Today's projects

I think my goal should be to post once a month, eh?

Today I finished up a few projects that I've been working on.

My sister Tracy bought the pattern for these cute little Father's Day blocks, so we mass-produced them for her Primary class of 7, my class of 11, and my niece's class off 6. So, if your kid is in my Primary class - they will be bringing one of these home in a few weeks! It was practically free to make, I just had to buy the little clothespins.

And this is my bag for card swap this month. I fell in love with the paper and had to have it. It was fun this month to make a bag instead of a card, but lots more work (and $$). I'm excited to see the 8 bags I get back!

Teacher appreciation week

Next week is teacher appreciation week at school. I was asked to help and I had SO MUCH FUN doing these projects! You know when you have a vision in your head of how things will turn out? Neither of these ended up how I saw them, but I'm still pleased!
Her class is totally out of gluesticks. Maddie has been complaining about all week, so I made her a glue stick bouquet with 30 glue sticks. It's a little over-stuffed with flowers, but oh well! I filled the jar with M&M's. Thanks to Jennica for the sticks.

And this is for her door. Those are bananas. Jeramy gave me a hard time about the moons with monkeys. Each banana has a child's name on it. (the blank ones are for the afternoon class). Thanks to Christi for letting me drool all over her Cricut Expressions.

And thanks to Marie for letting me do this - it's been so fun to have a project to keep me busy this week!

magnet board

Here's the kids' magnet board for the playroom. I'm not crazy about the paper I chose, but oh well. Macie has already peeled all the letters off, so I'll probably just redo the whole things soon enough.

It's been a while...

Here's a few of my lastest projects. This is my card for card swap with the magical pink/black ink.

These are the famous Easter blocks. Not as awful to make as the Valentine's Day blocks. My father is a very patient man.

And I did this bag for a baby shower I'm going to tonight. I am loving the Doodlecharm font for my Cricut.

Hopefully more posts to come...

Layouts # ???

Macie's first Halloween

Macie while Forsyths and Perkins were here

Lindsay's book random picutres.

I'm going to have to admit, I haven't done any layouts this week. :( These are from last week. I've been working on the Primary bulliten boards for the rest of the year, so I'll post that later!

Day # 9, 10, 11, 12 & 13 - I think.

Oh man. I've been trying to get stuff done, but losing steam. Might be a few days before I get a chance to work on some more pages. I am excited about the progress I've made. I've been skipping around a lot now. This first one is how we chose Macie's name.


Playing at Grandma Jeans for Maddie's book.
T-Point farm for Maddie's book. I need to print the pictures still for the blank page. Yes, Kristen, I Cricuted the animals.
I've been making bows again. My niece's boyfriend works for American Craft and hooked me up with some ribbon. Felt like Christmas for me! Now if only my girls had clothes that matched...
My messy little eater Macie. Love the flowers on the bottom of this one...Cricut.
