Creative Surge post-Vacation

I have been in a creative rut lately. My craft room has been in disarray which makes me not want to be in there!  I finally got it reorganized.  I received a new corner desk from a friend who passed away and finally got that incorporated into my space.  Of course, that required a huge rearranging of my room.  It's finally pretty much done and I can stand to be in there creating again.

We just got home from a week in Williamsburg.  We had a great time and saw a lot of historical places.  I wanted to do a couple of thank you cards for my in-laws who provided our rooms for my family and a cousin who played tour guide while we were there.  I spent the cool weather weekend in my lil craft space and was happy with the results.  Here are the two cards I made:

I used "blooms" for the stair step card and "simply sweet" for the free floating card.  (At least I THINK that's what they're called...lol)  I like both cards, but the step one is one of my favorites in a loooooong time.  Would love to hear what you think!

Easter Share

I did a little Easter Card for my granddaughter (who turns 1 today), Kaileigh.  I made the bunny wobble with a homemade wobbler.  Hopefully you can see the side view clearly enough to see the wobbler.

I used the bunny from the Create A Critter cartridge.  He is just too stinkin' cute!  And to see him wobble just makes me giggle.  I'm not sure who got more of a kick out of it....Kaileigh or me!

Hope you all have a very Blessed and Happy Easter.

Happy Easter!

I'm looking forward to doing a little crafting this weekend.  Need to make a birthday card for my granddaughter's 1st birthday on Easter.  Also need to make a sympathy card.  Hoping to play a little and be a little crafty with my Cricut.  If I do, I'll be sure to post.  Until then, I hope you all have a very Happy and Blessed Easter.

Wooden Frames

This was done for a friend with a recent adoption.

Baby Shower Gift for a Boy

So, I thought I would share a few of the wooden frames I've done over the past few months.  I generally do these for gifts or to donate for fund raisers and auctions.  Now that I have my Cricut and SCAL, I am thinking about all the wonderful things I can do to incorporate that into my frames. 

For an Anniversary Gift

Did a matching card too!

For my Boss's Birthday.  He is a hard person to buy for, so I got a little creative.  This is his favorite pet, Tosca.

This was for a fundraiser.

I buy my frames at Michael's.  They are just unfinished frames that I paint and then decorate with various things like paper, stamping, dried/silk flowers, tiles, shells, etc.  No two are ever the same.  I did a bunch of them with a beach theme for bridesmaid gifts for my daughter's wedding two years ago.  They were so unique and a big hit.

I would love to hear your comments.  And if you have any ideas or suggestions, I'd love them too!

Happy crafting!
