Bulletin Board Project


This is my latest project. I was at the dollar store and found a corkboard for $2.00. I painted the frame tan and distressed it. I then found a piece of embroidery material and glued it to the cork. I used some ribbon and flowers to decorate. This project cost me a total of about $5.00.

Photo Clips






This is my latest craft. I got the idea from Sugardoodle. Use the bullnose clips (I think that is what they are called) Decorate with fabric or paper, then add embellishments to your hearts desire.

Craft Project "Forever Family"





I did this craft as a Thank you to a friend of mine. I bought the plate at Ikea. The name is 1 1/2" and I used the Cricut cartridge "George and Basic Shapes" "Forever Family" is 1" and I used the Cricut "All Mixed Up" cartridge. This is my first experience with using vinyl for anything other than etching. It worked out pretty good.

I also added a picture of the glass etching I did on her casserole dish with the other piece of vinyl. So, remember don't throw away the outline of the vinyl. Just use it to etch your name on one of your baking pans or casserole dishes. Then you will always get your dish bake.
