The Backyardigans


You know your child is obsessed with this show when you have 45 episodes recorded on your DVR.

I think I have every episode and all the songs memorized!

Happy Easter

My favorite Easter card I made this season!  Using the cracked glass technique.  It is hard to see here, but the egg is "cracked" :)

Stampin' Techniques... V1 & V2

Just a quick snippet of the Stampin' Techniques class, volume 1 and 2, and some techniques I enjoyed learning!

Define Your Life, flip out mini book

I haven't added my photos yet, but wanted to share this with all you in BlogLand.  I used one sheet of 12x12 card stock for the base, I scored it at 6 in each way, creating four, 6 in squares, and then cut one side at 6 in to the middle (so there will be 3 score lines, and one cut), then fold it all in to make a mini book that flips out all ways!  Decorate to your hearts desire! :)

My middle schoolers made this last week at our after school club.  Quick, simple, and cute!

Spring Fling mini book photos

And the best part... the flowers on the front SPIN!!!  This was a very cute project.  Class/Design from Richard Garay.

Some of the photos came out so-so... I was having some problems with lighting this morning!

Catching up on projects

Well I've been busy busy here!  I haven't had time to post some projects that I've worked on recently, some my own, some other people's.  Here they are!
This project was for the middle school girls' Scrappin & Stampin' after school club
Now I'm not sure of many of the products in here.  We needed some materials quick!  It's from Michael's and JoAnns, the cardstock is Paper Company and stamps are Studio G... that's about all I can tell you... the rest is unknown brands!


This was also for the after school club... again, a mishmash of products.  Patterned paper is Martha Stewarts crafts, CS is Paper Company, brads are JoAnns, and the stamps and ink is Stampin' Up!

And here's my little easter basket creation.  I used Chipboard and my Cricut (Doodlecharms cart.), Rebecca Ericson paper, and Stampin' Up! stamps and ink.
