First aid kit




Good morning all


I was in a crafty mood last night and I have all kinds of things that I wanted to alter .


This is a small tin some people call them lunch boxes , I thought it would be cute as a First aid kit.


I am gonna put some band aids , salves all the things you would find in a first aid kit.


I think it turned out cute!


I Used


Cricut everyday paper dolls cart for the Nurse and Doctor bag


Cricut Plantin Schoolbook cart for the addition sign that I used as a medic symbol

Cricut cart Indie art for the band aids cut @ 2 ins
Nurse was cut @ 3ins


Computer font ( first aid kit )


And I thought the hugs and kisses ribbon was perfect for it......


It was really easy to do and came together rather quickly.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great day

SOUS Challenge




Good Friday to you all


I have got all kinds of great news for you to ....


First we were spared the bulk of this last storm we had some rain and ice for a little while so that cut the amount way down , we only got 2 or 3 inches more...Ohhh THANK YOU LORD !


Next I am soooooo excited I was asked to be the very FIRST GUEST DESIGNER


for Stuck on you Sketches I have been a Big fan from the very beginning.

Ladies that I am glad to call my FRIENDS....Nanne, Sandy,Leah and Sandi congrats Ladies on such a great Sketch challenge site...With that said if you haven't checked them out and played along why don't you do that......you will be inspired!


This week they have a great sketch from Liz Qualman and with a bit of a twist they have asked that you use red or pink on your project.


The page I did was of my Wedding the pic is not that great being it came from an old Polaroid camera you know way back in 1976 the instant cameras...so the quality isn't that great...but I only had a couple pics!


I had fun with this sketch....

There is so much detail on here that's hard to see, gonna try to tell you.
I used
K&Company paper ...the colors are not showing up very well.
Cricut carts ... Calligraphy & plantin school for the title and hearts, I cut all the letters out about 5 times to make them look like chip board and used pink flock for become /heat embossed hearts and one with red glitter.
2 different size paper lace hearts
Cuttle bug embossing folder I embossed the 3 hearts
A Nestie butterfly added glitter and pink flock to it.
Glitter heart to mark the day on the calendar
cut circles for the wedding rings and attached them to the ribbon with a safety pin.

Celebrate Spring


Hi all

This is my first attempt at making a recessed window card.

I found the tutorial on splitcoast stampers... but I tweaked it a little, I made a template for mine that was easier for me...

I made the card

inked it

Prima flower

wooden fence

Spellbinders nestie

celebrate spring stamp

buttons

lace


flower stamp colored it then added pink flock and cut it out

sm bow


I had planned on putting a ribbon on one side of the card so I cut the opening off to one side ...but then I changed my mind and added the lace around the window so now it looks off center...


oh well ....other than that I think it turned out pretty good for my first time....
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day
