Michele — Thu, 17 Nov 2011 01:01:00 +0000

As soon as I saw this adorable tutorial on “3 Four and Under” I knew I had to create these for my son’s preschool class. They are having a Thanksgiving celebration tomorrow and I wanted to add to their goodie bags. My son needs lots of practice cutting so I had him help me with…

Back in February I created a Baby Sock Topiary in honor of the arrival of my niece. (See post here). I’m sure most of you know how you would put one of these together, but for those who don’t, or if you’d like to see how I did it, I thought I’d share a little…

Michele — Mon, 21 Feb 2011 21:40:00 +0000

To say I had a great time this past Saturday would be an understatement. A while back I joined the Martha Stewart “Dreamers into Doers” online group. A sweetie from Orlando (Melissa of Truly Chic Inspirations) put out the word that there would be a meet-n-greet for all the Florida members and the rsvp list…

Special Gifts for family

Michele — Wed, 02 Feb 2011 05:30:00 +0000

A few years ago I made some t-shirts for my brother’s children. If you’ve been following you might remember I made some more for them this past Christmas with their initials. Well, I found another little shirt in my “stash of stuff”, just the size of one of my nieces and decided to make her…

Designs to Inspire

Michele — Tue, 18 Jan 2011 22:07:00 +0000

When it comes to design, I’m not one for keeping with the same old thing. I love trying new ways to do things, including card making. I really enjoy hearing or seeing the comments about it after someone opens up a box or a oddly shaped card. One year, for a bridal shower I was…

Autumn

Michele — Thu, 23 Sep 2010 21:40:00 +0000

Ever since I was a little girl I felt the need to rearrange. My bedroom was arranged and rearranged more times than I can remember. My parents worried I would hurt myself because I moved things all by myself. (Picture me underneath my canopy bed lifting it with my back like I was a turtle.)…

Guest Room Tent Cards

Michele — Tue, 10 Aug 2010 19:19:00 +0000

It’s always nice to have a little personal touch when guests come for a visit. Whether it’s just a corner with a sleeping area, or a full fledged guest wing, little notes are always appreciated and seem to always encourage a smile. This past weekend I created some for my in-laws’ visit and I got…

Mother’s Day 2010

Michele — Tue, 11 May 2010 00:08:00 +0000

Made some cards for my mom and mother-in-law. Unfortunately my procrastination/busy schedule has delayed their delivery. Rather than buying the preprinted paper, I like to create my own using art I’ve downloaded or created and print them on card stock. The cutters really help jazz up the layers and the silk flowers are attached with…

Baby Bouquet

Michele — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 14:17:00 +0000

My sister-in-law just had their first little one and I made a bouquet to bring to the hospital, inspired by what I’ve seen online and in gift shops. The main ‘blooms’ are little washcloths, socks and tights rolled up and put on a wire. I put it all together in a planter but they could…

More Cookie Cutters

Michele — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 10:45:00 +0000

A friend of mine asked if I could make her a couple of cookie cutters. I have only made the one for the surprise party way back in July 2008. I was willing to try it and they came out pretty decent! They’re not really something I can do to earn money since they are…

Remember this (here)… It’s finally finished. After a solid week of working 15 hour days, the project is now complete. I made the remaining 9 Records, 10 number circle centerpieces and a box for cards that was intended to be similar to a juke box. I designed the graphics for the record itself and glued…
