with the BoBunny paper.</div>

Well this year I got my little ones involved with making some Mother's Day gifts for all their gramma's. We have 3 sets of them and the kids just love making things for them. I actually saw this idea on pinterest and had to try it out since I love Mason Jars so much and I think they came out pretty cute and the kids loved making these. I also added some tags with a sentiment on the backs of them in place of their cards.<br />

These little tags were also a lot of fun to make. I just used various cardstock, some digital vintage clipart, lace, seam binding, some felt roses, and some little sparkly embellishments here and there and tied them around the tops of the jars.</div>

I also created these little cones using a new Sizzix die called Cone, Faceted. I then stuffed them with some shredded tissue paper and then added some fun stuff for all the gammies inside. These were so fun to put together and I will be using this die quite frequently, I'm sure of it!</div>

Sorry that these are a little hard to see so I will show you and individual shot of each one of them. I just used some of my favorite cardstock as the cone shape and from there just embellished to my little hearts desire of whatever made me happy. </div>

Oh well, I'm still going to try to post more often but in the meantime...here is another Explosion Box that I created for my son's 2nd grade teacher this year at school. I just loved the paper line that was used. It was Authentique's "Curiousity" line and loved it so much. It couldn't of been a better fit for the occasion. :) Anyways, here are some pics.<br />

The embellishments that came with the paper line were adorable as well. The bow I created using the Looptie Loop die by Papertrey Ink. I think thats the name of it, anyways, I love it. I've used it for many occasion!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had a chain link that I got at Michael's and added some little addition cards, numbers and some other little trinkets that meant something to the teacher, ie-grade, teachers name, date that kind of thing.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I again used some seam binding, a decorative edge border punch, stickers, and tag embellishments for the inside of the box that all realated to teacher stuff. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also created a gift card holder and inserted and gift card inside the box as well as another little thank you for all she has done and what a wonderful and loving teacher she is.</div>

Hi all, here are a few goodie bags that I made for some friends of mine for Valentine's Day. I couldn't resist since they are too cute. I made them using the Tim Holtz "In the Bag" die cut from Sizzix. On the front of each of the goodie bags I just applied some patterned paper from "Glitz" and the cute little Valentine images on the front I printed off the computer. I then just embellished them with some vintage lace, bakers twine, pearls and some hearts. Now all there is to do is to fill them will sweet little Valentine's candies.</div>

The enamel number 14 is from Tim Holtz strung around with some bakers twine and the "forever" sentiment is a sticker that is also from Tim Holtz. I used a heart punch at the bottom and just stitched the center with the sewing machine and added some pearls.</div>
<div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">

The little tabs are from Papertrey Ink that I attached to the top of the Valentine image with the sewing machine and again added a little sticker sentiment to the center. Wrapped some bakers twine around and added a little heart to the center of the bow. The little key holes are from Melissa Frances.</div>

I have missed my blog and creating things to post but it is nice to know that I can always come back to it when the time allows. So I have created a few little Valentine's goodies that I hope you will enjoy. I know that Valentine's is just around the corner but I just had to post the few things that I did create just because of how much I love this day. I've created some cards using the Glitz "Hello Friend" paper line along with their embellishments that coordinate. I cannot tell you enough how much I just love this paper line. Everything about it is yummy... :)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I used their cardstock and epoxy stickers, some washi tape, hand dyed seam binding, some lace, pearls and from a pale pink shade of vellum punched out some butterflies using a Martha Stewart punch. Added a tag with a little sentiment and tied it with some twine and sweet little felt heart.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With this next card I simply took an embossing template and embossed the front of the card. I then added my tag in the center that I downoladed online and just added some embellishments using a Papertery Ink die at the bottom of the tag, added some pearls and seam binding, a little twine and some washi tape and there you have it. The little bottle cap I made myself.</div>

The next card uses the same paper with again some Papertrey Ink border dies, some heart dies also from Papertrey Ink, my sewing machine and some felt. I added some seam binding, pearls and a sweet sentiment at the bottom attached to a Maya Road heart pin. The 14 sticker is from Glitz as well.</div>

This next card uses again the Glitz paper along with the sentiment epoxy stickers. The tulle is from Melissa Frances and the chipboard pieces are from the Glitz line. I used some more felt hearts, a Maya Road pin, some seam binding and another little bottle cap in the center of the bow.</div>

This last card uses again the same papers along with a Papertrey Ink heart border die. I also used a heart doily and then used another printable that I found on line. I added a felt heart, some seam binding and attached a fabric rose to the center with another Maya Road pin. The sentiment on the tag is a stamp that is also from Papertrey Ink.</div>

