Halloween Birthday Banner.

 So I realize it has been a while since I posted on one of my fun crafty creations.  It has been a very busy spring and summer.  The weather is starting to turn cool and you know what that means, right?  I get the urge to start creating.  My lovely friend is celebrating her daughters first birthday and she asked me to create a Halloween themed happy birthday day banner and here it is.  I customized it so that if she wants to use it for future birthdays she can!  So cute!

Snappy Valentine's Day.....

This year Hayden really wanted to make some unique Valentines for his friends. I searched for some ideas and found this cute idea from Skip To My Lou. They ended up being a lot more work than we anticipated but Hayden's class loved them. The pink alligators were made for Hayden's teachers. We put Hershey kisses in the pink alligator bellies and a sucker in each of the green alligators. I hope everybody had a great Valentine's Day! :O)

The cutest bowling goodie bags ever! It is not easy finding bowling themed party decor so I had to design my own. The goodie bags turned out so much better than I expected. :O)

Decorative Wood Blocks / Christmas Gifts

I have been a busy little elf making gifts for people to give away or keep to add to their Christmas decor. Here are just some of the things I have made. :O)
























This is a custom ceramic tile I decorated for a friend. I really like the simplicity.

Baby girl jungle theme diaper cake.


In celebration of my friends new baby girl I made this diaper cake for her. Her shower theme was a jungle safari. I was so happy to make it for her and had a lot of fun coming up with ideas. All of the animals and scenery can easily be taken off and used as embellishments for her baby scrapbook. I also added some baby rattles, pacifiers, washcloths, and a cute picture frame. This is the first diaper cake that I have ever made and I look forward to making more. :O)

Funny Halloween Block


Ok so you would think that I was done with Halloween crafts by now. I just can't help myself! Here is a decorative block I made. I love the saying. I think it suits my life just fine...hee....hee. :O) I used my cricut to cut out the vinyl letters. I used my SCAL program and the BlueType font from my computer.

Ghost Footprint Art.


I got this cute idea from a preschool art project. I decided to put my own spin on it. I used a piece of 8 x 10 canvas, a picture frame I got on sale at JoAnn's for $2.00, acrylic paint (black, white, and orange). Oh and don't forget the stickles glitter! I painted my kiddos tootsies and wallah! Footprint ghosts. This will be a great keepsake for many more Halloweens to come! :O)

Mummy cookie suckers.

I made these oh so cute cookie suckers the other day. I plan to give them away to some unsuspecting friends at a Halloween party on Saturday. I got the idea from howdoesshe.com click here for the link. My candy coating did not turn out as smooth as hers, I think she may have used white chocolate. I used Wilton candy coating. I also had to make my own eyes. I still think they turned out cute. I used my Mini Monsters cartridge for the phrase. :O)
