Arbor Day

Arbor Day celebrations!!!  Ok ok the celebration of nature too!!!  That is the way my project went this go around over at My Sheri Crafts.  This project was inspired by my great nephew Kaden who got a bug catcher kit for Easter.  Little did I know that on Easter we would be not only egg hunting but bug hunting!!  LOL!  Of course we had a grand time searching and trying to scoop stuff up and then trying to keep everything in the cage!

SPRING is in the AIR

SPRING has sprung over at MY SHERI CRAFTS this week!  Come on over and celebrate the introduction to Spring with your beautiful creations!!  This week I picked yet again a quite simple card that the papers seem to speak for themselves!!! Papers are two sided which makes for great contrasting papers, of which I know the recipient of this card is going to LOVE!! :)

Its Fishing Time

Love Is In The Air

Hey gals and Happy Almost There Valentines!!! :)  Over at My Sheri Crafts this two weeks we are celebrating love in the air!  I wanted to go outside the norm and do a project along with a card so hope that you enjoy it!!! 

Start with any size of smooth styrofoam wreath.  I covered it with a solid colored piece of fabric before adding the tulle.  Cutting pieces of tulle relatively the same sizes or a bit smaller all depending on you preference! One layer of each color all the way around with as many colors added in as wanted! I then added the flowers that I got from HL in both the floral and scrapbooking sections.  After that I added in some stemmed feathers also from HL along with some Christmas tree decorations that I bought 80% off at Walmart after the holidays!  All in all it came out to be quite snazzy and my youngest daughter loved it so much she decided it was HERS! :)  The card I decided to make just because I was feeling in the red white and black valentines mood.....The jar of hearts is from Michaels with the flowers and ribbon from HL!  Come on over and show us the love you have for your family and friends!!!

Over at My Sheri Crafts ITS A WRAP in more ways than one!!! :)  We are "wrapping" up the end of the year with some fun and making a craft that involves wrapping or dolling up a bag or tag for a Christmas gift! :)  I really enjoyed this challenge!!!!!!  I went traditional colors this go around in honor of my best friend and fellow DT member Sandy who came up with this challange idea! :)  She so loves Christmas and while can think out of the color "box" down deep she just plain loves the traditional ones the best!  LOVE YOU SANDY!!!