I have had many a things going on in my life just as we all do and find myself trying to cherish each and every day I have and not take the things that I have nor the people that I love and have in my life for granted. Life takes on many changes that a lot of us never think will ever happen to us or the ones we love but it does and it just makes you stop and think about how precious life is. So I have taken some time away for a bit to just sit back and take one day at a time and value everything around me and what's in it.<br />
<br />
So here I am to post a few things that I had worked on but didn't get the chance to post and of course some last minute Valentine cards and gift bags that I just had to share since I just adore Valentine's Day and everything about it. So with all that being said, here are some cards that I did a while back using the Prima Tea Thyme paper line. There is no way I wasn't going to be hoarding some of this stuff...are you kidding!! How can you not love this paper??? My oh my! So here is the first card I used with coordinating cardstock and everything Tea Thyme, even the name is adorable! :)<br />

With these two cards I used the Tea Thyme paper, Martha Stewart border punch and a tag punch that I am not sure from where. With the flowers I just took a glue pen along the edges and then added glitter to them to make them stand out and of course nothing would be complete with out some pearls added here and there and some seam binding. The straight pins are from Maya Road.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On this card I used some of the Papertrey Ink die cuts, some buttons, twine, seam binding and of course some pearls and inked the edges with Chestnut Roan Chalk Ink. The "Thanks" sentiment is from the paper line as well.</div>

These next two cards are also using the same paper line and some of the Tea Thyme chipbaord embellishments. Using the Tea Thyme paper I cut out the banner on the one card and also just simply cut traingles to make my banner on the other card. Used my sewing machine to stitch around the edges and embellished it with lots of goodies.</div>

The last card uses a simple doily and again the papers from Tea Thyme stitched around the edges. The jar in the center is from Papertrey Ink. The heart and the circles are just using a simple punch and the sentiment inside the heart is from Prima as well. Add a little glitter with some buttons and bakers twine and you have a sweet little card for any occasion. </div>

Again, I am using one of my favorite paper lines. Kaiser Craft "Sweet Nothings". I've used a lot of Maya Road embellishments to coordinate with the theme and I absolutley love the chipboard pieces. I've also incorporated some machine stitching on my cards, which is another favorite of mine to do. I'm starting to get the hang of my little sewing machine...:) I find it very soothing...when of course everything is running smoothly...haha<br />
<br />

Anyways, the first card I created using again the Kaiser Craft paper line. I've also used some of my favorite dies from Papertrey Ink and the stamp sets as well. They are a must have for any scrapper! :) Again the chipboard pieces are from Maya Road which are painted, distressed and inked and some of them glittered. I was able to stain some of my own seam binding which was also a lot of fun to do. The little wooden ruler at the bottom is also from Maya Road.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I took some more of the chipboard pieces and covered them with paint and applied a small amount of glitter to the top of them. The little card is from one of Papertrey Inks stamp sets. I had the little buttons and added them to the tops of some of the already stamped ones. I then took the little wooden spools and applied some vintage paper around them. I love how this turned out.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This next card was used from the same paper line and I just cut out the bird cage and used that as an embellishment for my card. I then took various papers and just used a scalloped edge punch to create my design on the right side of the card. </div>

The paper at the bottom of the card were just taken off the bottoms of three of the different papers and I just used those to create a sweet little border at the bottom of the card. I used some lace around the cage, some twine, a mini clothes pin and I then just took one of the Maya Road pins and slipped a little wooden spool thru that and pushed it down into my bow. </div>

The last card was used taking various papers and punching out multiple squares to create the background for my card. And again, using the same paper trim from before I then just used those in between my squares. I took many chipboard pieces and painted then, distressed and inked them and the dress from I covered in paper and inked as well.</div>

I wrapped the spool in some lace trim and twine and with the sewing machine I added a small piece of patterned paper to embellish the base of it. I then added some buttons and then with the dress form, used a sweet little clothes pin and clipped the dress form to that and adhered that to the top of my bow. </div>

And lastly, I created a little keepsake to put the cards inside of. I had fun creating this envelope using some lace trim and sweet little embellishments. And from there tucked all the little cards inside.</div>

The papers used were from Webster's Pages and the bow on top of the box was made by using one of Papertrey Inks die cuts. I absolutley love it and you can just keep layering as much as your little heart desires. :) The trinkets on top of the box are made using some Prima baubles, some Tim Holtz baubles and the chain I found at a local craft store.</div>

