Some posters and handouts

I am on the Relief Society commitee to plan and put on activities for the women of our church, in our area.
We are having and activity on Thursday and I was in charge of 'publicity' this time, which means posters and handouts. Here is what I did...

And I put one of them in this frame and put it out w/ some flowers... just something nice to look at

For the handouts I stuck w/ the butterfly theme, but wanted something soft, so I embossed this stamp w/ clear powder to get just a hint of the butterflies. They turned out great. I made a ton, and enjoyed it. I love to watch the powder change form, very cool. Q enjoyed too and sat w/ me to make a card for Megan Smith. I let her pick stamps and colors and she embossed everything! It's great to craft w/ my girl.

Take Note

I've been making these message boards for a while and sold a couple last year at the craft show. Here are some newer ones I've made.
 


A recent project has been this monster message center. It's been at least a year I've had this monster frame. 24x36. Large! Marci and I bought the frame at Hobby Lobby and wanted to make message centers. I think at one point we thought chalkboard something, but I went the cork board route. The frame was gold, I painted it red. There are three elements to it, fabric covered cork, metal for magnets, then wipe board squares for written notes. I LOVE how it turned out! It hangs over my new dresser and looking at it makes me so happy!

Festive Crafts

I made this cute block flag and these wood stars to decorate my home for the month of July. I don't have much by way of patriotic stuff. I need to build my collection! I love how they turned out, they will stay up all month. Happy 4th of July!

Mini book for Marci

When Marci left I gave her a box of goodies to open each week for 4 weeks. A little something to remind her of me a bit each week! The first thing she opened was a mini book. Here are a few pages from that, excuse the bad photos!





Some scrap pages...

Here are some pages I made a while back.

This is one of my sweet E, love those tender times when they are so small.


In Q's kindergarten class they had disposable cameras and took photos of various activities. Great idea! I put them all together on a general layout.


Except this one because there were 'family' photos in there...


I tried a LO w/ those protective pages that are divided. It's a little challenging to think in 'boxes', but I like how it turned out.



And a quick one of Matt's 35th bday.

Canvas Art

Here is a recent piece of artwork I made for a good friend at the dance studio. I used a favorite calandar picture of hers and created this 16x20 canvas that will hang in her room. I love how it turned out... and so does Kristy!



If you are interested in something for yourself or someone you know contact me for info on these. To protect rights of other photographers you'd need to provide me with the image, unless, it's an image of mine!!!
