baby shower door prizes

Thought I would share the baby shower plates I did for my good friend Connie. There are 36 hand painted, the techique is "One Stroke" Menthod. I really had to practice alittle bit to get the hang if the flower. Plates are black( spray painted), with 3 coats of clear lacquer. Took about 3 days to do, and I was very happy when my little gift was done. She knew I did something special, but just didn't know WHAT it was... "SURPRISE" my friend Connie...

Birthday Card(s)

Here it is almost bedtime for me. Two o'clock really does come early, specially now that I'm old, just not that young chicken anymore. Well today I'll show you the birthday card I made for my grandson.

I also did a shadow box for my future son-in-law.

EASEL CARD

My first project I would like to share with everybody is this cool card. The Easel Card is easy to make, on a scale 1 thru 5, 5 being the easiest, than 5 it is... This is the first Blog that I've done and experience is going to be the BEST teacher for me, so off we GO!

Here are the materials to use, I did forget to include the markers for santa's head wreath.

Cut a 12x12 piece of cardstock in three to make three stripes of 4x12( this makes three cards), and score at

 4" , 6" and 8".

Fold along score lines.

Add double-sided tape or favorite adhesive on the inner folds of the 2" section.

Attach to back of what will be the upright front panel.

Now add you card front and design. I did do the card front ( Larger than the design), glue design and center on card.

For the inside of card, a small strip of paper for the verse to lay on.

  I used gold string to wrap the inside verse card, wrapped around 7 times to make the easel brace for card front. Glue to card, which gives a nice tucked under look.

See ya all later..

What's going up next

Hello Creators, Today I'm running behind. I'm working on a card to post later. Its not a double folded card, but something different.I have to honestly say my supplies are limited, so the COLORS might just be alittle bit ODD, and its alright at times to be different, cause I think the world would be BB-o-rr-ring if we were ALL the saMe. I also have to come up with 2 different Birthday cards.

Need a Bigger Room

Well here it is my room. I have reorganized it so many times it not funny. I even try to sort stuff that I've held on to for' well let's say TOO long.I ordered the Magazine holders from the internet. I really can't fit a table in there, So I go to the kitchen table.
