My first Christmas Ornament with Sherri Baldy digi

I'm so excited to share with you my first ornament and second DT project. This has been on my mind since I first saw this Digi by Sherri Baldy. As you know I have two girls so this is perfect for me. It was a bit tough getting the image the way I wanted inside the ornament but it turned out just as I expected. Hope you guys like it. You can find the digi at http://scrapbookstampsociety.com











Jewelry organizer

I had an order for a jewelry display and so I thought I would make an extra one for myself. So this is what I came up with. The pink and black I bought the frame from michaels. I painted it black all over, then splattered pink and then white gesso and crackle paint on top. I Put a piece of lace on the back of it that was from a curtain I bought from goodwill. And waahhllaaaa. The purple one I did a bit more fancier. I used a nice picture frames made the background with ribbons and then added more ribbons with a touch of lace over it. I stapled everything to stay in place. She loved it. Hope you guys like it too and will try for yourselves.

Volunteer and Christmas ornament

I volunteered at my daughters pre school class and decided to do a little project for them. So I had them make this ornament that I cut from my cameo. It was a bit tough getting 4/5 year olds to fan fold the papers but it did teach them a great deal of patience and waiting as I helped each one. In the end they got to glitter and decorate their ornaments and they loved it. Even the teacher loved it as well. I think she had the most fun doing hers.

My little roses and a little contest..... For a give away

I'm so excited to have finally sat down and made these tiny little flowers. I've been hoarding my wild orchid crafts flowers and now I can finally use them because I know how to make them. I also now understand why they're so expensive as well because they take forever to make. I have a picture below of all the flowers I did plus one wild orchid craft flower. The first person to guess correctly which is the wild orchid craft flower will receive a special little goodie package from me. ;)

Bird cage with the Cameo silhouette

Wanted to share with you a birdcage that I made. I recently got a Cameo and I must tell you I'm In love. I had to send my cricut expression in for replacement because it never cut right. It always ripped my papers or it doesn't cut all the way through. Not to mention all the expensive cartridges you have to buy. So I decided to sell all my cartridges. And bought my cameo. I'm so glad I did because now I'm able to make creations like this. I will definitely be making more 3D objects to alter.

I used my favorite paper on here from the Prima tea thyme collection along with some yellow cardstock, I didn't add any distress inks but did add some gesso to it for texture. I added some lace as the bottom to cover up the layering of the birdcage. I still have to add a bird but for now I'm happy with it. Thanks for looking.
