July 15, 2011 The Craftroom

Here are a couple pix of the craftroom.
We are still working on organizing it.
Last weekend we (and I do mean we, the whole family) went to our first CKC Scrapbooking Convention in The Woodlands. My (wonderful) hubby got me this craft desk.:0) pretty, huh? My son seems to think it is his too. lol:0)

One of the pix has my wall mount that we found at the Conatiner Store. You can find different size metal shelves at a resonable price. PLUS, you can design your area any way you would like.:0)

I had to add my framed fabric picture in there. We had picked out two designs of fabric while we were stationed in Japan for the baby bedding. This was the second choice. I love both of them. The first fabric choice, our awesome MIL made our son a really nice bedding set. It is now in our daughter's room.

May 23, 2012 It's Summer (Summer Wreath .... minus the apostrophe.....)lol

Good afternoon everyone. I am not sure why...but this project took me a really long time. I need to put my little apostrophe in my wreath too.....ooops! Ok....here is what I used to create the wreath..... I purchased a large foam ring at Michael's, as well as some pretty light blue yarn. I covered the ring of foam in yarn, that took a long time. I started in the inside of the wreath so you wouldn't see the glue as much. I used a hot glue gun. I used the "Life's a Beach" cartridge for everything BUT the wording ... The letters are from Base Camp. I didn't see an apostrophe...but there was quotation marks. I need to still add that. That is my go to cartridge for letters. Hope you like my project. Have a great day!:0)

November 5, 2011 Rosette Turkey

Good afternoon everyone!!! I made a rosette this morning. I was wanting to make some sort of Thanksgivng decoration for my son's teacher and this is what I came up with. I found the directions for the rosette here: http://mrsbscraftroom.blogspot.com/ Go check out here blog if you haven't been there before. She made a beautiful pumpkin rosette.:0) AND she made a video to show you how to make it.;0) I followed the instructions she had and made the brown rosette. I added an extra rosette on the top, I believe it was 2 1/2 x 12 (2 pieces). What I added: 3 strips of 4 x 12 scored at 1/2 inch intervals. I made a 1/2 rosette. At the bottom (to hold it together) is about a 2x12 strip of the same cardstock glued to the rosette. The cartridge I used was Create a Critter. The cardstock I used was: rosette and turkey (Recollections) and the rest was (old) SU. Let me know if you have any questions. Have a great weekend!!!:0)
