I am a Child of God Plaque and a Freebie!! Also Link Up for Pink info!!

 

(Actually three freebies!! Woo Hoo) I created this plaque for a new baby girl (who has since arrived and I have even held her!!) My wonderful Hubby routered the edge and painted this plaque and I used to different colors of vinyl to create this.  I added some ribbon to be used as part of the wall hanging. I also used two different fonts in three different sizes for visual interest. The Mom (in the pic) loved this gift and I am so glad!! I am giving y'all the svg file for this saying and I am also adding two svg files for a wavy banner that are similar to the retired Sizzix Creative Memories wavy banner die(these are available over on the righthand side of my blog under the "My Free SVGs" Heading. Enjoy your freebies!!

The winner of the Scrumptious Sweet Blog Hop is "ScrappinMamma" I have email her and hope to hear from her soon and Congrats. I will have more blog candy soon with two new hops I am participating in next month!

An Apple and A Pumpkin

These boxes from Kelleigh Ratzlaff are so super cute! This is actually a pumpkin but it makes a great apple too with a quick change of paper. The leaves are from my super huge svg stash LOL. To make the stems I used a clear straw, used some Scor-Tape to go around the straw and then wrapped it with some twine I bought at Wal-Mart. These boxes would make great teacher gifts filled with some candy. (I want mine filled with Ferrero-Rocher candy! LOL)

 

Y'all need to go check out Kelleigh's files, they are all so cute and easy to work with, I am loving them!

Scrumptious Sweet Blog Hop

 Welcome to the Scrumptious Sweet Blog Hop, hosted by the Fabulous Yolie. If you have arrived from Norma's Blog then you are in the right place, if you just came to visit, Welcome and please start at the beginning so you are sure not to miss a single fabulous thing!! I created two projects for you and neither is a card! LOL. The first project are two wonderful and fun Cupcake Boxes.

 

 

Both of these fabulous boxes are  from Kelleigh Ratzlaff, I used DCWV papers from their Nana's Kitchen Stack and the Ball Fringe is from hobby Lobby and the pink lace trim is from Michaels. I love how fun and flirty these boxes are, they will also hold a plenty of fabulous Chocolates!! (my gift of choice!)

This next project is one that I have had on my "to Do" list for a while. I have had these large glass jars for a while, I believe that I purchased them from IKEA. I used MTC software and the Font "KontikiEnchanted JF", It was included in a Font Pack from my Yahoo Font Group. I cut these out of red vinyl at 6 inches long and 3 inches tall. We recently painted our kitchen a pale yellow with bright white trim and I want to go with red accents (red is my Favorite color) I love the way these turned out and I filled them with my 2 year old's Favorite cookies and snacks! (needless to say they are gourmet only to the 2 year old set! LOL) 

Leave a comment here for a chance to win a mini album kit and if you are a Facebook Fan leave a separate comment for a second chance at the blog candy.

Subway Art

I was cruising around the net and saw some Subway Art and I love it! I bought a few ceramic tiles the last time I was at the Home Improvement store so I thought I would give it a whirl!

These are so much fun, I just want through my fonts picking as I went! (so don't ask what they are LOL) Then I went through my vinyl scraps and picked Fall colors and started cutting away. Next time I am going to put my words closer together but I am happy with the way this one turned out!
I am picking the winner of the Altered Composition book tomorrow so be on the look out for that, and I hope to have a new project for y'all. (I have a personal goal to try to post more often, now that Summer is winding down (so sad) I should be crafting more. (If only I could sent the 2 year old to school! LOL)

Altered Composition Book Blog Hop

If you have arrived here from Melissa's Blog then you are in the right place. If you just happened to stop by to visit, Welcome and please consider going to Joy's Blog and start this fabulous hop from the beginning!

I created three fun Altered Composition Books for you. These are so much fun! I created a Teacher version, a girl version and a boy version. The first one is the teacher version...

I used papers from my stash, the Apple guy is a My Scrap Chick file "Big Red" and the stamp is from one of Joy's new sets "Holiday Occasions", I created the Welcome in SCAL3 and I used "SF Toontime" font. I added a color coordinated clip and I just love this cute comp book.
My second altered composition book is for a girl and I just love it...

I used a paper from Echo Park's "Sidewalk Chalk" paper set for the binding and Chalkboard vinyl!!!! (Isn't that so super cool! I am in love with this chalkboard vinyl) I cut some shapes from Lettering Delights "Quirky Doodles" and used some chalk to say "School is Cool" and tomorrow I can say something different!
Last but certainly not least is my "Boy" version. I live on the Outer banks of NC and we are known here as the "Billfish Capital of the World" I have a White Marlin hanging on my living room wall that I caught on my 10th birthday. (I come from a very long line of Boat Builders and Fishermen) all of the boys around here are really into fishing and this fits the bill for them!

The papers are from Echo park's "Splash" paper collection, I created the svg for the blue marlin myself and the "Wishin I was Fishin", I created using "Oh {Photo} Shoot" font . I just love the way these turned out and I will be making more of these!!

Good Noodle Card

 

I created this cute card using Lettering Delights "Bento Box" svg set and a Scrappy Moms Stamp from their  "Amusing Animals" stamp set. I used a small piece of rick-rack and inked the edges of the tag (the tag is from the basic shapes collection in MTC or SCAL ). I just love the colors and this card could be for an older child or a man or woman, I love the versatility of it.

Lettering Delights Intricate Boxes

Lettering Delights has come out with a fabulous collection for Intricate Gift Boxes. I created two of them so far and I am in LOVE!!

 

Just Leaves

 Bubbles

These boxes are really nice and sturdy and will hold many things and make gorgeous gift boxes, they can also be made larger or smaller! These can be bought individually or as a set. I bought the set and I am so glad that I did, I want to make them all! I really love these boxes.

If you just happened to come by to visit, Thanks! and please go to Yolie's blog and start hopping at the beginning so you don't miss a single Hot thing!!
I created two projects for you today and both are HOT!! I grow a huge garden every summer, my garden is unusual because everything is grown in containers (mostly 5 gallon buckets) I have 125 tomato plants and 60 pepper plants, many varieties of each. I use the tomatoes and peppers to make Salsa and it is nice and HOT! I make LOTS of salsa, so far I have made 6 cases of salsa. The first project it a Trendy Tool Tote from My Time Made Easy.

I used some red card stock from Recollections and the patterned paper is from Cosmo Cricket's Garden Variety and the tomato tag is from svgcuts.com Veggie Garden II. The two jars of salsa are from my secret recipe!

My second project is also a holder foe two jars of my
hot salsa! This one is also from My Time Made Easy, this one is the "Fancy A Cuppa" The label is from Lettering Delights "Delilah's Tags". I just love these boxes for my salsa and will be making many more especially around the holidays.

Christmas In July Blog Hop Day 1

If you arrived here from Brenna's Blog then you are in the right place, if not please go to  Nicolette's Blog and start this fab hop from the beginning!

I LOVE the project I have for you today!! I used the 3D Letters from www.SVGcuts.com to create "Ho Ho Ho" in 3D. I can't wait until it is time to decorate for Christmas now that I have made these!! All of the H letters are dark red and all of the O letters are in white and then I used different K & Company patterned Christmas papers for the faces of the letters. I also used several www.SVGcuts.com Chirstmas sets to decorate the letters. I used Christmas Cookie Party for the tree and the gingerbread men. I used Comet's Candy Land for the reindeer and Santa's Northpole Workshop for the rest. I used a little twine and inked many of the edges and I used Peachy Keen stamps for the faces of the Clauses and their Elf. I hope y'all like todays project!! Here are each letter, close up.
