For My Neon Girl

Necklace and matching stretchy bracelet. I picked up a bling A and peace sign charm at Target awhile ago, they go in the box with this. They just clip on, so she can wear one with the necklace if she wants too.

Those tiny tiny beads were a pain to dig through to find the colors I needed, but the end result looks great. Not in this pic. *pout* I really can't seem to take pics of my jewelry.

Necklace for Grandma

I really need to figure out how to take better pictures. The beads and crystals on this necklace just didn't want their picture taken.


So bonus pic, this is a bracelet I made years ago. BFF has one just like it.

Christmas Stationary Boxes


Made two stationary boxes with 6 cards, 6 note cards and 12 tags all from the SU Simply Scrapping Kit Christmas Jingle. I added a post-it note holder for notes to mine and also altered a pen with the designer paper to match.

Right now this is one of my favorite things I ever made! So cool!

MDS Header and Background

Just got my SU My Digital Scrapbooking software. Had to play and see how to make blog headers and background. Seems sort of easy. Need to play more with it to make them look better though.

Christmas Tea Holder


Fun little gift for a friend across the land. The inside poem is...
On Christmas Day,
At half past three,
Have yourself a cup of tea.


I’ll think of you.
You’ll think of me,
Sitting around the Christmas tree.
Cardstock cut 3 1/4 by 9 3/4, score at 3 1/4 and 6 1/2. Diagonal cut last piece for tea pocket.
I used Night of Navy here with white whisper for the snow flakes. Snowman is from the Frosty stamp set.

Mini Photobooks and Magnets

Some magnets made from tiny tiles and colored in Sharpies. I'm going to try my SU markers next time, although those aren't permanent ink.
A couple mini photobooks, first a family themed one. Recepient can add their own photos to the pages. They're mini, so fit nicely in purse for a mini brag book.


And a Christmas themed one.

Quilt Birthday Cards

These cards are inspired by Michelle and Cecelia, the crazy HO quilters. *waves*



Card stock is Close to Cocoa, Barely Banana and some designer paper I don't remember the name of.

I used my 1 inch square punch to make the quilt squares.

Happy Birthday is stamped in Chocolate Chip.

Coasters-My first try

I want to make stamped tile coasters for Christmas gifts this year. This was my first tries at it. I'm still trying to decide on stamp sets to use for this.

Breast Cancer Gift Set


So what do I price this at? I need help!!!
Set includes 2010 calendar bookmark, 2010 rip off magnetic calender and small glass ball ornament.

Gable Box


Small gable box, it's not made with card stock but with some SU designer paper. It would hold a small light gift.

Christmas 2009


Stamp set is Branching Out, card stock is Bordering Blue, Night of Navy and Whisper White.
I haven't decided if I will put a sentiment on the front, I may leave it blank and serene. Just have a Christmas verse inside the card, I think.

Halloween Twizzlers



Saw little candy holders like these at the craft show today. Whipped some up with scraps.

Stamp set used was Booglie Eyes, used scraps of Only Orange, Whisper White, Basic Black and Chocolate Chip.

The bottom is crimped to make a little packet. DD will be taking these to school for her friends on Halloween.

Crochet Necklaces




The top necklace is three strands, bottom is five. I was making this from memory and I think the one Paula showed me was five strands?




These are some colorful three strand ones.






Here's what the different strand sizes look like on.

Necklace for Mom

Mom bought these beads in Chicago this past winter and asked me to make her a necklace with them.

Don't scroll down Mom if you want to be surprised. I plan on delivering the necklace when I pick up the quilt.


BFF got me a Beading a Day calendar for Christmas, and it was a pattern for a lariat necklace that I thought would work great with these beads. Ofcourse I couldn't find the pattern once I sat down today to make the necklace. So I had to go from instinct and memory. I hope she likes it. If not, I'll just try something else. LOL
