An Altered Journal for the my sewing friend

I made this for a good friend of mine who is always making quilts or sewing goodies for her grandchildren. It didn't start out to be a sewing journal at all. But when I used the image I realized that it is a vintage advertisement for thread, so I just took it from there. Thanks so much for stopping by and would love for you to leave a comment, it makes me smile!!

The Rooster May Crow

I found an awesome blog that is run by Abbie and she offers all sorts of free vintage images. Please go check it out..http://thevintagemoth.blogspot.com/

The picture and annual egg record ledger both came from her blog. I cut the scalloped frame from Cricut Stretch your imagination (card frame shift) at 5" and the Jasmine corner (blackout) at 5"

Thanks for looking and have a creative day!

What a wonderful thing!!

What a nice surprise that Carole awarded me this great award. It's such an honor. Please go vist Carole's blog at http://www.crayola58a.blogspot.com/ I promise you will be amazed by her talent.

Okay, the rules for this is that I have to list 5 of my addictions and 5 of my favorite blogs.

Here are the addictions I am willing to confess to, LOL

diet coke

paper

ribbon

embellishments

and I am recovering Department 56 addict.

It is almost impossible for me to come up with 5 favorite blogs, but if you are here visiting my blog then I would like to pass this award onto you. Leave a comment so I can visit you and see what you are addicted to. I hope 2009 is treating everyone good so far.

Acrylic Card

I have seen some gorgeous acrylic cards made by some very talented people. This one is very simple as it's my first and I needed to figure of the logistics of how to do one. I'm sending it to my sister for her birthday. Hope she likes it.

Baby Card

Our family has been blessed with a new baby. My nephew and his wife welcomed a new baby girl into the world a few weeks ago, and I just got around to making a card. The little girl outfit is from the Cricut New Arrival cartridge. Thanks for looking.

Masculine Birthday Card

The ole' guy card challenge....I needed to make a birthday card for my brother and real quick. No cricut on this, just a little tease about him being older. The sentiment on the outside says

Remember

When we were kids..You were always reminding me that you were older than me..

INSIDE

Now it's my turn to remind you that you were right.

Thanks for looking and have a wonderful creative day.
