Baby Shower Decorations

I am hosting a Baby Shower for my daughter in May and have begun creating the decorations. These are adorable Popcorn Boxes from Tags Bags Boxes and cartridge. The pinwheels are from CCR 3D pinwheels. Most of the animals are from Create a Critter cartridge (if not all). TFL!

Mickey Mouse Party

I was asked to create a Mickey Mouse themed party for a 1st birthday. This was soooo much fun to create!  

Wedding Reception Canvas

I was asked to make a canvas layout for a wedding reception. This is what the bride wanted instead of a guest book. I used a 12 x 12 canvas to make the layout for their engagement photo (that I also got to take for them!)
and then mounted that on a larger canvas. This was very fun to make :)

Candle Holders

I bought some glass candle holders on clearance at Target. Added some paper and ribbon to dress them up. These are more prizes for the baby shower I am hosting. Now  I just need to buy the candles :)

Frame with clothes line

I saw this unfinished frame with a clothes line built into the inside and LOVED it. Gave it a paint job, added some embellishments to hang from the clothes pins and tied on some twine. This is yet another prize for the baby shower I am throwing and the lucky winner can put their own photos in it :)

Note Card Holder

This was an unfinished wood product that I purchased. It is a cute little note card holder. Added some paint, adorable ribbon and a flower that I stamped the smiley face onto to match the ribbon. This will be another prize for the baby shower that I am hosting :)

Mini Photo Easel

Here is another project that I created as a prize for baby shower games. Picked up this unfinished wood frame set and spruced it up a bit :)  Will hold a 3 x 3 picture.

Extra Large Clothes Pins

These are really BIG clothes pins that I had bought at my local Ben Franklin Craft store. They were just unfinished wood. I painted them and added the flowers. I am hosting a baby shower and have decided that I am going to make all of the gift/prizes for the shower games. I have been having so much fun :)

Made my own Candy Stands for a Candy Bar

I have been busy, busy, busy planning a baby shower for my daughter. We will be having the shower in May so I have been busy designing the decor (pictures of paper craft items to follow). I have decided to have a candy bar at the shower. My first step in this process was to go to Goodwill and buy salad plates and margarita style glasses. I scoured the isles and found all of my pieces at  $0.49 each! Next, I bought spray paints to match my color scheme, some spray primer and a strong adhesive for glass. I glued the pieces together first, once dry I sprayed the primer and then once that was dry, I sprayed my desired color. DO BE SURE TO USE PRIMER as the spray will start to bubble or crack on the 2nd coats when applied directly to the glass. I just LOVE how these turned out. I have a few more to make but had run out of primer. I will make the remainder tomorrow. 

Valentine's Treats

I made these cute "Milk Carton" treat boxes for my grand kids for Valentine's Day. This box is from the Imagine cartridge All Wrapped Up, I just used my own papers instead of the Imagine pattern. I filled them up with little candy goodies :) 

Monkey Theme Baby Shower

My niece is having a baby shower next weekend and requested that I make her decorations. She LOVES Monkeys so I had to incorporate them into the theme. The monkeys on white sticks are to place into food trays, the small monkey heads will be cupcake toppers. Aren't those Lollipop Holders just adorable? These are from the fabulous Emma over at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/  I put lollipops in mine but I already have in mind to put cake pops in them as well :) 

My Pink Stamper 12 Days of Christmas Challenge

Robyn at http://www.mypinkstamper.com/ is hosting her 12 Days of Christmas Challenges. Today's challenge is to Make a Christmas or Winter project from a Cricut Cartridge that is NOT for the Holidays! I had made a frame like this over the summer for a craft show that I had. I loved this frame and since my daughter will be having a baby next June I thought that this would be great to create again and save for next Christmas! The cuts are from the Disney Winnie the Pooh cartridge and are too cute! Thanks for looking!

Last of the Christmas Tags

Here is the last of the tags - hehe! 

 

Christmas Tags #2

Here are a few more of my tags - I spent all evening last night doing these :)

Christmas Tags

Ooooh, I have been having so much fun making Christmas Tags. These will be attached to little goodies that I make for friends and teachers. I had just recently purchased some dies/stamps from Emma over at http://www.creativetimeforme.com/ I just love the XL tag die and have used it alot!

"JOY" Christmas Candles

Here are some candles that I made as a gift for a friend of mine. I used Plantin Schoolbook cartridge at 1.5" for the lettering. A very quick and easy gift that really can be for any occasion! Thanks for looking...

Christmas Cards Done!

Yay! I finished my Christmas Cards ~ now just need my family photo to finish it off.

Christmas Tags

I made these for the lady that I work for. She always bakes for the Holidays and likes to attach tags to her goods. The tags were cut from the Cricut Christmas Tags cartridge at 2.5" and then pattern filled with my Imagine and then embellished with dimensionals.

Christmas Decoration

I made this Christmas Decoration this afternoon. I bought the frame set from Ben Franklin Crafts, it measures about 27" x 6" for the top frame and the lower frames are 3" x 3". It is in the unfinished wood section, I just painted the main frame and then used my Jolly Holidays cartridge and my Imagine for the letters and images. I just lo

ve how it turned out!
