This is my playground- where I get to "play" with crafts- of all sorts. It's so much fun to try new things out, why limit myself? Maybe someone else will get inspired to "play" too... there's always room in the crafty playground for great ideas to be shared!

He will cover you with his feathers wall art
Since I've tried this with the tongue and groove board, I decided to play around with a scrap I had, to see if I could pull it off for a sign for our MOPS auction (www.mops.org) Again, I must give credit to the original source of this- I used pretty much the same colors as her and the same configuration, it is her design- I just loved it! http://www.harbourbreezehome.com/2011/11/tongue-and-groove-signs/ Check out her new Etsy shop too, she is super talented and makes some darling signs :) Have I mentioned how much I love this color combination? I used the same technique again, with the Cricut vinyl letters- a combination of the Jasmine cartridge and the Plantin Schoolbook. For the blue lettering, when I painted the base color of the board, I strategically painted parts of it blue where I wanted blue lettering. Fun, fun, fun! :) Oh, a little side note- the bird is from the Storybook cartridge. I hope this does well at the auction- the more I look at it, the more I like it- even though I already have the tongue and groove board version of this in my entryway.
I love to "play" with my hands with all sorts of crafts. I don't feel like I have any particular skill or talent at any given craft, and I'm a perfectionist (bad combination). I do really enjoy the process (most of the time, other than wanting to throw something out the window because of said perfectionism... )I can't get enough of mini albums, and I love trying new sketches for layouts, too. I'm equally happy trying out some new paper project or altering items with cute scrapping goodies. Ahhh, so many crafts, so little time.....
