February Creations

My wonderful SWAP group had taken off December, and maybe November (I can't even remember!!) but we regrouped and started back up in January. I am running late, however, but did get my design all worked out. I have a few more to make but here is the final product:



My sister-in-law just moved into a new house, so that was my inspiration. I love to multi-task! The new clear stamps from SU! are wonderful. I love that they take up so much less space, of course. But, they stamp very nicely, too. Just like the wood, really. This set, Good Neighbors, is from the Sell-A-Bration set and so is the paper, Welcome Neighbors DS. It's so cute. Not sure what I will use all that paper for but it is adorable. You can never have too much paper, right??

And, I was asked to make a friend's birthday card, because we were going out for margaritas last night (in a small snow storm, I might add). My sister suggested the "Cheers to You" stamp set which was perfect for this occasion. Here is what I came up with:

Craft Show 2009

I was talked into doing a craft show, by a good friend, and I am so glad that I was! It was a couple weeks ago and Parkway Central High School. I shared a both with three other fabulously creative new friends. I wasn't too sure how I'd do but as it turns out I'd chalk it up to a success. I didn't have a ton of product but here is a glimpse of some of what I took with me. I didn't bring all that much home which was kinda nice!







Thanks for checking me out :)

Teacher Gifts

Well, having sick kids for about a month has given me some much needed craft time. I was asked by Kammy's teachers to whip up some notecards and such for a student teacher who has been in their classroom all semester. She leaves this week so here is what I delivered this morning. I think they turned out cute and had a little bit of a hard time letting go :)











And here is what all the teachers are getting for Christmas. My fabulously talented friend, Roxanne, made the cute "snow" shovels. We added hot chocolate, a yummy chocolate bar, and some marshmellows for snow :)



Thanks for looking! Happy Crafting!

Boxes, Boxes and More Boxes

I had a moment of insanity or spurt of creativity and bought a ton of cigar boxes. I got some on ebay and some on craigslist. I had no plan whatsoever for them. I had never done anything with them prior. I just felt like I needed to have them and thought I was getting them for a steal -- which I have confirmed :) They are so cool! Lots of different sizes, shapes; some cardboard, some wooden. And I have been making jewelry boxes! The insides are covered in felt, some have dividers to keep your jewels nice and tangle free, and they include a mirror on the top cover to check out how beautiful you are :)

What do you think??? I am going to charge $15-$25 per box. Anyone want to order one??
