A Mother's Day Card

National Scrapbook Day - A Mother's Day Card

Mother's Day Card

I've been getting in on some challenges for National Scrapbook Day. I have never made an easel card and thought that would be a good challenge for me. I made my mom's Mother's Day card for a challenge. It was so much easier then I thought it would be.

Supplies:

Cricut Cartridge - Close To My Heart Artiste - Banners and Shape.

Close To My Heart - Chantilly Paper Collection.

The card fold up to be a 5x5 card.

I added buttons for embellishment.



Teapot Plaques and Decorative Holders

Well I had to go back to the drawing board. My daughter liked the teapot plaque so much she asked me if I could do another one. Only flip the Teapot the oposite direction. I said I could do this.
Then she asked if she could have my decorative holder. I said I could make another one.
I'm just happy she liked them so much. I do have to admit 2 teapots are better then one.
I had my GD help me with the 2nd one. She really enjoyed painting the teapot plaque.
Here is my daughter's house warming present. 2 teapot plaques and a decorative holder.
I think these 3 pieces look good on stands too.  So now it is settled this is my daughter's house warming present!!!  She is very grateful and appreciative that I made these for her.

 

 

These decorative holders I made for myself. LOL

I'm keeping them for decorative Craft room storage!!

I'm might bling up the 2 side holders more. I just have decided yet.

I know sometimes when I post things on my blog.

I see things in a different light and make some changes.

So don't be surprised if you see me posting more about these pieces. LOL

 

 

 

Enjoy!!!!!

Decorative Holder

I picked up this holder piece at Michaels. I decorated it up and this is what I got.
I'm going to use it for my crafty supplies. The beads, ribbon and lace I got at Walmart.
The holder and butterflies I got at Michaels.

Teapot Wall Plaque

I made my daughter a house warming present. She loves teapots. So I found this wood teapot at Michael's. I painted it with acrylic paint and sprayed it with a glaze. Then embellished it with a vine, flowers and butterflies.

Princess Wall Plaque

I made a Princess wall plaque for my Granddaughter's new room.
She will be moving into a new house soon!! This is my house warming present for her new room.
I hope she likes it!!!

 I painted the plaque with acrylic paint. I Mod Podged the pieces to the plaque.

It is 11-3/4 wide x 7-1/2 height.

It is a wood plaque that I painted pink. I got it at Michael's.

Cricut Cartridges Used: Once Upon a Princess - for the princess cut. Cut Size 1-1/2".

I used Hello Kitty Font for her name. Cut at 1"

The butterflies are from Ek Success small punches.

The Disney figures are chipboard I used from a Disney scrapbook kit.
