Mother's Day

I teach six and seven year olds in my church.

It was my turn to teach on Mother's Day so I  made

them a little something that they could give their mom.

The flower is made from a mold using candy melts.

Super easy!  The cute tag that is from a song 

was a freebie from My Computer is My Canvas.

They are the Mother's Day Leaf Tags.

I then imported them into my Silhouette 

and had it do the cutting out!

The card is made from a brown paper sack.

HERE is where I found the tutorial and 

printables  to make this card.

Un-frog-getable Mother's Day

Un-frog-getable Mother's Day card.  I used Treasure Box Designs

Cuckoo Critter Frog.  I think she is super cute!!

I did a print and cut on my Silhouette Cameo with the frog,

and the paper is from Lettering Delights and is in

the Lil Peanuts paper pack.

I printed both the background paper, the frog and the sentiment

on photo paper so that the colors are more vivid.

The frog is attached with pop dots.

I used Michaels Recollections 5"x 6.5" cards and envelopes.

I haven't used these in the past, but bought some at a recent

sale and I have to say that I have quite enjoyed them.

Teacher Appreciation

This has been such a fun week.  We started it by decorating our teachers door 

and then brought her a surprise gift each day of teacher appreciation week.

All of these projects are super simple my little guy

was able to help on every project which

makes it all the more special.

The cookies are from PPBN Designs.

#1 Teacher

This tin can was found at Hobby Lobby

The flowers are from the Cricut Cartridge George and Basic Shapes 

and the #1 Teacher is from the Cricut Cartridge Makin' the Grade.

This adorable idea was found on The Happy Scraps Blog 

with one slight adustment.  I measured the top of the dry erase marker

and then created a circle that size in my Silhouette program

and grouped it together with my George flower. 

It was my little guys idea to color the flowers

the color of the marker and he had a BLAST doing it!

World's Greatest Teacher!

This project was made using a download from

My Computer is My Canvas,

The wrappers are printed out and wrapped

around nugget candy bars.  The ones with 

the toffee are my favorite.

Teacher You're The Balm

The printable for the eos lip balm is from

Simple as That.

For The Best Teacher Ever! 

This is another download from

My Computer is My Canvas.

These are magnets made from bottlecaps.

I Touch the Future. I Teach.

This phrase was purchased from the Silhouette Store.

The cup was from the local Dollar Tree and 

the sentiment from Crazy Little Projects.

Inside the cup it some Propel flavor packets.

That's how we roll!

This is a 6x6 card made for my son's birthday.

He is fifteen and his birthday requests are:

Panda Express Gift Card

Sushi for his birthday dinner

and Cadbury mini eggs 

(good thing his birthday is around easter!)

I got these adorable graphics from Pretty Paper Graphics.  

This file is called Silly Sushi.

I didn't have much time to create this card so I used the .png files.

I printed the files on photo paper, and then

I cut the graphics out with my Silhouette Cameo.

The paper in the background is from Lettering Delights and is

found in the Ninja Kicks paper pack.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse

Fun Mickey and Minnie Mouse birthday card!

I hate that it has the dated stamped on it, :)

yes I can be a slacker!

I used the Cricut Cartridge Mickey and Friends and

spiced it up with some glitter for Minnie and

Glossy Accents on the eyes.

These cuties are connected to the card with an

action wobble so that it wobbles!!!

I have entered this card in the Action Wobble Challenge.

Baymax

I don't know about you but I loved the movie Big Hero 6.

This card was made from an SVG by PPbN Designs.

The embossing is from the Cuttlebug folder Chicken Wire.

Frozen Card

Fun Frozen themed card.

Found the picture from a google search,

and the paper is from a digital file from Lettering Delights,

Dino-mite Valentine

Valentine goodie bags for my sons Kindergarten class.

Most of the goodies inside came from Michaels.

The tiny heart embossing folder is from Hobby Lobby.

The cute dinosaur is from Doodle Dragon Studios.

And the sentiment is from My Pink Stampers Happiest Moments.

St. Patricks Day

Each year for St. Patrick's day I cover my children's doors with

shamrocks and a sign that says You've been sham"rocked"!

Kind of a fun spin off of the heart attack idea.

This year these cute little jars of gold will be waiting for them at

at the end of their rainbow!!

Each rolo has a cute little pattern or saying on the bottom of it.

I found these cute printables in the etsy store

My computer is my canvas.

14 Days of Valentine's

I decided to do the 14 days of Valentine's for my family this year.

Here are the treats that they received.  I am missing one. 

