New Blog Name

Well, I gave it alot of thought and I decided to change the name of my blog and I finially did it tonight.  I just felt like the original name was to long and I have been trying to figure out a smaller name that would still fit me and what I like to do.  I hope that you like what I came up with.

365 Update

I just wanted to update everyone on my 365 challenge.  I do have projects to post that I did last week and this week as well, I just got behind on posting the pictures.  But I will be posting everything tomorrow and will get everything caught up for you to look at and enjoy.  I have a wide range of different projects to post for you, a few of my projects were giving me a little bit of a problem which I am working at redoing those so that they turn out the way that I would like for them to look.  So, until tomorrow.

Here is project number four that was made on Sunday.  This one is an 8x8 scrapbook frame and I also placed a piece of solid scrapbook paper behind the glass and cut the design of the bathtub out from the Cricut Cartiage Splish Splash from brown vinyl and placed it on the outside of the glass.  I have grouped this project and the project from yesterday together on the wall as you walk into my bathroom.

Project #3 of 365

I have gotten a little behind on posting my pictures of my projects this week, I promise that I will get caught back up on my posting.  But here is the project that I made on Saturday.  I got a 12x12 scrapbook frame at Hobby Lobby, placed a solid color scrapbook page behind the glass and cut the design out using the Splish Splash Cricut Cartiage from brown vinyl and placed it on top of the glass. 

Project #2 in My Project Challenge

Ok, I have now decided to name my little daily project challenge so that it would be a little easier to say or talk about.  I think that I will just call it  "My 365 Challenge" or "365" for short.

Here is what I made today, a bracelet.  The bracelet itself is from the brand
"the Jewelry shoppe" which I got at Hobby Lobby.  And I got scrapbook paper and cut out with the Round Shape Studio tool with the Round Bubble Caps made by Epiphany Crafts I also got at Hobby Lobby. 

 

Project #1 in My Challenges **AS WELL AS MY** 3-11-2012 Design Team Challenge from Queen of My Craft Room

Here is my first project that I made yesterday and as I said in last nights post that I would post day in my challenge to making a project each and every day.

And it so happens to be the project that I made for this weeks Design Team Challenge over at Queen of My Craft Room which was to make an Altered Spring Project. 

I bought a hanging butterfly made of slate at Michaels and I cut the flowers and the words "welcome spring" out with the Cricut.

I hope that you enjoy this project.

I have set a challenge for myself

I have been trying to think of a crafting challenge/ goal for myself for this new year of 2012, and yes I know that I am a little late in starting this, but like I said I have been trying to decide how I wanted to do this.  And hey, better late than never, right.

What I have decided to do is to challenge myself to make some kind of crafting project every single day.  I love all forms of crafting from scrapbook layouts, cards, altered projects, and so on and so on.  Not to mention that I have several Cricut cartiages that I have never used yet other than linking them to my Gypsy. 

I have had several ideas in my head of different projects that I want to do but just haven't gotten around to making them so I am hoping that with this challenge I will get all of the projects that I want to get done and and then some. 

I have made a few projects this year which I will do a recap post this weekend of the projects that I have made so far this year with pictures.

I did make a spring altered project today which I am very glad at how it turned out, it's not much but I love it.  I have not taken a picture of it yet but I will do that tomorrow and get it posted for you all to see.

Now, wish me luck on meeting my challenge of making some kind of project each and everyday from here to the end of the year.
