Soul Week

Here is my LO and card for soul week! I had a hard time coming up with something for it.

More lots and lots

I have been working on way too much crafting this past month, as you can tell. Here are some pics of duct tape purses...

Here are a couple more girls I made. This week we had to use backgrounds and pleats, crinkles, hats, and sweaters. 

 and lastly, for now, here is a scrapbook page I made for a challenge I had on Children's music using a wiggles song, "bathtime". 

Lots and lots

It's been awhile since I posted, but I've been super busy crafting. Here are my first attempts at mixed media girl art:

I have also been card crafting:

I have been having tons of fun making duct tape purses...pics to come..

Clipboard/Message Center

This was by far the messiest project I've ever done. There was paper everywhere! And glue. And flowers. And brads. And stamps. And ink. And I could go on FOREVER! This was also a lot of fun. I would so do it again. Who needs one?

Paper Bag Mini Album

I was challenged yesterday to make a resolution that I would keep the whole year. I was also challenged to make a paper bag mini album last month, which I never did. So.... I decided to do both in one. My resolution is to spend more time appreciating my awesome kids. So, I this album will be used to document those experiences. What you can't see in the album is the pages are glued onto paper lunch bags, to make an envelope in which I added a slide-out tag to journal on. Also, on every other page, I made an envelope to put any keepsakes from the occasion. This was one of the more fun projects I've done. I can't wait to add the rest!!

Faux Silk

Who knew "faux" could be so much fun! Gotta love Stamp Group!!! For this, I randomly stamped the background. To get the silk affect, glue was spread all over the stamped paper, then a crinkled sheet of tissue paper was attached. I made the flowers by wetting and crumpling up paper. All products are Stampin' Up, of course, except the tissue paper, which is just plain old tissue paper, and the candy. :) Add ribbons, tag, and punch out a cute heart design on top. Voila! Easy, cheap Valentine!

Velentine card

Love this Valentine card we made in stamp group this month. For this we used the Big Shot with letterpress dies and didn't it turn out awesome? I bought the Big Shot just so I could buy this letterpress die!! We also, of course, used many other Stampin' Up products.
