Glue Arts + Epiphany Crafts

Epiphany Crafts and Glue Arts have teamed up! The design teams are whipping up some goodies to show off both company's awesome products!! Wanna see my first project?!

I used LOTS of EC circles here!!! I used both round shapes! I even layered the smaller ones on top of the larger ones a few times! I used the super strong Glue Arts square adhesive for these...and they aren't going anywhere!!!



Here is another layered EC circle set! And I used the 3D adhesive from Glue Arts to pop the title block up a bit


And here is the entire layout!!!!! For the paper I used the Glue Arts Glue Glider Pro. I may have found my new go to adhesive! That thing rocks!!!!!!!!!!

I will have more to share soon!!! Thanks for stopping by!

Car Seat Cover #2

Remember the car seat cover I made for Quinn? Well, not long after I posted it, I had a request to make one for another sweet little baby I know! So here it is!!!! You should get it today (you know who you are!!) Hope sweet little Miss O loves being snuggly warm in it!!!

January Sew Along!!

I decided to join Kymy at Everything Your Mama Made & More for a 12 month sew along! I am hoping it will prompt me to try new things and make sure to get some sewing done monthly!!

For January we were to sew something for ourselves. Now, the Hello Kitty stuff isn't mine! I started with the green & teal one below - thought it would be cute on a headband! They are fun and easy so I kept going! The Hello Kitty & K-State ones are for other projects I will share shortly!!

Epiphany Crafts!

Just wanna quickly share two of the layouts I sent off to CHA for the Epiphany Crafts booth! The photos were taken in haste before I sent them on their way so the quality isn't the best. ;) Hopefully when I get them back, I can rephotograph them!

This one was about Quinn's baby shower!!!


And this one is of Papa Lou visiting K's soccer practice!!!

I have a sewing project I hope to share soon! So stay tuned!

More ChA SNEAKS!!!!

Time for a few more sneaks from Epiphany Crafts!

Starting today, the madness of new scrapbook releases will begin! This year's Winter CHA show is in Cali and goes from the 29th of January to the 2nd of February.

I haven't been able to attend since then, but my work is still displayed. :) This year, I am still creating for Epiphany Crafts! If you are at CHA, you *must* check out their booth - it will be stuffed with goodness! I wanted to share some sneaks of Epiphany's great products and what you will see in their booth!

This is a snippet of my layout "A Big Fan." This felt flower is a new product of theirs and I paired it with their circle shape.

This is from the same layout. I used the cirlces again but these funky holders are a new product!!!

I will be back with more sneaks soon!!! Let the excitement begin!

Car Seat Cover!

Winter is in full force here in the Midwest! So I thought I would share a sewing creation of mine that has been getting lots of use!

I saw the tutorial on Cluck, Cluck Sew HERE and knew I wanted to try it! I just opted for warmer fabrics!

Holiday Blog Hop!!

Welcome to the Epiphany Crafts Design Team Holiday Ornament Blog Hop 2010!!

Our lovely Design Team has created some wonderful holiday projects, brimming with inspiration and of course, Epiphany Crafts epoxies, buttons, and tools! Visit each Design Team members blog to see what inspiring projects they have to share. Leave a comment on each blog. When you reach the last blog, you'll receive the final instructions on how to enter to win a fabulous prize pack filled with Epiphany Crafts goodies, straight from Santa!!

I started with an unfinished piece of wood from our local craft store. But you can use anything as your "backdrop"

We painted the entire thing light blue.

Once it dried, Kennedy covered her fingers in white paint and pressed them onto the wood.

Once that dried, we added snowmen faces, scarves and hats! We had a glittery chipboard star to add to the sky and topped it with an Epiphany Crafts circle embellishment!

Finally we attached some ribbon to hand our ornament from the tree!

SUPER EASY!!!!! I am always on the lookout for kid friendly crafts that aren't over-the-top or too difficult and this one fit the bill!

Leave a comment here on my blog for your chance to win some yummy My Little Shoebox goodies!!!!!

1st Day of Kindergarten

It is so hard to believe I already have a kindergartener! Kennedy was totally ready to go and is loving every minute of it!!

This layout is about her VERY first day of K! I must say I think she is the cutest gal!!!

I just love Echo Park papers....yum! They are quickly becoming a new favorite of mine! I also used the Epiphany Crafts button maker for the buttons on the edge of the photos and in front of the birds.

How fun are those birds?? And I LOVE the glitter alphas by Thickers!!!!


I hope to have some projects including Quinn soon!!!
Thanks for looking! Be Blessed!

10-10-10

Yup! Today is 10-10-10! How fun is that?!

At Epiphany Crafts, we have decided to "celebrate" with a TOP 10 layout!!!!
I used some yummy Echo Park papers and the Flower 20 Epiphany crafts tool!!!

It was so cute to hear what Kennedy considers the Top 10 things about Kindergarten! Remember, you can click on the image to see it larger and read the journaling!
Thanks for looking! Be Blessed!!!

New 'Do

Hard to believe, but it is September and school is back in full swing! CrAzY how time flies!

Kennedy started Kindergarten and loves every minute of it! :) The day before school started I took her to get her hair cut. I told her she could decide how much she wanted cut. Instead of a trim like we always do, she decided she wanted it VERY short! So we went with it and we all love it! Kennedy appreciates that it is much easier to brush! I think she looks soooo much more grown up!!!

So, on this layout celebrating her New 'Do, I used lots of Echo Park paper and my Epiphany Crafts circle tool! It was rather hard to photograph so I hope you can see it!

And here is a close up of the journaling and fun EC circles!

Thanks for stopping by for a peek today!
Be blessed!

Pumpkin Patch Mini Album

Today I am sharing a fun little mini album perfect for fall! I went with Kennedy's preschool class last fall on their field trip to the pumpkin patch. Of course I took way too many photos! So I decided to make a mini album to fit them in!!!


I used lots of Making Memories papers and tons of other goodies from my stash! I also used the epiphany crafts tool - you will get to see the close ups of them!!!




Remember you can always click on a photo to see it enlarged!











Hope you enjoyed!!!!!! Have a blessed day!
