Mini Album - Baby Boy

I used Graphic 45 box and created a little mini album made from tags. 

Our Table at the Irving Texas Expo

 We decorated our table for the Irving Expo competition!

Cruising the Caribbean

I finally decided how to display several of our favorite Caribbean Cruise pictures.  Love how this turned out and fits perfectly in the alcove in my hallway.

Happy Birthday Teddy!

 

The Carousel

YAY!!!  I finally finished my carousel.  

I attended a class taught by Jim Hankins, The Gentleman Crafter, at Big Mouth Scrappers in Forney, TX back in November.  I loved working with the Graphic 45 papers and Jim made the project easy to follow and so much fun.  No stress classes - love'm!!!

Unfortunately, I had to leave early from the class to go to the airport, but Jim and Cesar made sure I had everything I needed to complete my project.  The only thing they could not provide was time for me to actually sit down and work on the carousel.

I didn't follow all of the very detailed instructions Jim provides with his projects, I added a few of my own touches...

Now it is time to finish my RaRe OddItiEs LaB - another class project from Jim...

Christmas Ornament Gift Card Holders

A quick gift card holder for those last minute gifts...

Note to self for next year - pick up gold foil paper to cut the ornament top (just because I want a little more bling).

Oh My - Where has 2015 gone???

This year has flown by so quickly.  Work has been crazy busy and I have had very little time to craft.  My New Year's resolution for 2016 - more crafting time and work weeks of no more than 40 hours!!!  

I was able to make a few Christmas boxes and fill them with homemade fudge and peanut butter balls.  When I began the project I thought I would make 10 - 15 boxes.  Well - you know what they say about best laid plans...  
I ended up making a total of 45 boxes!!!  

Here's a pic of the first batch of boxes.



Tasty fudge and peanut balls inside the boxes...
