Tutorial over at Getting Cricky

Happy New Year.

This is my project I made for today.  It is a frame I painted and then decorated.



I have a tutorial for the flower at Getting Cricky. Go check it out. Have a safe New Years Eve!!

My final Christmas cards

Sorry for the posts so close together. I kept forgetting to post these for the contest.   I don't think my brain works lately...lol

So this is my final card. I used some scrap polka dot paper and then wrapped white ribbon around the middle and made my bow with it.  I got this sentiment out of a bin of stuff, I have no idea where it is from. I was just using old stuff up on these.

It was easy but with the way things were going this is all I managed to get done. I hope you all have a great day, and a great rest of your week.

Christmas Card #2

This is the second card that I got done. I found a pre embossed piece of cardstock. It says Merry Christmas over and over. I got it in a bunch of stuff from another crafter. I tried to find the folder but have no idea where it is from :(  The sentiment was ripped off some old cards and then I did 3 rows of lace at the bottom.

I added some stitching and eyelets and it was done.

I am entering this in the 3 girl jam challenge. Christmas and Ribbon :) I only have one more card to share, and I promise to do loads better next year with sharing projects and stuff.

Christmas cards

I am totally behind lately. I did manage to make a few Christmas cards, and then used store ones for the rest. I know I am sooo bad. :(  I didn't even get them mailed yet, but I figure at least they will get them before new years.  I found some cards I started a few years ago and they were horrible. I am ripping them apart and trying to use what I can for new cards.

The paper is from Authentique and then I used some stickers that I picked up at goodwill, added some ribbon and then grabbed this sentiment off of one of the yucky cards. 
 I like to keep the cards simple because they just get thrown away and I hate to see everything wasted like that.  I already have a few more in the works that I will be sharing with you. I apologize for the pictures. I forgot out the challenge ending and my camera batteries are dead, and I lent the charger to my mom, so I had touse my phone :(

Have a great rest of the day.

Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

I know I have been really bad with posting, my crafty mojo has taken a bad break, but I have made a resolution to be better after the first of the year.  I started simple since I haven't done anything lately. I have 2 non Christmas cards to share with you today.  I didn't get too many Christmas cards made and I am super late on sending my cards out.

This first one used up my scraps, some craft tape, and the set Winged Things by K Andrew Designs.
This second one used scraps, craft tape, some flowers, and Southern Sayings.

 

I hope you enjoyed the cards. And I want to say I truly appreciate all of you guys as my followers. Thanks for sticking around. Merry Christmas.
