cute pin cushions!

I'm a little behind the times, but I tend to stay there!  I saw these  here  a while back and really thought they were super cute!  I wanted to bring a little gift to my daughter when we go and visit her, so I picked up these small frames at Hobby Lobby and turned them into pin cushions!  So easy! 

a dog-gone dilemma...

This is my little dog, Trixie.  She is a Westie and a real cutie.  She loves these squeeky toys.  She actually has several of these colored squeeky (ear piercing!) balls-they are all in the toy basket.  She has never had two of them out at the same time.  A real dilemma...Which one to chew...orange?  Maybe green?  Hmmmm this is quite a problem.  This is also a dog with way too much time on her paws.  Maybe I could teach her to do the laundry. 

a little book

OK, I didn't have anything to post tonight.  I did make this little book a few days ago and I do think it's kinda cute.  I just love to re-cover stuff...it's relaxing.   Not as good as being on the beach with a Pina Colada relaxed, but still...

another journal

This is a journal I made with a lot of Tim Holtz product. The "journal" die on the side-used on the book and then again on a page from an old book, then layered over the die cut.  Lots of stamping, more die cuts (cage), tickets, chain, clip, etc.  I also used Prima flowers, butterflies and swirls.  The paper is either TH or MMY-I can never remember to write this info down!  It is interesting, isn't it?

a journal...

I made this journal a while back and just thought you should see it.  I haven't had a lot of time lately to work on projects, but I am trying to get something posted on this blog. I like this mix of lavender and green...it goes so well together!

something for dad...

This is the shadow box I made for my Dad for Father's Day.  This was from all three of his kids, I just put it together.  This is just a small fraction of the life he had in the Army National Guard.  We (I mean my Mom) is always finding things that need to go in a place to celebrate his working life.  This is it.  Mom has already found some things to add to the box and there are some things we are on the lookout for.  She'll find them...and then we might need another shadow box!

another card, sister...

Gotcha with that title, right?  I haven't posted in a while and I have tried to get better about that so I found this card that I had forgotten about.  I am working on some more projects, so hopefully soon I will be back with something fun!
