Proud Mama Moment!

Last week my daughter was in her 3rd grade Invention Fair. After months of planning and making her project, she won! She and 3 other 3rd graders were choosen and received the Judges Award! Her creation is the AGDCS... American Girl Doll Clothes Sorter. It was a very happy moment when her name was called when she won. She worked hard on designing and making her project. I helped with the sewing and cutting. She even made the pink bias tape with a burn on her arm from the iron. She learned a lot from this project.

Have a wonderful weekend! ;)

Christmas Ornament

Hello! Today I'm focusing on Iris Folding. Lots of people don't know what Iris Folding is. Iris folding can be very easy if you have a rubber stamp that has it mostly done for you. Have you checked the iris folding stamps at Stamp N Plus Scrap N? You can find this one, F-IR215, here.
Have a question, just ask, I like to help! Have a great day!

Happy Easter!

Hello! Happy Easter! I haven't posted in a whole week. I have been busy working with my daughter on her invention project for school. She is making a American Girl Doll accessories-clothes holder. Yesterday we made the bias tape for it. We made 26 1/2 yards of bias tape. Making that tape sure brings back memories from when I made it in high school. Back in my high school days, we cut our fabric with scissors, now we have awesome rotary cutters and a mat. Also folding bias tape is so easy now, there is a new tool that you put the fabric in and pull and iron.
Last month at Ladies Aide at church, I was asked to make up card kits for the ladies to make cards for the Shut-inns. Here is one of the cards we made. The stamp set is Spring Florals from Gina K Designs. When I bought this stamp set, I got a card kit with it, which was designed by Jessica Fick. I used Jessica Fick's card kit ideas to make my own, with a little different paper and colors but almost the same. Most of my colors are Stampin Up. The textured paper is made with the Cuttlebug Textile Emboss Folder. The ladies at church were very impressed with making this card. Some of the ladies have never made a homemade card before. The die cut shape is Spellbinders Labels Four.
Have a GREAT day!