Here is the box once you have taken the lid off and how the inside looks. I used a lot of Craftys Secrets stamps and some cut outs, some Kaiser Kraft dies and of course some vintage seam binding. The branches I used from one of the Tim Holtz dies and then just glittered a bit and the adorable little nest with the sweet little birds I had recieved from a friend of mine. And the little eggs inside the nest were again purchased at my local craft store. </div>

Even though she just turned 4 she is growing up so quickly. And along with all that comes change. Hard as it may be I knew this moment was coming. We have now converted from her "toddler bed" to her "Big Girl Bed" it is a sad but exciting new chapter in our/her life. And with that said, I have enjoyed tremendously creating all kinds of shabby chic little trinkets and what not for her room. I went to my local home decor store in search of some new bedding (of course) for her new bed and came accross this "Shabby Vintage" quilt that have couldn't have been any more perfect. I was so tickled when I found it and had to have it without a doubt. I then came accross these adorable little wire dress form hooks that were once black and have now made a complete transformation....:)<br />
<br />
I spray painted them with some off white paint and then from there had such joy in dressing them up for a sweet little addition to my daughters room. The first one I used some rose colored tulle and then blinged out the top part of it. I then added some vintage seam binding and a sweet little flower with a rhinestone in the center. I think they all came out pretty stinkin' cute...if I say so myself!<br />

The last one I created I used the same Prima Lace and some Maya Road heart trim. Again, with the same bling and everything.</div>

Lastly, I created this frame which was empty inside and attached chicken wire to the back of it to hang on her wall. It is still being created with some additional chipboard dress forms decorated with some shabby vintage papers and then to be embellished a bit and then hung with minature clothes pins. </div>

I also had purchased this tin envelope from my local Antique mart here in town and saved it for a later date. And now is the later date....it was originally painted a light mauve color so I then took it and painted it a shabby aqua color to coordinate with the colors in her quilt. I just loved the script embossing on it. I then sanded it a bit and took some Tim Holtz Distess Inks and created a very worn, vintage look to the embossed areas of the envelope. This was such a great find and so very inexpensive.</div>

This is still not quite finished yet. I need to embellish this a little bit with some seam binding and maybe some shabby flowers to give it a little lift. But overall, I just love this piece. The next thing I created was from some time back for the Scrapbooking store I design for and this was made by using a Maya Road chipboard frame album, some Graphic45 papers and some little embellishments from Prima and Tim Holtz. I also painted, stamped and distressed the smaller portion of the frame and then glittered the entire outside.</div>

Lastly, was a sweet little saying that I had purchased a while back and it has now found a new location in her room. I also added the banner underneath of it that I had made some time ago. I love how here little room is transforming and watching her grow into a sweet little young girl. It is sad that the sweet, little baby smell is going away but I will cherish every moment I can. Thanks again for stopping by and for your sweet comments. They truly make me happy! :) Have a good nite!</div>

Time gets by me so quickly and I don't even realize how much time has gone by so I'm going to share with you a few cards that I've created using some outdated Webster's Pages papers and using some die cuts and some little trinkets here and there. So the first card I used some kraft cardstock and just brushed the edges with some off white acrylic paint and then inked over the top of that to give it a little more of a distressed look. I then cut out a butterfly using a die cut and layered that with a piece of vellum.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Added some twine and a little tag with a sweet sentiment that can be used for so many different occasions and then just added some pearls and some sweet little buttons to finish it off. The next card I created I used some more Webster's Pages paper and again painted and dsitressed the edges of the cardstock first. I used a scalloped edge punch to create the decorative edge on the cards and then using a Martha Stewart punch made the crown for the cherub and covered it with glitter.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Added some pearls to the flowers on the paper and then dressed it up with a little seam binding, some sequin trim, flowers and another little tag to complete the card. The leaf was created by using a CuttleBug leaf die cut. The next card is done by using the same techniques as before on the cardstock. Covered the cardstock with some newsprint paper and then cutting two strips of different patterned paper from the Webster's Pages paper. I took a doily and tucked that underneath the two strips of paper and distressed that by using some ink.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then used a scalloped edge punch once again and placed that atop of the two strips of paper. I created the flower by using some burlap for the base of it and then added some silk flowers on top of that to finish it off. I then punched out a tag and stamped the word Mother on that and finished it off with a bow made out of twine and again some little pearls. The next card is again using some kraft cardstock, painted and inked. Then I added some different patterend papers on top of the cardstock and embellished it with several different heart punches and die cuts.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I again used some seam binding and the sequin trim (which I just love) and used some pop dots to give some of the hearts a dimensional look. And used a couple of Maya Road trinket heart pins in the flower and another little tag that says "hello". The last card is probably one of my favorites and it is made using the same distressing techniques and some different patterened papers. Along with a little scalloped edges here and there and using a dress form die cut.</div>

The dress form is cut out of newsprint paper and pop dotted to give it a dimensional look. I then took some sweet little Webster's Pages trim and just cut little pieces to go along the bottom half of the dress form. I then finished it off with some pearls for a necklace and then another little tag tucked into the flower with a Maya Road pearl pin. Thanks for stopping by. And I hope that all you Mothere's out there have a wonderful and special day!

