Hello again! Im on a roll this week!! 2 blog posts down! woo hoo!
lol
Last night I did a last minute project for a colleague at work. She had her 40th birthday 2 days ago (which i MISSED! gosh, I'm such a horrible friend!!)
Anyhow, I was up until 1am trying to put this together. I wanted to do something other than my traditional card. So this is what I came up with!! Let me know what you think!? Also, her favorite colors are pink and brown. So I used those colors as my starting point!
I hung it in her office, so she would see it when she got in :)
The owl is cut at 5 inches from the Create a Critter Cartridge (my all time favorite!)
The flower shapes are from accent essentials at 4 1/2 inches and 4 inches for the smaller layer.
The letters are from the Cricut Cartridge Robots. (I can't remember what the size was!)
I used brown sheer ribbon to piece all the pieces together (I punched the holes with my crop a dile)
The rose is from the cricut flower shoppe cartridge (Another new favorite!). The butterfly is a recollections butterfly from Michaels :)
This is the first banner I have ever done and it was SOOOOOO much fun to see it come together! this is the first project that came out exactly how I pictured it in my head! lol I feel accomplished! :)
Wow, what a month, so far. I have been so busy it's been crazy. Before I started the blog, I had entirely too much time on my hands....now that I have a blog that I desperately want to keep up with, I can't seem to find the time! How the heck did that happen?!
Anyhow, to all the beautiful ladies out there; HAPPY MOTHER's Day!!
Today is bittersweet for me, because this is the first Mother's Day that I am without my wonderful mother. I'm trying to keep a smile on my face, nonetheless though!
Well, here are 2 mother's day projects that I have been working on this past week
I completed a mini album and Mother's Day card to give to my boyfriend's mom. Her favorite color is yellow, so I was sure to put a lot of yellow in there! LOL
She loves all things handmade and I figured this would be perfect.
