Father's Day Shirt Cards

Thanks to Tamara Sandwisch, I was able to make 10 of these Father's Day cards. She posted the instructions, along with pictures, on our Close to my Heart bulletin boards. I even mailed them out early enough so they would arrive by today. I sent them to my dad, father-in-law, brothers-in-law, and some friends. This blue pattern was paper from a DCWV paper slab.
This green paper also came from a DCMV paper slab.
This was my favorite shirt! Its from AMM. The stamp is from CTMH's Say it in Style. Enjoy!!!

Kindergarten Memory Book

I wanted to make a special mini scrapbook for Vinny's teacher. So I wiped out a 9x9 Memory Showcase Album from Close to my Heart. I started at 9:00 p.m. and worked my little heart out until 1:00 a.m. I downloaded the pictures to Wal-mart's Photo Dept. and picked them up this morning.
Close up of Cover page. Look at the scallops! I love that fiskars Threading water punch. I was lucky enough to find it at Target in Las Vegas. I hear alot of people are having a hard time getting there hands on one.
I love ribbon!!!

Birthday Bucket!!!

I love to make these buckets for birthdays and baby showers. They are actually one gallon paint cans but I call them buckets. I made this for my neighbors daughter who turned 11. Rennen has such a bright personality so I wanted the colors to match how bright she is!!! The paper and some of the ribbon is from the dollar spot at Target. Some of the other supplies used were from my scrapbook room.

The is the top of the bucket. This flower was purchased at Pebbles in my Pocket, a scrapbook store in Vegas. The cap in the middle was covered in Liquid Glass [Close to my Heart] and sprinkled with Martha Stewart glitter. It came out so funky!!! Thanks for looking and have a Happy Monday!!!!!
