Summer Flowers

I love summer flowers....the ones that grow wild in huge fields. Just makes my heart happy. So, I altered some small vases to put these little beauties in. Everything is Creative Cafe, except for the polka dot ribbon. I tried to take a close up pic, so you could see the stamps on the side. Happy Wednesday!

Creative Cafe Cupcake Apron

Pinwheels

Feeling kind of bad about not posting this entire weekend. Could have taken some pics of finished layouts, but feelin' kind of lazy. I was waiting to post these until I got a better picture...but again the laziness...so I'm posting them anyway. Kind of hard to see them against the cheesy siding of my house. All Creative Cafe stuff. Sewed some felt and buttons around the basket....yummmmmmm...felt and buttons. I managed to do nothing productive all weekend. Now it is late and I'm thinking I should at least run to the grocery store and get those darn cheese sticks I promised the kiddos. Almost out of diet coke and twinkies anyway. What will I have for lunch??? Hope you had an awesome weekend!!

Scrappy Post as Promised

I know not everyone is not into owls as much as me, but I do love them. I altered this frame I got for a dollar at Goodwill with a little felt owl love. Haven't decided where to hang it yet.

The other is a pair of flip flops I used Creative Cafe/Hampton stamps on and Creative Cafe flowers and buttons. TFL! Hope everyone had an awesome weekend!

More New Creative Cafe...

Love the new butterfly dies! So fun!

Happy Birthday and other stuff....

I had an interesting week. Last weekend it was in the high 60s and low 70s here, which is really odd for January. On Monday night we had an outbreak of tornadoes. The district I teach in lost the roof off the 5th and 6th grade building. We didn't have school Tuesday or Wednesday. I had to go in Tuesday and check for damage in my room even though our building wasn't hit. The end of the building I'm in flooded, but my room only had one wet wall. I guess that is one benefit of having the small room with no window. The big classrooms with windows had water standing in them. I'm really thankful we weren't in school when it hit. Some of the kiddos I work with had damage at their houses. Thursday one of my kids lost his house in a fire. Makes me think twice about complaining about my life.

Today is my mom's birthday!! I won't tell you how old she is except she is old enough to have a 31 year old...oh, and she had me when she was 23. :) I worked all day on finishing up projects and I even managed to take pictures of a few. I'm such a slacker when it comes to that.

A Little Love Elsie For My House

Creative Cafe Projects

I heart the new Creative Cafe Spirit line. So much fun. The puffy felt flowers are my favorite...or maybe the thick sheets of felt...or the colorful rub ons. Can't go wrong with this stuff!

Serious Addiction

To the icicles. Used half my hoarded jar making this (which I lifted from Shannon Tidwell). Then my friend called and said they had icicles at Big Lots for a dollar a pack. Yeah...um....run don't walk! Let's just say my jar is full again.

Good Sunday Morning!!

Scenic Route is the August sponsor at CMK!! How awesome is that! Here is one of my projects for this month! We are off to Silver Dollar City with company in from Michigan. Can't wait to get there! Hope you have a wonderful Sunday!

Using My Stash....

to make my sweet girl a t-shirt. She's been having some growing pains and a little tired of outgrowing all her clothes. I wanted to do something to cheer her up. I knew one day I'd use those Heidi Swapp iron ons!

Flowers....

My girlfriend was bugging me about not having a scrappy post. I guess she's tired of all the pictures. Here it is yes. No, I don't get tired of making things with flowers on them. I wish I did. Almost everything is from the Art Warehouse Fresh line. Thanks for taking a peek! Happy Saturday!

More Page Frames!

These are awesome to work with!

More totes and Page Frames

these little Page Frames make perfect tags! Yes, I do need more totes. I added the star and the rick rack to the yellow bag. The other came as is except for the tag I made.

Page Frames

Page Frames is the June design team sponsor at CMK. They are also having a Page Frame contest and you can win one of those super cute clear albums. This little thing was so hard to take pictures of. Hope you can get the idea. It's hanging in a tree. :)

Altered Magnetic Board

Good Friday morning!! Here's a little magnetic chalk board I altered with some Art Warehouse and Creative Imaginations things! Hope you have a super day today!

Art Warehouse Sweets

Since I have to work tomorrow I am posting now. This is on the Art Warehouse blog right now. After that last post I needed something sweet! Happy Thursday everyone!!

By Bag...

Yes, I love tote bags and purses. I finished this one yesterday. I sewed the heart and flower on, the ribbon around the handles, and altered the hang tags (they are Creative Imaginations). Now I'm off for a fun filled family day! Happy Memorial Day!

Halloween mini album!

I am finishing projects today. I am the Queen of Unfinished projects. I like to start things and then find something better to work on. I have finished 4 things today. Yay!!

Bottle Cap pencil cup and card

Here is what I finished today. Finally using up these bottle caps I used to think were SO COOL! Feels good to put them to use!
