Busy Busy, BUSY! CHECK IT OUT !!!

Yep! I have been a very busy girl the past few days. I have a lot to post - here are just a few..let me know what you think :)





I love these two Dino themed journal boxes. They were pretty simple to make - it did take a bit of time to hand burn the edges of the boxes for that oh, so old look, but it was worth it. Can't wait to get these guys on some pages!



My 12 year old is a total baseball junkie so I made this PP for one of the many, many baseball themed pages I have to make for his book. The arms were a challenge to cut, otherwise this guy was simple to do.



All of my boys love soccer so I made multiple of this PP. The face was the most difficult part of this one. My drawing skills need a lot of work and it took me at least a dozen tries before I had the face down the way I wanted it.

Time, Pain and Scrapping.....

Wow! Time is really flying this month! I have really wanting to get back to posting here at least one time a week but my pain has been pretty bad and is preventing me from doing a lot of things right now. I am hoping that the weather will get a bit more mild soon and that will help ease some of the pain. I have been trying to scrap when time and pain permit. I have managed to finish a few smaller paper piecing projects, and have started a few more today.

Let me know what you all think of these little guys...yes, I am on a Disney kick right now. I think the Sleepy and Grumpy journal boxes will look really cute with some baby pics I have to scrap. Boy, were those PP's hard to do, though - lots of little pieces....





Sleepy and Grumpy Journal Boxes - I hand cut all the pieces instead of using the Cricut because I needed them to be small. I think they turned out okay, but it took me forever to cut the tiny pieces.





I love this Winnie the Pooh shaker Box. I tried to do a little something different from the usual rectangle or square I normally do when I make shakers.
This is a journal Box. I plan on journaling on the honey jar. I also made Pooh into a card that can be pulled out of the jar. It did not turn out like I had it figured in my head, but it is kind of cute.



This was an idea my youngest had. He suggested I make Pooh's stomach a shaker box. It was a bit of a challenge but I like the way it turned out in the end.

Been TOOOO Long....

I have been unable to update my blog in several weeks, either time or pain was in my way. Now that the holidays are over, and things are slowing down at least a little bit, I will get back to posting regularly. Hopefully, I will have quite a bit to share in the next few weeks. Until then, here is some older stuff I have completed. These 6x6 pages were made for a Disney Book Swap I joined last year. It took me forever to make twenty for each character, but I got some really awesome pages back in return.











Keep checking back for new postings!
