Choir Singer

My sister gave me this book folded choir singer to decorate. She did the book folding and lace on the bottom and the snowflakes background. I added the arms, hymn book, crown and hair (Ilove the hair).  This choir singer will definitely be at our craft fair this November. 

Another project that I made for our yearly get together with friends that I attended Greely High School, are these patriotic pinwheels. Our host wanted a patriotic theme because it is our country's 250th Anniversary.  The centerpiece is a 1776 mug that was given to me so I just added some stars and more pinwheels. The tablecloth was perfect! We had a couple of girls that couldn't attend but here we are before the Nor'easter hit our region. Zara photobombed our photo!

Fall is here!


Just across the street from our house! So beautiful! Loving the colors of autumn. The cold weather has arrived too! As they say, it is "sweater weather"!




Love this style card! Found it on Pinterest and had to make it for my daughter-in-law's birthday which was yesterday. The paper is from Graphic 45.  Another card to showcase is for my sister and her husband's anniversary! 

Again I used the same Graphic 45 collection which I think is called Curiousity. So pretty! Happy 21st Anniversary!

Same Birthdays!


 My daughter's birthday was this past week and she is a reader! She puts on Instagram her monthly books that she has read. I love this card for her and she was very impressed.  It is an easel style card which gives you enough space for the image.  The back of the card gives you some room but not a lot for the sentiment but it can be put inside the card.


Also, I made a card for a very good friend who has a birthday the same day as my daughter.  She has told me she has been having problems with groundhogs, possums  but she has never seen a racoon yet. The card below is for her birthday which says everything.  I thought it was so appropriate for her!! 

Again the sentiment is on the other side of the card which is a small area but it is doable!  She got a kick out of it.  Happy Birthdays Girls!

September Has Arrived!


 Love making a Z-Fold card. This one is a for a friend of my daughter who does a lot of bicycle riding. He has the cutest little dog so I had to add her in the basket. All of the images are dies that I have from Stampin up, Sizzix and Dynamics.  



These "Flag" styled cards are fun to do too! Perfect for putting little messages on the banners. Another September birthday and there are more to come.  Fall is the best time of the year in my opinion with beautiful warm days and cool nights.
