Zipper Bow Tie

It has been since November 2, 2011 since I posted.  My son had a terrible accident on that day and I have been taking care of him since.  Well, I'm back and all is well!  Giving all thanks to God!!

A week ago a co-worker showed me a picture of a bow tie she wanted made of zippers.  I said...humm I think I can do that so here it is...I enjoyed making it so much.  After looking at it......it can be a bow tie or hair bow just depends on the type of clip or elastic that you use! Enjoy and visit again soon.

Flannel and Fleece

Greeting Everybody!  It is a GREAT DAY!  I know that it has been a really long time since I blogged!  Sorry about that....had to get a few things straight. I had to consult with my heavenly father about a some things and be sure that I was listening to HIM.  So with all that being said... my blog will be different than before.  I want to be a blessing to others...not just to my family but my friends, strangers and fellow crafters too! 
I will be sharing more than just cards..... crafts, canvas, sewing, inspiration & tutorials.  I think I am becoming like my dad and grandfather as they say "A jack of all trade master of none!!! LOL
So, lets get crafty

Flannel and Fleece

I have made several of these little cuties in the past weeks and realized that I never posted one.  This is a baby blanket for my hair stylist.  One day I was sitting under the hair dryer closing up a cutie patootie of a little girls blanket and she said  oooohh I want a boy blanket and as the story goes...one led to another and another.  I also make the burp cloths to match.  So Enjoy and go do great things!

M.A.G Challenge by the Page # 38

Greetings Scrappers!  Let me say this was a HUGE jump for me.  I hardly ever use my cricut!  I always had problems with it cutting...I change the needle and still had problems so I knew it was just something that was not for me.  Then tonight I decided to get another set of needles and low and behold !! It cuts...LOL...I said ok ...I'll give this a run!  So here you are!  Thanks to a dear friend that invited me to check out the blog page... I decided to take the challenge since I had this cartridge!  It's not so bad after all!!

Hope you enjoy my country scene with a city glow!

I had such a wonderful birthday party at our local Scrapbook Store Memories by design your scrapbook boutique! .
I was showered with love and affection!  It was a BLAST!  We laughed (so hard to some of us got a nose bleed!), we ate the most delicious Birthday Cake and enjoyed the best Coffee Punch ever! The Best part was my scrappy friends...I wonder did we get anything done????  Marcia the store owner indulged us with a sale table and a never ending TAB..so we could scrap and shop til' we dropped! 

The party favors were a pleasure to make and can be made to suit any event!
Well, that's a little scrappy fun news.  Hope you enjoy the project. If you want to know the recipe for the party favor just leave me a comment with your email address and I will send it to ya!  Have a crafty day!

Great Strength Comes from Faith in God

Greetings- Recently I have had several friends to share with me the trial and tribulations that they are experiencing.  I began to pray and pray, I asked the Lord to send peace and comfort to each of them.  I asked the Lord to allow them to feel His presence and remind them of His word that He would never leave them nor forsake them.  As I sit there loving on the Lord he reminded me that Great Strength Comes from Faith in God!  So I began to pray for "Increased FAITH"  Wow!!  how awesome is He!

BFB AWARD

Thanks to LaKesha for my Best Friend Blogger Award!  It is much appreciated!  Being thought of is such a wonderful feeling! Thanks again!  I have been on a short vacation and celebrating my birthday!  So now back to the ultimate playtime!
