July "Beach" swaps


Hi friends! I just wanted to take a minute and share some of the things I made this month for swaps at "the beach"! It was my first time for the ATC and tag swap and my second month for the flower swap. I had a blast making all three of these. Hope my team partners enjoy them ! I am so looking forward to seeing what everyone else came up with!!


Until next time, Becky :)

TWS Flower Swap

These are the flowers that I came up with for the June (yellow) flower swap at “the beach”.  I was going for a shabby chic look.  I think I have the shabby part down pretty good! LOL. They are kind of different but I am really happy with the way they turned out!

They are made of cardboard, crepe paper, fabric, ribbon and pearls. (A stick pin too!)

Welcome Home…again!

Ok friends, I know, I know, how many of these little houses are we going to have to look at???  Well. a friend asked me to make one for a bridal shower gift.  The bride and groom are saving for a house and the  girls are going to all give them money for  the shower and put it in this little house.  Nice idea huh?  A little tag on the top says  “for your Love Nest”.  I have been seeing all of these darling little paper flowers on line but have not been able to find them to purchase so…I made these little flowers myself.   They turned out so sweet I think I’m gonna be addicted to making them.

Happy Easter

 

Happy Easter everyone!  Don’t ya just love this beautiful weather we are having this weekend.  I wanted to share one of  the four little Easter baskets that I made for my sweet grand daughters!  This one is for our Meagan who is 9 this year.  When did that happen?  These were fun to make, hope they love them!  I think they will because they are crafty girls who love paper as much as their mamaw!

Baby shower

Just stopping in to share  a  picture of the first diaper cake that I have made. It's for a friend’s new grand baby.  Can you guess the baby is a girl?  I made the tiny paper shoes  for party favors.  I think they turned out adorable.  We will fill them with mints in tissue paper or maybe some netting.  Have not decided on that yet.  Hope the guests enjoy them as much as I do!!

Until next time.   Becky

P.S.  Sorry about the picture quality.  I would love to show more views of my things but I can’t figure out how to do more than one picture for each post!!!

Shaker Box

Hello again.  Is everyone sick of snow yet?  I know I have had more than enough.  I’m soooo glad to have been off from work the past two day’s and didn’t have to be out on the roads!  I would much rather stay in and play with paper! haha

I have a little something to share with you again today.  I have always loved shaker boxes but never would have thought to make one myself!  This little cutie is made of cardstock. This was my first attempt so it may be a little rough around the edges (lol).  Next time I will make the set of three and share them with you all and they will maybe be a little cleaner.

Until next time…

Good morning friend’s!  I finally have something to share with you!  I made these darling little cottages for some sweet friend’s as a little Valentine goodie!   I think they loved them, it made them smile anyway and how great is that?!!  Can’t you just think of a dozen ideas to use this little cottage for?

Until next time… Becky

Hi friends, I think I might get the hang of this blog stuff after all. I created my first blog on New Year's Eve and it was just sooo ugly and plain I didn't even want to look at it! So, I'm gonna try again.

I love checking out blogs on papercrafting and have gotten ton's of inspiration from all of these ladies. My resolution for 2010 is to take some of this inspiration and do something with it for myself. Hopefully I can share some stuff myself. I need to stop procrastinating and JUST DO IT!!! Later....
