Halloween 2012

Another Halloween has come and gone.  Here are some photo memories of the day.

 

My entry for the office pumpkin decorating contest

Treat Bags I made for co-workers.  Made from stamps and die cuts from Jaded Blossom.
The bags are from there  too.  I just love their products!

 

Cinco de Mayo!

How can it be May 2012 already?  My little baby....well....big boy...will be 2 soon. 2!

My creative mojo went on hiatus for a while.  I made this card a few days ago.  I hope the MOJO is back!

This birthday card was inspired by a card I saw at Valita's Designs & Fresh Folds.  

Her work is just amazing!

I used the Build a Blossom Punch from Stampin Up (Mary is my local consultant) and

the flourish is from a die I purchased from Cheery Lynn Designs.  

Sudden Burst of Creativity

I finally found some time to make more cards:

The flower in the card above made with Stampin' Up Build a Blossom Stamp set and punch.  I ordered the Stampin' Up from here.

The flower above is made from a technique called quilling.

I love it!  Some samples below:



Happy Spring!

I made another no-sew fleece blanket this past week.  Looks spring-y.

Being crafty



No-sew fleece blanket

I am not sure how the picture above keeps looking sideways. Back in November 2010, I learned how to make those cozy looking no-sew fleece blankets. I love them!





Valentine Treats

I have used my Cricut Expression to make some Valentine treats.  I am practicing for when I have to make a large amount of them for when Gummy (that is my current nickname for baby boy since he loves to show his gummy smile!) is in school.

The heart shape is a file I downloaded from Christina's Creative Moments.  The round treat cups in the middle are from Stampin' Up! and I used those red hot candies.  I also used the Cuttlebug A2 Embossing Folder:  Heart Blocks.

An Update...

The movements have been stronger, almost to the point where I cannot concentrate at work!  I have started cleaning out the spare room, which has been the computer/storage room.  We have decided on a theme - which did not take much time to decide.  It will be a Seattle Seahawks themed room. 

I am becoming more and more excited as each weeks passes.  My guard is not totally down yet but feeling the movement sure is a great feeling!

Treats, not Tricks

I made these slider packets for my co-workers for Halloween.  I got the idea from My Pink Stamper .  I may do them in a Christmas design in Decemer, with hot chocolate packets!
