The winner of last weeks giveaway is "Kristen". So Kris, when can you pick up your Thankful sign (JK ,I wish)

Memory book

This is the cutest mini-album I've made so far. Probably because it was a kit I bought at The Scrap Coop , so I can't take any credit, but since they aren't around anymore I'll show you how they did it.

Use the bigger envelopes and alternate which way the flap is.

Then fold them in half like so. To bind it together. Punch two holes in the crease, and use string or ribbon to hold it together. Then all you need to do is decorate it like a scrapbook.

Jewelry

I hope you will forgive me for the horrible photography. I have been having so much fun, stayin up late watching TV and making jewelery, but I sure have a lot of it.

More Aprons

Here is an idea.
I put together a little cookie baking set (you could probably just get some stuff at the $1 store) and give your girl an apron to go with it. We have given this as birthday gifts to one of her friends as well.


This apron is just for an idea, I helped my daughter sew it, it was an experiment, and its not perfect but she loves it, and she loves it when we can recycle old clothes too.

This is a mens apron, I have a ton of this fabric if I use this fabric,

Favorite Season

We are approaching everyone's favorite Season at our house. Nope..... I am talking about Birthday Season. I have seen these cute Birthday Banners all over so I whipped one out with my cricut machine. I have wanted to have a traditional banner and tablecloth to get out especialy on their Birthdays. This will;
-make Birthday decorating cheaper (since they are getting to old for themed birthdays anyhow.)
-start a new fun tradition.
-make their birthday a little more special, instead of another day leading up to Christmas.
I just wish I had a cute fireplace to hang it on. Can you believe we live in ID and don't have a Fireplace? They are fairly quick to make. If you would like one. You can bring your own paper and use my cricut, or I can make you one for {$10}. Less if you want to put it together with your own ribbon. :) Craft night Thursday Nov. 13th and Dec. 4th. emai lme for details or check my other blog.

So here is the giveaway for this week. I hope you like it. It was really fun and easy to make, I used my cricut to cut out the letters and they are just glued on. I am dieing to try and cut vinyl with my cricut, I've even bought the vinyl, I am just trying to think of the right saying. What would be cute on a big square tile?

Okay to enter this weeks giveaway,

HOLLY

Congrats Holly, Let me know which ones are your faves.

I probably won't be posting much jewelry for a while. I ruined my camera and had to take these pix with Jeffs (cheap) pink work camera, and it takes a descent camera to take pix of tiny things.

Another Apron

I had a lot of fun making this apron, it took a lot of practice to come up with the pattern but I've almost perfected it. You can see the one I made for my friend Katie here. If you would like THIS one it is {$15}.
