Redo of the Bra Card

Had to redo the bra card because there was some people that said it looked like a butt so here is the new version.




Cards I've Made

So yesterday and today I made 2 cards. The first one is a sympathy card for my husband to send to his mom's best friend whose husband just died. I found the quote online from a stamp site. I had hubby choose which one he liked.


Hubby's work is always having bake sales and things to raise money for Breast Cancer. I asked him if they had a poster or anything saying "Thanks for your support" and he said no. So I made this card should they want to use it on their tables. It was so much fun to make.

#129 Green

When my FIL called and asked if the girls could make him green, I just knew that this picture would be perfect for this one.

He was playing in a St. Patty's golf tournament today and wanted to be all green!

Tiny Basket

On one of my groups that I am on they had a video of this tiny basket. It was just too cute not to try! So I sat down with hubby and after 31 years finally learned how to read a ruler and made one on my own! So I sit down with my mom today to show her how to make it and made her one. This is the one that I made for my mom and we added Easter grass to it.

If you go to YouTube and type in tiny basket you will find it. It will be the one that says Tiny Basket With Dawn.

End of the year gift

I'm working on a end of the year gift for my daughter Abby's teacher. I'm planning on making Thank you cards and notecards. We went to Michaels on Friday to pick up some supplies and then came home and I got one notecard done before I got sick. I told my husband that I'm not allowed to make anymore gifts because it seems that I get sick when I make gifts LOL Of course I love making gifts and seeing peoples reaction to them.

I was going to do the cards in her favorite colors, but didn't hear back from Abby's teacher until today. So I will probably make the thank you cards in her favorite colors. Since she is a teacher I chose primary colors for the note cards.

Here is the note card that I got done:

I chose white card stock and then like I said above primary colors. The colored card stock is already cut which is awesome! I printed out Abby's teachers name on my printer and then used a stamp that I got in the $1 section at Michaels and used my Making Memories pencils and colored in the flower. I plan on making 50 of them. OH MY!! What have I got myself into LOL

Baby Birth Announcements!

A very good friend of mine just had a baby a week ago and I decided that I would make some birth announcements for her as a present. My whole family got sick so it got put to the wayside, but then we got better and away I went. I used the matchbook concept to make them. It was a lot of fun to make and something different in the process. I hope you enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed making them!

(I marked out their last name for privacy)
