2 Creative Chicks Challenge #12 "Make A Apron" Week 2 "T-Shirt Apron"

Hello!!!

I am so happy to drop in this evening and show you something different from what you are used to seeing from me. My friends Nana and Migdala over at 2 Creative Chicks is changing it up this month by having "Make an Apron" Challenge (no cards).  

Creativity comes in so many ways and as it was for Nana my very first love was sewing so here is my project!!!! It was  made for a little girl in Ontario and she absolutely loved it which of course made me ecstatic and relieved seeing this was the first Apron, Chef's hat and Oven Mitts I had ever made.

This is a must see!

Check out the video on Nana's blog over at My Crafting Channel to see how you can make an apron form a T-Shirt!!!! Seriously it is fast and such an awesome idea, great for messy BBQ'ers when you can make one in 5 min's!!!

I hope you join us!!!

Have a great evening and check back tomorrow for a surprise!

Mother's day Card using Cricut Cartridge "Cindy Loo"

Hello and thank you for visiting today!!!

 I want to show you a card I made for Mother's Day! It may seem far off  but not if you are a busy crafter eh? This card has a lot of dimension so I plan to sell it locally.

I used Cindy Loo Cricut Cartridge for every layer except the heart doily.. The images used are "Doily"on page 68, I used the Shadow for the bottom 2 layers, size 5" and  4 3/4", then used the "Doily" for the intricate cut @ size 4 1/2"

On the inside I tore the edges  on both corners opposite from each other and tucked cheese cloth underneath , then rolled the paper back using my fingers.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts , I love these colors together!... and the hat pin is from Christina over @ Flowers Ribbons and Pearls.  I also tucked in a few spellbinder leaves and curled the stems of the flowers.

I used a bow and feathers to finish it off which gives this card the soft look which makes it perfect for Mother's Day.

Speaking of Doily's,  last week I went to a restaurant in my home town and started talking crafts with the waitress, I happened to mention the doily's used under the Gravy dish , they were so small and pretty.. I braved it and asked is there any way I could get some when the next order goes in, then I said unless of course the manager wouldn't agree...little did I know she was the manager and she was more than happy to oblige me! I got a call this evening and it took me a whole 2 min's to get there. I paid 14.50 for them and have enough to last me a life time!  So be brave.

Have a AWWWE - SOME Day!!!
