Once upon a time a princess was born~ Shadowbox

Graduation Letters

I received a request from my co-worker to decorate 4 wood letters for her graduation party this weekend.  I wasn’t sure where to even start because I have never worked with wood letters before.  I found the letters at Michaels for 1.99 and decided to use glitter paint to make the letters really pop!  I made the letters with my handy Cricut machine and used graduation embellishments.  For the diploma, I simply rolled up a piece of paper and did the hat by freehand.  I used a bookmark for the tassel.  Im very happy with the turn out, I think they came out fabulous for a first timer!

Wishing everyone a fantastic week!
Congrats Tamara!

Who Knew? A Spaghetti Jar can look so pretty :)

I created this luminary candle jar from an empty spaghetti jar. First, I cut out the letters using cricut vinyl material (Planting Schoolbook cartridge) and placed letters on jar.  Second, I spray painted the jar and after the jar was fully dried; I started to peel the letters off and embellished it with Jute and a fabric flower.  I placed a tea-light and the word "dream" glows at night.  

Have a fabulous weekend!

Welcome to the world sweet baby boy~ ShadowBox

First, I just want to say I love these shadowboxes!  You can create any scrapbook page theme you want and insert it into this box and it gives it a whole new effect.  This shadowbox is 11" x 14" and you can find it at your local craft store.  These boxes also make great gifts for baby showers and weddings, nothing is more special than a handmade gift.  A friend of mine requested this shadowbox to be made for her nephew; in a lion themed scrapbook page.  Hope you use this as an inspiration for your own shadowbox creation.  Have a Blessed Wednesday!

Butterfly Mobile

Live Your Beautiful Life~
I've been wanting to make this project for a long time now, I just could not find the time to create it!  I have to remind myself sometimes that it's important to make time to do things that make you happy.  It is so easy to forget about yourself in the everday shuffle called life.   How do you make time, to do the things that make you happy?  You can easily turn this project into your very own.  You can add your personal touch to your mobile by personalizing it for a nursery by using alphabet letters, pictures or a matching theme from the nursery.  This project can also be made for a teenagers room or for any other occasion.  The possibilities are endless.

In this blog I will share with you scrapbooking pages, crafts and home decor and much more.  I have added pictures of previous projects to give you an idea of what to expect on my blog.  Have a beautiful and blessed day!
