LOTS of craftiness going on...

In the last few weeks I have done quite a few gifts and something small for myself. Just wanted to share some pics. Here were a few Father's Day and Mother's Day gifts. Didn't get a picture of my dad's :(

Next was a chip bowl for our new friends. The Women's Ministry at PBC threw Pastor Jim and Karyn a housewarming "Pounding" party. Josh and I chipped in on another gift but I really wanted to make something personalized for their new home. Cost: $10 for chip bowl

 

Made a little something for my new office space at work. My workstation got moved so I wanted to make something new to make my new desk feel homey. After taking the picture, I added a flowered patterned paper behind the glass to add a little more color.  Cost: $3 for clearance frame, $1 for patterned paper

Last but not least, a painting for my little friend Mary. Mary is such a sweetheart and will be moving to Michigan State at the beginning of 2012. She LOVES giraffes and I wanted her to have something to remember us by. I used my Create A Critter, Cricut cartridge to make a giraffe stencil then started painting layer by layer.  Cost: $5 for canvas, already had paint and brushes.

I hope to stay busy with some small crafts but that will have to wait til after Vacation Bible School. Hope you like these. Til next time...May God bless you and your family!
