Rosette Wreath

I'm very excited to show the project that I made tonight!  I have had this idea for awhile and wanted to do it for Christmas and well life just got to busy.  So tonight I decided that I was just going to do it.  Faith was watching YouTube on how to make things on her Fun Loom and Hunter and Daddy was watching movies.  
I used my Scalloped Stitched Rosette Dies from My Creative Time  to make all of my Rosettes and then I also used the Build a Banner and the Small and Medium Bow Dies from MCT too.  I just love how cute it turned out!!  Now I'm wishing that I would have had a Christmas one well maybe next year.  
Hope you enjoyed my Valentine's Day Wreath!!

Chrismtas Gifts

The last few weeks I have been very busy making and finishing up my Christmas gifts.  I have a few more to make but I wanted to share a few of the ones that I have finished up.  

The first one that I made was this super cute little calendars!  I used the all MCT Dies to create it!!  
The golf one is for my Daughter teacher.  I thought the bows and flowers was a little to much for her male teacher :)  He loves golf so I picked up some cute stickers at Micheal's the other day.

The next gift I made was for the office staff, library and the rest of my son's teacher he has for his extra classes.  I just love the Treat Slider box from MCT.  Plus who doesn't need a little chocolate at the end of the day.   This is just a few of them I made.  I think that I made over 20 or them.  I can fold them in my sleep now.

I reused my pineapple cans we had from Thanksgiving and put brownie pops in the cans.  I then took the new MCT border dies to the edges of my paper around the cans and made some cute little tags.


The last gift I have to show today is the cute little frame.  I did get a chance to put a picture in but it is just cute!!  I made this for our Cook at school and good friend for her husband.  He plays Santa at our school Breakfast with Santa each year.  
I hope you enjoyed all my gifts!
In case that I don't get any post made again before Christmas I hope you all have a great one and a Happy New Year!!

Hello Everyone!
It's Angela this week with some inspiration for you all!!
It seems more like Christmas here instead of Thanksgiving week. It has been so much colder than normal for this time of the year. I didn't get much crafting in this week for myself. I did alot of cleaning instead and had appointments for the kids. I had teacher conferences and then cleaned up the house cause Grandma and PawPaw flew in last night. So the kids have been super excited all week. I'm very excited too to have them here for the week. They have been coming out for the last 5 years for Thanksgiving and it so nice to have them here.
Well for my inspiration this week I decide to work ahead for the kids scrapbooks. I made a journal tag for the pictures that we will be taking this morning. The kids look forward to making pancakes for breakfast every year with Grandma.
 
I used Recipe Card Starters and Recipe Completer Mini Stamp Set to make my cute little journal box. Now I just need to print off my pictures and do a little more stamping and I will have a great page!!
I hope you enjoyed my creation for this week.
Have a great week and be sure to stop back by next week to see what AJ has to share!

Welcome and Hello Fall

I had time this weekend to get alot of crafting done.  I also finished up some projects that I started but never took the time to put those finishing touches on them.  

I visit made a cute little magnet that says Hello Fall and had so much fun making it that I painted a sigh I had in my paint bin.  Then decided to make a Welcome Fall sign.  I used some the new things that I have gotten over the last few months from My Creative Time.  I love using their dies and stamps!  
Here is a picture of them both together!
Challenges:  MCT Designer Challenge

Lost My Mate

My friend gave me this idea the other day after my daughter and I had a morning over lost socks.  Faith got out of the habit over the last few month of not wearing 2 socks with her broken leg  So she would bring a pair down wear one and stuff the other one well I have no clue where!   Well now she needs a pair to wear and she was down to a total of 3 pair not that they matched but that's in style :)  I went and bought her 9 new pair the other day and started my project!
I wanted to hang this in my laundry room but none one every see it so we decide to hang in the bathroom downstairs.  We have to walk through the bathroom to go in the laundry room.  

I covered my clothes pins with washi tape and to hang the sign up I glue 2 of the tabs from soda cans to the back of it.  

Looks like we have some missing socks to find at our house!
 

