Happy Valentine's Day!!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!! Yesterday my boys and I made my Dear Hubby some sweet heart cookies! He's a super hard man to buy gifts for!!! So I decided some baked goods were a great gift!! Cheap too:) We made two type of cookies, with a total of 60+ cookies!!!

be mine

Yesterday after going to the dentist!!!! I was so tired, and since I'm not a napper I decide to play with some goodies I picked up in the city on the weekend as a Birthday gift to myself:) I bought Websterspages Hollywood Vogue and Wonderfall Paper kits:) Although I am a little annoyed that somebody swapped the sticker sheet in the Wonderfall collection with Waiting for Santa!!!!!! Might have to buy a digi copy and print out my own! Also bought a package of the Netting, tired to incorporate some on my "be mine" heart but it just wasn't working....

So for my heart I drew a heart on cardboard and cut it out, teared it up a bit and added some Hollywood Vouge Paper and Alpha stickers. Used some Prima flowers and bling:) Added some feathers and a little bit of crackle paint to distress it and added a few beads to the string to hang it from. Also cut and ruffled up some brown paper bag and glued it to the back:)

Pretty happy with this quick project, and it took my mind off my frozen mouth and the fact that I couldn't drink coffee!!!

Happy New Year's Day!

We had fun with the kids over at a friends sledding and roasting Marshmallows:) Can't wait to be able to scrapbook again, love these photos!!

Happy New Year

Made this cute Winter arrangement for my mom, forgot to take a picture at home so took one at her house. Picture is not clear? I think I need to clean the lens or something??? Also the color difference in the spruce branches was not nearly this bad in real life! Will be making a few more of these, so quick and easy! Cheap too with the sales at Micheals:)

Yudu Baby's First Christmas

Made this Beautiful Baby's First Christmas shirt for a friends baby boy:) The Silver looks stunning, very nice for Christmas! Took 7 attempts to get my emulsion to work (think I know what I'm doing now) Hopefully they like this shirt! Now to make some company logo shirts for my mom:)

Photoshop and Pink Paisley

On the Pink Paisley blog they have some really sweet vintage style downloadable free Christmas Postcards!! My only problem was not knowing anything about Photoshop!!!! So I asked a good friend for some help!! After getting a short lesson I was able to make my Christmas Postcard, yeah! This year I didn't bother fighting with my dear hubby for a nice family photo to send out to family and friends, I decided to get a digital copy of the kids with Santa and send that instead!

Yesterday I made a nice centerpiece for my mom's Christmas party with some beautiful red and white roses and greenery, including pine, spruce and juniper but I was running late to get over and help make appetizers that I completely forgot to get a pict. until I was back home and ready for bed!

Yudu

Yesterday I dragged the kids into the city to Buy my Yudu (A present from my dad for Christmas)

They were on sale:) $160 off and a free mesh screen and also there was a coupon for 15% off so I managed to get all the inks and other items needed to start creating!!! yeah! So today after doing more research I decided to give it a go! Went pretty well, learned a few thing and now I have a few more things to research!! I really think this will be a great toy!!! Just need some more practice! I used the Cricut to cut out the snowman on vinyl, layed it on the mesh screen, tapped around the image (so ink only is transfered through image) found a few old shirts to play with, applied ink and set it after letting it dry to touch... Sounds simple enough, but took a while longer than I anticipated!!! I made 5 shirts and this was the best image, ink is still wet in picture giving it a spotting look! Kids think this is GREAT!! I think making my own screen's will turn out better, but they are a lot more time consuming, so they'll have to wait a few more days!! I'm going to make a few company shirts for my Mom and her Hubby as they recently bought a business, hope they like:)
