Some Projects Done This Week

I have been able to work on a few projects this week. They are all small projects but fun all the same.

This is one of two tiles that I made my Mom for Grandparents Day. I had an svg file (again - I don't know who made and I'm so sorry! I'll do better in the future!) I cut it on oracle vinyl and added a little bit of Flower Soft to give it some dimension.






Here is the second tile... I used the centre from the first cut and added Flower Soft as well. These were simple and fun to make.









I was able to pick up an absolutely adorable paper pack! This one is shiny, has a ton of glitter and such a cute theme! Watch for some projects with this one very soon!



I put together a scrapbook page for my grandmother and her sisters. DD helped me pick out the color scheme and I used a sketch from Crafts by Rowena. (Great work again, Rowena!) I love the way this one turned out!
My last project was for DH. He has wanted something "cool" for the truck windows and we just couldn't find the "perfect" thing. He finally settled on one of his teams and here is what he got. If you look really close you can see that there is a second on on the opposite side of the truck - but please ignore the reflection in the window. ha! You can get the scut file for this logo here.

I hope to have more time for crafting this week - and I'd like to post pics of the cards the V and I made at our SU club on Saturday night. More to come!

Sweet Girl Layout

I was able to finish a layout using pictures of one of our previous foster children. I started with a layout sketch from the Crafts by Rowena Blog. I just loved her sketch! Thanks, Rowena!

I used George and Basic Shapes to cut out the pictures and the photo mats, Accent Essentials "end cap" feature to create the pocket and Graphically Speaking for the Sweet Girl cut. You can get the .cut file that I created for this layout here.

I also cut a few butterflies using Sure Cuts A Lot, and painted Elmer's Glitter Glue on them. My own personal el-cheapo way to get the bling in there. :)

I also used my mat pack to punch holes on the pocket and write small lines between holes for that "faux sewing" look. Paper is from SU and my LSS.

Finally, I added some "Summer" Flowersoft to some flower embellishments that I had and randomly stuck them on too. Pink was Miss J's favorite color - and I think she really would have like how this turned out. I know I did!

Had to share this too! I got THIS in the mail yesterday! YAHOOOO!!

I can hardly wait to play with all the images on this cart - as well as all the new cards! Fun, fun, fun!
