fabric flowers.


I made these fabric flowers from burlap, flannel, and ribbon.  It was very easy to do.  Just twist and run and wrap the fabric or ribbon in a circle.  Use hot glue to glue it down every so often.  I added the orange ribbon one to the gift back for a wedding whose colors included orange.





Candy apple tags for a wedding

Our nephew got married in Oct.  My sister made them candy apples and I made the tags for them.  I inked them with three different inks front and back.  That took a while but the bride really REALLy appreciated them.   By the way, the apples were so DELICIOUS!!










Fall place cards

My nephew asked me to make some placecards for his fall wedding.  Here they are:  I used 8 different leaves.  They were very pleased to how they turned out.

Wedding cards using ribbon

This was the year for weddings.  I had four myself and other family members and friends had more.  I made a lot of wedding cards upon request and for my own personal use.  Here are my cards and matching envelopes.










Split L personalized wedding tile

 A wedding tile made upon request.  Currently working on another "L" wedding tile.  They make wonderful wedding or shower gifts.



Butterflies in a Mason jar Card

Birthday card made on request.  I recently made a lady a birthday card and then when her niece's birthday was coming up, she asked me to make a similar card for her.  I also made matching envelopes, too.







Wedding reserve sign, etc.

For an upcoming wedding, I was asked to make some signs and decorate a birdcage for cards.  I made the flowers to match the wedding. Hoping bride will be pleased.

Here are my Christmas cards for 2013.   I started them in July but had other projects to get completed.  I finally got them finished.  :)









Craft room makeover

Yesterday I spent the day helping my sister in law reorganize her craft room.  We had to "build" some furniture, too.  It was so much fun getting her organized.  We did the majority of it  but she still needs to go through draws and organize that stuff.

Here are the before pictures:

Personalized Photo Necklace

This is a necklace I made for a friend.  I learned how to do it at the CK Convention that I attended recently.  I think it is cute.
