Last Few

These are the teacher cards for my son to take to school.

Finally Finished












I finally finished the cards I plan on mailing!



Christmas Cards




I am running so late with my cards this year. To give myself some credit though, this is the first year I have made all my cards. I have found that I like to color the images much more than I like actually making the cards themselves. Anyway these are the first ones I have delivered. They were for the people I work with.

Handmade Christmas present

My first attempt at tile photo coasters. I love the way they turned out. As a crafter I have to admit, this is my first use of mode podge. I hope she likes them.

First Snow







We had our first snow here in Martin Co Kentucky yesterday here are some pictures I took. Usually our first snow is flurries but this year we actually got snow.

I got to play with some toys!

I made this set of Christmas cards for my sister. She needed a few door prizes for a conference she is attending tomorrow so she asked me to make her a few things. For some reason when I uploaded the pictures some of them uploaded turned the wrong way. I used one of my cuttlebug embossing folders and some glitter glue on the card fronts. I got the idea from Billie on some of the yahoo groups I belong to. (Thanks for giving me something to scraplift Billie!)

I also made her these two friend word books. I finally took my bind it all out of the package and used it. I love it. Now I must make more things to bind.




I have seen several different projects lately using the glass block and vinyl. I tried vinyl months ago but couldn't figure out the settings for the "kiss" to leave the backing while cutting the vinyl. I am happy to say I finally figured it out. I used the Storybook cartridge to make the cutouts for the blocks.
I am very happy that I finally got to use some of the materials and tools I have purchased. I feel so much better when I use things instead of letting them just sit.
