Vinyl on Bathtub - Get Naked

Just a cute idea that I added to my bathtub/shower unit.

Fall Cloth Scarecrow Doll

I made this scarecrow doll using a Simplicity pattern. I love scarecrows and she turned out so cute.

Make It Take It at Fall Crop

At our recent Crop Retreat held at Camp Harmony I participated in three Make It Take It. I did two LO pages and a Christmas card.
Here is the favor they gave us along with a cup which I LOVE LOVE it. Even though this blog is basically about things that I have made, I wanted to share what was made for me which is adorable.

Turkey Bulletin Boards for Novemeber

This year my bulletin boards are both centered around the turkey. There is no real reason why both have turkeys but it just happened that way. LOL Must be hungry for turkey.

Twisty Yarn Knitted Scarf from Pattons Pirouette Shimmer Yarn

Due to The Storm of Sandy we had 1 1/2 snow days, I decided to order some yarn to knit one of those awesome twisty scarves. I ordered it late Tuesday afternoon and received it Thursday morning. You talk about awesome customer service and FAST shipping. Then that night after working on my hubby's birthday gift I decided to beginning knitting about 9:30 PM. I finished the scarf around 11:00 PM. It is a Christmas gift for a dear friend of mine.

Spin Class Etched wine glasses and thank you card

My spin class instructor is awesome even though he works us hard, (which is what we need and love). I simply love his class. His wife is awesome, too. Its nice to go to class and have such upbeat friends to enjoy it with. Thanks again for an awesome class, Dave and Lisa!! I etched them wine glasses with the words: Spin Master Dave and a bike. His wife I etched: Spinnette Lisa with a bike too. The best part is they loved them!! Another member of the class provided them with the wine. The pictures don't show how great they turned out. Its hard to take a picture of the etching. I put paper inside them to help but even then it doesn't show the beauty.

Calla Lily Sympathy Cards

Two of my co-workers are going through some difficulty times right now. One is dealing with the death of her brother at the young age of 57 and the other one the death of his beloved wife with two young children to deal with. I made these cards for them. I used my blossom punch from SU and an embossing folder. Some inks from SU and a ribbon I had in my stash.

Scrapbooking T-shirt using fabric ink

I'm heading off to a weekend crop in Nov. and decided to make a t-shirt to wear. I used my silhouette cameo to cut out the sun and letters. I applied the fabric ink and the jewels. "Sunny with a chance of scrapbooking" is such a cute saying. Love it. In fact my sister-in-law is going to make a t-shirt to wear, too. Stay tuned for her creation.

"Canning Jar "Thinking of You"Cards

I have three dear friends who are facing some difficult times. One just had surgery, one was hospital for a very serious illness, and the third one is dealing with a death in the family. I made them all similiar cards using my new "jar" stamp. I stamped it on clear plastic sheets and cut them out. Added twine around the top of the jar, embossed the card and added the sentiments.
