Teacher Thank You Gifts

I wanted to give my sons' teachers a gift to say "Thank You" before they broke for summer vacation. My son goes to a special class (because he is autistic) that holds about 12 students. He has 3 teachers and each of them are awesome.


I made them a card, matching gift bag, a bag of candy, and a little journal for each of them. 


I think they will get the point after looking at the inside of the card.  LOL


Thank you to ALL teachers for doing what you do!!!!!!!!!!

I am soooooo proud of my $8.00 find at a yard sale this past weekend. This star will be PERFECT in my living room of my new house. I have high ceilings in my living room and I think it will be perfect.

Happy Mothers Day MOM

This is my moms Mother's Day gift. I wrapped it with pink kraft paper...wrapped my black bling ribbon around it....stamped "Fabulous" on it and covered that with black stickles.



The card is a clutch purse card....I added bling to the paper...punched out a few butterflies, and added a handle with some ribers.

Happy Mother's Day to all of Yall!

Happy Mother's Day To ME

I thought I would do a little shopping at the craft store for ME! I got a new bigger trimmer, black ribbon with bling on it, and the dollar store has a selection of cupcake items....snagged a journal.



I guess SOMETIMES bigger is better. I have been looking for this trimmer for about 6 months now. Michaels had it on sale for $17.00 regular $29.99....SOOOO I snagged it up!


I wanted this one for the wire guide line. How cool huh. AND it locks in place too...which is good cause I have a 4 year old with wondering little hands....ALL THE TIME! AND it goes up to 14 inches....thank goodness.


HAPPY MOTHERS DAY YALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Simple Mothers Day Card

I made this card to put at the front desk of my work. Very simple, very clean, but to the point.


I hand made the flower and added glimmer mist to it. Two colors....a light pink and of course clear to add EXTRA glimmer.

Play'n with water colors

Just a little something I have been working on.



I wanted to use my water color paper (5x7) and pencils.....I have not touched them in a while. SO....since it was Easter weekend I decided to make a little Easter frame for one of the MANY pictures I took of my son. (and I mean MANY LOL )

Super easy to do and you can creat it the way you want it.
