Personalized Vinyl Flags

 Two flags I made using vinyl.  One is for ME and the other for my daughter!  They are fun to do!!  :) 

Vinyled bicycling duffel bag.

 Here is our duffel bag that I vinyled for our bicycling trip from Pittsburgh to Washington, DC.  This has been a dream of ours (husband and I) for many years.  It just worked out that we can do it this year and off we go in June!!  We are so excited and I'll be posted pictures of our trip for sure!! 

Honeycomb Birthday Card

 A birthday card I made at a recent make and take.  I really like how the 'random' inking looks.  :) 

Mother's Day Card

This is the Mother's Day card I made for my mother this year.  I embossed the base of the card then added lace, ribbon, pearls, and lavender roses. 

Adult treasure hunt

Made this Easter bucket I designed  for my son and his girlfriend. She loves red so I choose a red Easter bucket.  They had to find the Easter basket by following a treasure hunt.  The clues were placed at spots where they had to drive to find.  They had to search picnic grounds and climb towers and so much more.   I used to do this for my students and my own children when they were little and they loved doing them.

 Loaded with treats including favorite candies, wines, gift card, things for their upcoming trip.

 DATE NIGHT:    Jelly Belly Flavored Popcorn beans with a movie gift card.

 CELEBRATE:  Their bottle of favor wine alone with Jelly Belly Cocktail Classics Beans

 Looking for the first clue :  It was raining when they left. 

First clue given a supper.

Camp Harmony Spring Crop

 I attended a weekend spring crop at Camp Harmony with a group of great friends including my two sisters in law!  We had the best time and I got one entire album completed.  I wasn't sure if it was going to happen but I worked up to the last minute.  It turned out great.  I'll be posted that album at a later time.  I was asked to bring it back for the fall weekend crop.  I did several make and takes which are posted below.  I also won a prize along with my two sisters in law.  I look forward to these weekends because I get to see and craft with my friends and meet up with old friends.    The picture above is me in a "Craft" hat that we wore when we won!!  :) 

 This is my "messy creative" corner!

 My sister in law, Patty, wearing "the hat"!

 Make and Takes:   The first is a box made from 16 pieces of 6 x 6 double sided paper which we folded.  What amazed me is how it goes together without any adhesive.  I love how it turned out. 

 This was a lay out that we did.  We also did a card which I failed to take a picture of.  :(

60th birthday card

This is a birthday card I did for my sister.  Her husband wanted to shower her with cards on her 59th birthday to surprise her instead of next year when she turned 60 when she would be expecting it.   When he ask us to send cards, I knew what I wanted to do.  Since she is actually only 59 so that is why the inside of the card is like that.  She was showered with 35 cards!  Happy Birthday, Sis!

Coat Rack with lettering

I painted the board black and then did a white wash over it.  Then distressed it.  the letters are painted on, not vinyl.  Then added 5 knobs that I found over at Hobby Lobby. This is hung right at our door so we have a place to hang our coats.

vinyl letters

I didn't paint this.  I just added the name in vinyl.
