Dry Erase Teacher Board

Hello! Long Time no craft. I have been crafting but my computer is not nice lately and I haven't been able to post. So, now it's being nice and I can share.

My daughter's second grade teacher was so awesome, and even though my daughter isn't in second grade we have stayed in contact with her teacher. I saw something like this on pinterest. Here is the link to what I saw.

I created this...

I had an old gold picture frame and I spray painted it blue. Then I got this adorable paper and the lined part is the back of the school rocks paper. I then cut the letters off of plantin schoolbook on the cricut. I attached the ribbon to the glass before I slid it into the frame. Then the teacher can write on the glass and then wipe it off. It was a big hit!

I hope you like it and I'll share more this week.

Pinque Sparkly Journal

Hi Everyone!!
It's is such a beautiful day and I hope you are going to head out and enjoy it. It is my day to post at Pinque Peacock.

I have an altered journal to share with you today. I found this in the $.50 section at Michael and knew it was just dreaming about being made over :)

The patterned paper was from a disney scrapbooking pack. I started on the flap and then wrapped it around. It didn't quite make it so I added a strip of solid to make it around the book. I inked all the edges after I trimmed it. I added the white sheet of paper but then it looked too blah, so I had the idea that I would stamp on it in liquid pearls. I love the effect that it added.
Then the pink paper is where I will add a name to the journal. I am not sure who i am going to give this to yet.
I attached the flowers and this gorgeous Pinque Peacock Pin. This pin was part of the July Release for the check out the rest of the gorgeous pins here.
Since I have a love of bling, I added all the bling around the flap just to make it sparkle.

Here is a close up of the pin and stamping :)
Isn't the pin the perfect touch for the journal. Princess Buttercup is already trying to make this hers.

I hope you liked my journal and have a great day.

recipe book

Happy Monday!! I just realized I have never shared one of my favorite projects.

Last summer I participated in Paper Craft Island and after I was voted off they had redemption island. One project was to make anything to show our skill. I made this recipe book.

I cut my chipboard to 4x6 then I covered it and decorated. All the papers were from the kitchen themed paper from DCWV I can't remember the name. I borrowed the stack from my mom for this. I decided to use rings instead of binding it, so it was easier to add recipe cards.

I know I spelt dessserts wrong. I was having a brain fart that day. I did fix it I just forgot to retake the picture. LOL. I hope you forgive my craziness.

Enjoy your week.

Post it holders

Happy Monday :)
I have a cute little post it note holder project for you today. I made 2 of these for some of our town royalty that my daughter is super close with.

I have close ups that I will add later. My computer is being super slow today. So I cut chipboard at 3.5x3.5 and same for my paper. I punched the holes using a bind it all and then used the wires. The paper was from a pack at Michaels. I added some ribbon and bling. I used Pink Passion, I believe it was called, for the stitching around the edges.

The letters are stickers left over from a scrapbook pack. Easy Peasy. I hope the girls like them :)

I am entering this into My Craft Spot Sew fun.
I am also entering this in Paper Playtime, Use patterned paper

Here are the close ups.

Don't Flip Out

Happy Friday Everyone!
I am starting to feel like myself and starting to craft up a storm. Today I have a simple little project for you.

I made some new magnets for my fridge. We have a lot going on this summer and I need to keep track of all these papers.

I used 2 sizes of clothes pins and glued my paper on. Then I trimmed them and inked the edges slightly with close to cocoa ink and a q-tip. The flip flops were left over embellishments from a kit and then I added some bling and then flowers and twine to the other clips. The sentiment is from K Andrew Designs and I punched out the shape. Easy Peasy but super cute on my fridge.

I am entering this in Shop Pumpkin Spice Summer themed challenge. Check out the store here.

Enjoy your weekend. :)

Buckets of Fun

Happy Friday!
I am here with an entry into another challenge. I am finally getting back into things :)
This time at the Pumpkin Spice Blog the challenge is farm. I am also entering this into the 3Girl Jam Challenge anything goes with ribbon.
So when I was trying to figure out what to do, I was looking through all my craft stuff. I noticed I have so much that I don't use enough. SO along with entering more challenges I am also trying to use stuff I haven't used recently. We will see how that goes :)
Anyway....
Here is my project.

So I got this bucket a while ago in the dollar section at Target. Then I used my ribbon stash for the handle. The apple was cut from Doodlecharms at 2 3/4. I hand cut the leave off and then just colored the stem brown with a stampin up marker. I inked the apple with Ruby Red ink and used the same ink to stamp my sentiment. It is hard to see but the eyelet in the tag is also apple shaped. The sentiment comes from a K Andrew Designs set. I gave it to my daughter's friend. She slept over last night and got to take this home this afternoon. :)

Make sure to check out the Pumpkin Spice store here.

So, now onto my project :)

This is a mini photo album. When you open it up, there are plastic sleeves to slide pictures in. I got it at Michaels and it was green and just blah to start with.

I covered it with this new paper from my stash and then inked it with elegant eggplant ink from Stampin Up, then I added the green binder and inked that with certainly celery. I wrapped it with purple bakers twine. I used my crop a dile to punch holes to put my twine through to tie it closed. The layers were cut with a stampin up framelets. Then I just inked them as well. I am thinking I might add a name in the center and give it to a friend of Princess Buttercup's. I have until Tuesday to decide about that :)
