Spring is in the Air ~ with Cyndy

I know some of you are still getting snow but here in the South, the flowers are starting to bloom!  Today I decided to share a spring project and with Easter right around the corner - it's very early this year - it's time to start thinking spring.

The egg is the pineapple out of the JGW Tropical Haven kit.  I hinged the top with one of the decorative panels.  Instead of gluing the tab over the top of the egg, I glued it to the lid. The paper on the egg is from Graphic 45, Once Upon a Spring Time.  This is one of my favorite stacks!

The bird is from the SDS Home Tweet Home kit.  He is a little box.  I shrunk mine down to 2" so he would fit in the egg.  I just love how he turned out.  Thank you for stopping by today.

St. Patrick's Day Treats ~ with Cyndy G.

Happy Friday everyone.  For those of you in the thick of all this bad weather and those that are lucky enough not to be, I have a very quick and easy project for you today.  It is the Leprechaun Handle Tote from JGW Leprechaun Chase kit.

I used papers from Doodle Bug.  They are so cute on these bags.  

I know the kids are going to love these

I changed out the Leprechaun for the pot of gold on my bag with the rainbow paper.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentines Day this Sunday.  Happy crafting!

Do What Inspires You,

Dino Mike

Happy Friday!  Today I am sharing the T-Rex 3D Figure from the JGW Dino Dig kit.  This was a special request from my youngest son for his birthday.  So I asked him "What color would you like your dinosaur?"  my son replied "Red and blue."  Really???  These aren't the first colors that come to mind when you think of a dinosaur but I like the finished project.

This file was so fun to make and not to complicated.

Just as you would expect T-Rex was a huge hit.

Thank you for stopping by :)

Mon Amour - with Cyndy G

Hello crafters today I am sharing some more Valentine projects with you.  I made the Rose Bouquet box card from JGW Flower Boxcard Bouquet.  I think these flower box cards are beautiful!

I also made the Flip top heart box from SVG Heart Shaped Box kit.  This little box goes together so quickly.  I think it would be the perfect project to do with your children.  You could make this a small size and make them for the classroom, they are that easy to make!

I used the beautiful Mon Amour paper from Graphic 45.  

I love the way I got the paper to line up on my box card!  

I really had fun making these projects.  I hope you will share some of your projects with us.

Sweet Treats ~ with Cyndy G

Happy New Year!  I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's Eve celebration whether it was an evening out with friends or a quiet night at home.  I did the latter.  I enjoy being at home with my family.  Today I am sharing with you a Valentine project.  I know we just celebrated Christmas but with putting all the decorations away and cleaning out the children's closet and drawers to make room for the new, Valentine's day will be here before you know it.

I used the JGW Sweetest Heart kit with the new Graphic 45 - Mon Amour Collection.

This is the sweetest bag and it is so quick and easy to put together.

These little boxes are so cute.  The perfect size for a little treat.

Thank you for stopping by today.  I hope you have enjoyed my project today.

My First Mini Album - Graphic 45 A Christmas Carol

I have been seeing a lot of handmade mini albums lately.  So I went on a search for some tutorials on how to make them and tried my hand at them for a Christmas present for my Mom and Sister.  After watching a couple of tutorials and enlisting a couple of my friends to make one too, I went to work.

Since they were going to be Christmas presents, I decided to use Graphic 45, A Christmas Carol.

I just love how they turned out.  I will definitely be making more of these!  I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day :)

Do what inspires you,