It was "You're a CHIP off the old block" and came with a can of Pringles.

I packaged each treat individually because it ended up saving money in the long run.

I just bought big bags and divided it up equally.

I got my saying ideas from Here, there is even a free printable!

I might be a peanut...

Another valentine.  Funny story behind this valentine, I had been doing the 14 days of valentine's for my kids this year.  Each day they woke up with some sort of treat and a "Punny" saying that went a long with it.  One day after my five year old woke up and I read the saying to him he came up with his own.  "I might be a peanut, but I would risk my life to save my friends!", and then he would laugh hysterically.  I never really got the pun, but oh well, he repeated it daily!

I decided that would be the perfect sentiment for his valentine this year and this SVG fit perfectly.

This SVG is from Little Scraps of Heaven.

The background is from an embossing folder called tiny hearts 

from The Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby).

The twine is made by Maya Road and is also found at Hobby Lobby

with a 40% off coupon it is an awesome deal.

We "TINK" you are amazing!

I know it is a little late for Valentine's Day cards, but here it is.

Found this cute graphic with a google search and 

cut it out on my Silhouette Cameo.

The background paper is a digital paper file from Litte Scraps of Heaven.

This site is amazing she has a freebie each week and a lot of the time

the freebie will come with three digital papers that coordinate!

New Stamp Storage

I am so EXCITED!!!  I am upgrading my stamp storage!

I went with my son, to our local Deseret Industries (thrift store),

 and found this Gem, the best part is it was only $3.  

This is an old cassette tape storage rack.

It was originally a deep brown veneer, but my husband spray

painted it black for me and I LOVE It!

Here is what it looks like with my stamp pads in it!!!

Here is a link to my previous stamp storage.  I was kinda sad

to see it go!  A lot of time and effort was put into this baby!

Stamp Pad Storage- DIY

This is an awesome alternative if you can't 

find an old cassette tape storage rack.  

UNFROG-GETABLE

My son and I made this for his Preschool teacher.

His teacher was AMAZING and today 

was his graduation!

I used a Littlest Pet Shop Coloring page and 

my Silhouette to create this SVG file. 

The background embossing is from the Cuttlebug 

Once Upon a Princess Embossing Kit.

The twine is from Maya Road it is called Blackberry.

I just found this twine at Hobby Lobby and LOVE it!

It is 5.99 for 100 yards, use your 40% and that is a great deal!

The Sentiment is from My Pink Stamper-More Punny-licious!

I have a TON of stuff I need to post.  

Hopefully, I will get to it soon.

Life just seems to be getting crazier and crazier!

Birthday Minion!

This isn't the best picture, I kinda forgot about taking one until

we were RUSHING and the door and then

it was a quick one.

This cute Minion is from Pretty Paper,  Pretty Ribbons.

It was really quick and easy to put together!

Halloween Goodie Bags!!!

I am so excited my youngest is in preschool!

That means that I can make goodie bags for his class!

Yippee!  My older two children are in eighth grade

and a sophomore in high school, let's just

say they have been out of the goodie bag stage for a while!

Here is what I came up with for Halloween!

 I created all of these on my Silhouette using the print and cut feature.

All of the graphics are from Little Scraps of Heaven Creatures of the Night set.

I found the halloween toys at Michael's.

The paper is from S.E.I.

The border punch is from Martha Stewart.

The Happy Halloween sentiment is from the

My Pink Stamper Happiest Moments stamp set.

My little guy helped me assemble the goodie bags, he LOVED it, but it too

MUCH longer.  Oh well, that's half the fun right?

My favorite part was him trying every reason in the book

to let me give him one of the GOOP bottles now!

We had the exact count, no extras, but he was trying to convince me

that a certain child in his class didn't like goop and

when that didn't work that another child's mom didn't like

goop in her house. GIGGLE! 

What a kid!

If you like these goodie bags HERE are other's you might enjoy!

Buccanner Parrot!

I love this little guy!

He has a number of layers that I pop dotted with foam dots 

and they look amazing together!!!

Well, that is it for my Buccaneer projects-at least to date!

Enjoy!!!

Buccaneer Crab!

This little guy isn't as bright as the others, he was one of my first and I 

was having a little trouble getting my Imagine up and running again.

Does anyone else have a problem getting their Imagine to work after

leaving it sitting for a little while?

If so, I would love to hear how you fix that little problem!!!!

Buccaneer Fish

This one is a tough guy!

Sounds like it would make a great get well card for someone of the male species! 

(Just Kidding!!!!)