Give Thanks Treat Slider

Last night I finally remember to pick up some Hershey's Nuggets when I ran into the store.  I have been wanting to for weeks to make a Treat Slider with Hershey bars in it but keep forgetting to pick them up.  I really like how it turned out and just love love the Treat Slider Box Die from MCT!!
 Here is a picture of my little candy bars all wrapped up. I love this paper I found at Tuesday Morning back this summer! I'm entering this in the Thanksgiving Designer Challenge at MCT.

Hello Everyone!
It's Angela this week with some inspiration for you all!!
This weekend I was able to do some crafting along with finishing up cleaning our garage. The kids were very excited to go watch our local soccer team play a preseason game and see their favorite players!
This week I made some cute little mini cards. A few weeks ago I started my new job so I sub at the different schools in the kitchen. When I went to sub on Friday I meet this very nice lady and while we working she was telling me how her granddaughters are moving this weekend. So I thought when I was driving home that it would be nice to make her something little and get it to her next week. So I thought it would be nice to make her some note cards to write little message to her granddaughters when she sends them carry packages.

I made 8 cards like the 3 above and then used a piece of raffia to tie them all together for her. I used 2 different MFP stamp sets to make the cards. Birds and Trees and Garden Art.
I hope you enjoyed my creation for this week.
Have a great week and be sure to stop back by next week to see what AJ has to share!

Hello Everyone!
It's Angela this week with some inspiration for you all!!
Hope everyone week was good!
I started my first week at my new job. I'm loving my new job!!
This week I have a treat slider I made for little Halloween treats for the kids. They turned out so cute!! I can't believe Halloween is this week already. We will be taking the kids and puppy around the neighborhood trick or treating. Last year it was pouring and they got soaked going around trick or treating. Mommy and Daddy got lucky and didn't have to go out then since their Uncle was here for Halloween. They had a blast with him even though their candy was all wet and so were they!
 
I used 2 different sets from MFP to make my little slider box this week. I used the new set What A Scream and then a favorite from last year Autum Splendor. I just did them simple since they will be for the kids and then I put a Kit Kat inside them.
Hope everyone has a safe Halloween and doesn't eat too much candy!!
I hope you enjoyed my creation for this week.
Have a great week and be sure to stop back by next week to see what AJ has to share!

Hello Everyone!
It's Angela this week with some inspiration for you all!!
Welcome back to another week at Crafty Moms!
This week my son's swim team had their monthly social. We went to the local corn maze. It was alot of fun watching the kids run around to find the 6 stations. Then some of us moms went in a group to find the stations also. It was just a beautiful day for a fun night!
This week I decide it's time to start working on some Halloween treats for the kids. I saw this idea awhile ago on Pinterest. I thought it would fun to give this out to the kids and for their teachers.
 
I bought a big container of cheese balls at Target the other night and I already had some small clear bags. I made my topper and then stamped the cute little ghost and pumpkin from What A Scream. I paper pieced it together instead of using my markers to color the pumpkin. Then I had to get creative on the next step. I wanted it to say Pumpkin Poop so I used 2 sentiment stamps from Pumpkins and Sunflowers Mini Stamp Set I masked off the s on Pumpkins. Then I masked off the word pumpkin and just stamped the P and then same for sunflowers to use the O. I just love how this turned out and can't wait to mass them out!!
I hope you enjoyed my creation for this week.
Have a great week and be sure to stop back by next week to see what AJ has to share!

Hello Everyone!
 
It's Angela this week with some inspiration for you all!!
This has been a wet rainy weekend!! Yesterday we went grocery shopping and walked around to a few stores in the rain. Then we came home and I took our puppy for a walk. Well lets say she was not too happy about the rain and decide she was ready to come home after we got a few house down the road. We just went for a short walk today. Our power flicked a few times but stayed on so I could get my card made for today.

My card for today is a Rainy Day card! So prefect for a Washington weekend!! I used MFP Rain Clouds stamp set. The umbrellas and raindrops are so cute from this set.
I hope everyone has a nice weekend!!
Have a great week and be sure to stop back by next week to see what AJ has to share!
