This Week's Projects

I made these 3 things for a lovely gal this week. I got a great deal on the frames and the projects were fairly quick to put together. I got my inspiration for this first one from Splitcoast Stampers, but the other two are my designs. I'm pretty pleased with the results! And my SIL seemed happy that she asked me to make them for her. :)

Until next time,

Happy crafting!

A Birthday Card and Updated Family Frame

Happy Birthday to my husband's mother!! Her cake decorations matched her card which I thought was wonderfully unplanned! We had a great afternoon with them, eating some spaghetti and meatballs, garlic bread, and salad, and finishing it off with some yummy cake and ice cream. I love birthdays!!

You may remember THIS post I did last year. I went on a name frame craze and made a bunch! Take a look at the one I made for one of my older brother's and his family. (It's almost identical to the one you see below). Since I made their frame, they have gotten rid of the cat and added a baby girl to the family! So I had to update their frame. All I did was re-stamp all the family members and use dimentional stickies to stick them to the paper. That way they all pop out a little. Baby Anna went right on top of the kitty that was already there and voila! Their lovely family of 5 is complete!!
What's next on my craft list? A couple things, actually. I would like to make some "we've moved" cards because my family and I are moving next weekend! Then I would like to make a tu-tu for my daughter. Click on the Paige and Brooke button on my right sidebar to find the instructions.

Until next time,

Happy Crafting!

My Mom's Birthday Gift

I've been trying to make my parents a name frame for a while now, but I never really loved what I came up with. This one, though, I have to say is beautiful! I love how it turned out!

Summer's Frame

This was made for a 3-year-old girl. I used chunky glitter on the chipboard letters and I love how it looks!

Latest Project

I made this frame for a friend of mine. She had a little girl just a few days after my son was born. I designed this particular name frame. I just started with punching the letters out with a flower punch and then went from there. I added glitter to the grass and I really like how that brings out the color. I just love pink and green together!

I added 4 tiny pearls to the butterfly's body, just for an extra touch:

Name Frames

I just love making name frames!!! It's so much fun, and there are so many different techniques and designs to play with. Check some of these out that I've made recently:

For my new son: (This is my original design)

For one of my brothers:

This is actually the first name frame I ever made. I made it for my daughter. Not too shabby for the first one ever:
I would love to sell some name frames, so if you are interested in me making one for you or a friend, please contact me! I have many options and designs available!
