What I made to store my ribbon




How I was storing my ribbon was not working.. So, I can up with this box idea..
Supplies:
*photo box
*dowel rod
*X-acto knife
I cut two hole on both end to run my dowel rods though (cut dowel to fit).. Next, cut a slit on both sides for ribbon to come out of.. Finally, I placed my ribbon on the dowel rods..

I Love You (Practical Scrappers DT Project & Magpie Sketch)





Hello everyone, well a new week is beginning and there is a new challenge going on over at Practical Scrappers... Your challenge this week is to use up your flowers you can make your own, use some primas, put a creative twist on a different supply to make flowers - whatever you'd like!

Their going to pick three winners - the most creative use of flowers, the project that uses the most flowers (leave us a comment so we know), and again our favorite project! We will also be picking one winner randomly generated to get some bling from Glitz Design. So come join the fun!!!

Well, here is my design team project.. The sketch I used is from Magpie Club.. I made flowers from crepe paper streamers and put a little touch of bling in the centers.. I used Design Studio to create the heart background, and so was the big red heart.. Let me know what you think.. :0)

Look what I did for my little nephew today!!





I painted new little nephews nursery today.. It was so much fun..

Here Comes Baby.. (Practical Scrappers DT Friday Sketch)





This weekends sketch at Practical Scrappers is a card.. I used the sketch make a card for my sister in-laws baby shower card.. The circle with the pregnant lady is from the "New Arrival" cart, and the sentiment is from a baby stamp set.. So come join the sketching fun over at Practical Scrappers, and let me know what you think.. :0)

Pumpkin Farm Fun (SOUS and Practical Scrappers brad challenge)





Here is another layout using the new sketch over at SOUS, and you had to have red or pink in your page.. Well, I did put those color on the page because those colors were in my picture (my daughters blanket was pink and MIL jacket was red)... I also used some brads so I can add this page to Practical Scrappers brad challenge... The pumpkins are cut from Everyday Paper Dolls and the corn is from Paper Doll Dress Up.. The tittle was cut from Opposites Attract.. If you would like to join in on the brad challenge or the sketch check out the sites in the sidebar of my blog.. let me know what you think.. :0)

Well, here is another passion of mine, cake decorating... I've only sold a few, but I've made a lot for family and friends.. I've been decorating cakes for 3 years now.. I got started because I wanted to make my son's first birthday cake, and fell in love with making art out of something edible.. I just got done with this slumber party cake.. So, let me know what you think.. :0)
