Party FUN !!!
Take off with a flying high airplane party with http://www.eatcakegraphics.com/
stamps. I stamped on round tags and placed them on gift bags and water bottles.
I carried the theme tough out with pin wheels and cut out airplane sandwiches.
You could make an airplane for each child using a cardboard box. 
Loads of FUN and good memories!!!


It's that wonderful time of year were we can go to our garden and farmers market for fresh garden vegetables... YUM, YUM !!

Then I assembled each box for a count of 12.
I add some cute embellishments and numbers from 1-12 to the front of each box.
I put a little surprise in each box so the grandchildren could count down the 12 days before Christmas.
Lots of fun for them and me !!!
I thing it could be fun to but little notes of surprise service they could give.
Hope you enjoy.


With the Big Kicks and a fun die  #657726 Score Boards from Sizzix along with some cute Christmas paper.
I made these little box's in no time.
I first cut out the box with a heavy chip board then with my cute paper.
I glued each cute paper on top of the chip board and let dry.

Big Kicks lots of FUN !!!

I am a bit behind on things so I am trying to get caught up on this blog for all of you.
I am so excited I received my Big Kick from Sizzix along with some very fun dies I will be showing you late. This little machine is such a great thing to add to your sewing and craft room.
I even had my little 4 year old grand son making thing with it, he love turning the handle.

 
I got my magnet / chalk board and peg done. YEA!!!
The most was my good husband hanging them up in my sewing/craft room. ( All I can say is I LOVE Them) !!!!
I hung the magnet board above my sewing machine so I can put the directions of what I am sewing in from of me.
These were so simple to do. I got the frames from Micheal's when they had a blow out sale for 10.00 each. YEA !!!
and then the metal  I got from home depot and washed it with vinegar and let dry after that I just sprayed painted it with the chalk paint.
I is nice to have things in sight.
