Cinderblock flower pot

For my project this week I went to Home Depot for some of the things I needed! I painted a cinderblock with white paint. Then I used my cricut to cut out a tree and grass that I used to stencil onto the block. I then used the three little flowers from peachy keens April stamp of the month along with the peachy keen baby bee stamp. The “busy little bee” is stenciled on with one of my letter stencils. Then I used paint markers to color it all in. I also put a clear coat that you can use on concrete outdoors to help protect from weather. Then I filled the holes with potting soil and added Celosia because my back yard doesn’t get a whole lot of shade I needed a flower that took full sun!  This is one block of many more to come; I plan of lining my whole back yard with these flower pots because I have a dog that likes to dig by the fence!   

Our 3 little ducks scrapbook layout

Hello everyone! For this week’s peachy keen challenge what inspired me was the color so I made this scrapbook page with pictures of my three babies!

 

 The 12 x 12 scrapbook paper is from the playtime stack paper pack that I got for 5.00 at Michaels! The paper in this pack is super cute and I couldn’t believe the deal on it! For the green rolling hills I used green card stock and layered them. Then I used my peeled paint distress marker to put stitching around the hills. The border around the pictures is done with red card stock and white gel pen. The saying about the main picture is printed on blue card stock. Then the stitching as well as the writing on the hill by the three little ducks was done with my barn door distress marker.

Now for my favorite part of this page the three cute little ducks! These are from the peachy keen stamp of the month for April! These little guys are too darn cute! I stamped them out on yellow card stock paper and then hand cut them out. Then colored their feet and bills in. On their eyes I used white gel pen and then glossy accents. I really enjoyed making this page and getting to use these stamps!

Bday Card for Tina

I made this card for my husband’s sister. Her birthday is coming up this month. The little fairy and “wishing you a fairy happy birthday” are stamps from peachy keen stamps PK-121 Mini Fairies and Girl Gnomes. I think these are just so cute!

 

One of the reasons I love the way this card is because how it can be set up makes it perfect to slide a gift card in for a nice little surprise!

Paper Lantern Night Light

For this project I used a LED lit paper lantern to make and night light for a baby boy’s room. I then used peachy keen stamps from Feb. 2013 and stamped them right onto the lantern and colored them in with markers. For the lettering and small stars I used vinyl and cut it with my cricut.
