The birthday party!

So I was hired by one of JA's classmates Mom's to do her birthday party. I wanted to show you the projects that we made (2 in total). The girls were aged 8 and9. They had a fabulous time,and loved their projects!! :)

I'll just do one for today tho :)

We made these cute and fabulous purses! I found the idea here, and she has instructions, but I will do a little tutorial tomorrow with extra measurements. :) Thiswas So fun to do!!!

Just a share :)

The Cupboard Card

I have lots of blogs that I visit, and one is Heather Summers Blog. She made this really cute Hallowe'en card, which you can see here. Heather did a fabulous video tutorial. Once I did the card the way she showed, I was able to do it in different sizes and shapes. I also used my new Circle Scissors Plus, and WOW is all I say to that!:) I don't do Hallowe'en cards, but I did manage to make a few of my own design and some new designer series papers, and the new in colour cardstocks.

I made the following card for a wonderful lady in our church. Her son went home to be with Jesus, after a courageous battle with brain cancer, in May.



Above is a top view, so you can see how cool the fold really is! :)

I made this card for my friend Lynn, whose husband it was that went to Heaven. I used up old stock, papers, and rub ons. I love how it turned out! (please disregard the wet spots on the lower left side, as the kids got it wet before I gave it to her, argh LOL).

I'm still here
