TGF Heart Journaling--week 2

Image
By
Hi!  So it's week 2 of TGF's Heart Journaling.  The assignment is Sandy Sunshine and the tip this week is to use a bit of texture.  Again my daughter played along but we didn't get to work on them together since we were busy this past weekend. 

My daughter's layout.  She used pastels and stamped some TGF images and colored them in with pastels too.  She added some glittery stickers and glued some beads.  I love her ocean scene!  So pretty!  I really think her perspective is so interesting.  She created this scene as if you are in the water looking towards the sand.  I think most people when creating a beach scene do it the other way--on the beach looking towards the water.

My layout for week 2.  I used pastels too and I just wanted to create a huge sun.  I used some stamps and also washi tape for the sun rays.  I glued a ton of mini beads to the center of the sun.  Then I stuck on these glittery border stickers that Cheryl had given me.  Thanks!  And that was it.

Thanks for reading!

Your daughter's journal "scene" is awesome - just like her momma's - the talent must run in the family!

Hello!  Today I'll be sharing the last amigurumi I made during my crochet frenzy.  I haven't been crocheting much recently except for this one little project I'm kind of procrastinating with.  I really do love this last one because I think it came out really cute. This is a little crocheted robot designed by Bubblegum Belles .  You can find the pattern HERE .  Sometimes I purchase the patterns especially if they are really cute.  But a lot of designers do list their patterns for free too on their blogs so I always check to see if they have a blog or not.  It's also important to read their pattern listing too if you are purchasing to see whether they are for personal use or also for commercial use.  Here is a different view of him.  Happy that he is able to sit on his bottom.  I actually cut out 2 felt hearts using a heart die, blanket stitched them together, and then hot glued the heart to the robot.  I tried stitching one h...

Snowman gift card holder

By
Hi!  I was planning to post this last night but I was just too tired to write or think of complete sentences.  It's been a busy week with the boys on Fall break and still trying to finish up a bunch of crafts.  I have been trying to make some crocheted crafts to put in my Etsy shop and finally I'm done with one.  It's a crocheted snowman that can hold a gift card or anything actually that is small enough to fit in the pouch.  The pattern is designed by ChiWei Ranck of One Dog Woof and can be found HERE . Here's the little snowman with his arms folded over in the front to look like he is hugging the card.  I added this fun card that I stamped.  You can definitely add in a gift card too behind this card. The gift card reaches under his nose. This is how the little opening of the pouch looks.  I hope I can make more of these little guys.  These would be so cute for teachers and I think it would be easy to put a little wire throug...
