My latest cards

I had to make a set of birthday cards for a card swap coming up and I just love my paisley cricut cartridge. I am finally getting to use the nesting dolls for something. I couldn't figure out how to make them open up maybe a friend could suggest something so I just connected them using a brads. They came out very colorful and I hope everyone thinks the saying on them is clever. Oh I didn't take a picture of the envelopes but they have a stamped doll in the bottom left corner of the envelope.

Infinity Scarves

I just got done making two Infinity scarves for a good friend of mine. They were quick to make and only took one skein of yarn to make. I made them 53 inches around and about 7.5 inches wide crocheted. I think these scarves will be very popular this winter along with the cowl scarves also. So we are ready for Fall!

Look what I did!

A friend taught me how to do this fabric/paper journal. I really like it and it was fun to make. Almost everthing was sewn on only a few stickers here and there. I finished it in two days. I think this is the quickest I have finished something.lol Now all I have to do is write in it.

Finished the Snuggle up Blanket

We recently changed the style of our tv room. We are going comtemporary now and it looked to plain so I wanted to throw some color in. I am aiming towards red but not too much. I thought if I had a nice throw I could lay across the dark brown leather sofa it would give some color to the area. I used the pattern called snuggle up #69 from a crochet book I believe it was a leisure arts book I purchased at Hobby Lobby. I used TLC yarn in the colors Barn Red, Golden, Dark Brown and Celery. I have always loved these colors together.So we are set to snuggle up on the coach and watch tv together.

My lazy sunday

It is Sunday and I have so many things I want to do all at the same time! I want to crochet on a blanket that I am almost done with. I want to work on my new art journal and actually get some journaling done in it. I want to rearrange my bedroom and sit outside in my garden? I think if I had a craft room this could all be done but I have to do my projects in the appropiate spaces. So I guess I will just sit here looking at more blogs and getting inspired to do many new things. Maybe Monday will be the day I get some of these things done.

This is my garden nowadays

I am trying to make it more colorful and I took away the hot black table and chairs. There is only 2 chairs showing here but if anyone wants to join me there is plenty more chairs. Hint Hint.

Mother's Day Cards

I have alot of special friends that I wanted to say Happy Mother's Days to. They are extraordinary women who make a difference in this world and their children will prove this in the future. Hope each of them have a very special day and know they are loved.