I wrapped the stem of the rose in some coffe stained muslin strips and wrapped the top of the rose with some vintage lace and seam binding. Considering this was my first one I think it came out pretty good after many attempts. haha</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

And the stem of this one is just wrapped up in some old vintage book paper. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I apologize for the bad picture, I am not very good at taking food photos but I wanted to share this with you since it is a pretty yummy breakfast (if u can call it that). It's more like a dessert. :) It is called "Apple Pancake Puff". When you remove it from the oven it is very puffy and then quickly deflates afterwards. But you sprinkle it with some powdered sugar and some whip cream on top and you have something very tasty. You could also drizzle some warm caramel sauce over it and that would also be pretty good. Anyways, the picture doesn't do it much justice but I am happy to know that my family enjoys it and that it is just another little something I can make for them. This is so not a low cal breakfast by any means but it sure tastes good!!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibSaU-HPaF6EsW5RYLVWBii4lC5OZXwFdS5GjqXmmnBwyp1nNc0ou8AiwegTISjX2WrMJHDbMUKVvklBLe0Qexg1JJEpVkw2TzTAh2FTa1_RsRIuaNY7l-pAGCMhIWnb6VL2cX7RoDDnk/s1600/IMG_1106.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" lda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibSaU-HPaF6EsW5RYLVWBii4lC5OZXwFdS5GjqXmmnBwyp1nNc0ou8AiwegTISjX2WrMJHDbMUKVvklBLe0Qexg1JJEpVkw2TzTAh2FTa1_RsRIuaNY7l-pAGCMhIWnb6VL2cX7RoDDnk/s320/IMG_1106.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Have a wonderful Sunday!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Just stopping in real quick to post these since I meant to do this a little while back. Ugh!! Anyways, here are a few more Valentine's day cards that I created for the scrapbooking store using the KI Memories, Inc. paper line. I believe it is their Valentine's line but nevertheless I had fun with these papers as well. It's a little out of my comfort zone but I still put in my vintage flair on it. </div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJuhTgiXiSXFuV4k4N2VJ6cNGAp_fzPRnWr22pW0oNcyUWC9rzq614-NH8GZ9-atkKSwesjEPS0c9fuhKarzia2SJzfTYtqxCxSSHrqwQ8YwG6fUaOjk_8UvOeivOyQ8-w2xhoc18QbHc/s1600/IMG_0966.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" sda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJuhTgiXiSXFuV4k4N2VJ6cNGAp_fzPRnWr22pW0oNcyUWC9rzq614-NH8GZ9-atkKSwesjEPS0c9fuhKarzia2SJzfTYtqxCxSSHrqwQ8YwG6fUaOjk_8UvOeivOyQ8-w2xhoc18QbHc/s320/IMG_0966.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: center;">On this card I used some Prima lace at the bottom, the KI papers, and stitched around some lined notebook paper. The butterfly is from Tattered Angels, painted with some Ivory colored paint, and then I used a script stamp on top of that.

I used some bakers twine, a little star stick pin and some ribbon that I used to create the flower at the top of the card.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

Hope you liked them. Sorry they are late. :(</div><br />
Lastly, I am going to share with you a little something that I had made using some paper mache houses. I had made 3 of these happy little houses, one for each grandparent that I have in my family. Instead of using Christmas themed papers I used papers that I knew would coordinate with each of their homes. So from there this is how it came out.<br />

I then distressed it after it was dry. From there I started applying the papers and then of course throwing in some old vintage sheet music seems to go with just about anything.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I also used stamps from Paper Trey ink that were used for the front door and the windows as well as the little curtains you see outside the windows! :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

When that was finished I then took some more glue and applied it all over the buttons and then took some Doodle Bug glitter and sprinkled that atop of the whole thing. I then tied some vintage seem binding around the top with an old vintage key inside the bow. I only have pictures of one house for some reason. But this is how one turned out and I have to say that the grandma's were happy to have recieved a little something they could tuk some treasures inside of. :)</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
