Projects #3 - Unique

Hey guys! Ok, so Christmas is over...and i hope you had a super fabulous one!!! So like i was saying...Christmas is over and the New Year is only 4 days away! I don't know about you, but i'm super excited for that day. Two reasions why...(1). My b-day happens to be on that day:) (2). It's the beginning of a whole new year! I love it...getting together with friends and fam, partying the night away, making new year's resloutions and planning to stick the them :D LOL., and just the whole thought and reality of it being a NEW year! You gotta love it!

So i did this project a couple of weeks ago and had a BLAST making and putting it together! So much fun.

One of the many things i'm totally in love with is painting, especially when it's on a nice piece of canvas. So I felt one day like being totally random and creative...and as a result, I came up with what is the messy  background for this project:)

I took a pair of old jeens and cut our the heart(this seriously has to be my fave part :] )...then added the little stitched wording rectangles(I did NOT make these...i'm not that talented. lol!

Well thanks so much for taking a look and have an awesome week!

Projects #2 - Laugh & Love

 Hey guys, and happy '1st of December' :) Wow, this year has gone by SO fast!!! I can't believe it's already december...!!!

 Ok, so this week I have a wall-hanger to show you that i made entirely from scraps. Super fun, super cute, and SUPER easy! Gotta love 'em :)

 Isn't this butterfly absolutely gorgeous??? Definately the icing on the cupcake.

 Mm-hmm...more paper roses(thanks Rita for teaching me!!! You know who you are:] )

                                                        And a little bit of ribbon...love it.
Soo...last month was extremely crazy!!! I'm so excited for this new month. But, one thing that definately stood out from last month was...one of me and my sister's favorite bands 'Everfound' came to town! It was an AMAZING experience and show...something that we were able to experience together with friends and that we'll never forget :D If you've never heard of Everfound, then you have to check them out! They're entire band consists of 4 christian brothers who moved here to the USA 14 years ago from Russia. Check em out here!

 Me with my gorgeous sisters <3

Thank you so much for looking and I wish you a fantastic December!!!

Projects #1- Crazy Love

Do you ever invision something in your head and then are NOT content until you make that vision a reality? This is something that I go through all the time, and this week's project is something that I completed a couple days ago after hearing the song 'Crazy Love' -Hawk Nelson on the radio. I loved the song so much that I knew I'd have to create something using the title and lyrics. And so this is what I came up with...((you can listen to the song by clicking on the link 'Crazy Love' above)) ;)

So I started out with a piece of blank canvas and painted over it with black acrylic paint. It took 3 coats to get it just right :)

 I made these flowers...which I am now seriously OBSESSED with making...so much fun!

 The 'Love' piece was already a chipboard cut-out. I left it in its original white and went over it with a ((very))stiff paintbrush dipped in red paint.

Yeah, more little roses...and chipboard letters that I painted white to go with my project.

 You can listed to 'Crazy Love' here. Be sure to check it out!

Cute!

 Has it seriously been over 2 weeks since I last said I was "back on track"? lol=) I am with the layouts, but NOT with taking the pictures=( --So this is a LO I did last week. And I know, the pics aren't that good but bear with me! lol

 Aren't those faces hillarious? But then cute at the same time=) Mm-hmm...baby girl is starting to express herself!...ALOT! We rarely see her NOT smiling these days--which is definately a good thing=)

  Aren't those letters awesome? I found 'em on a 99-cent isle. Not bad at all for 99-cents! =)

The journaling says: Look at you! You are just the cutest thing ever! At only 2 months, you are starting to show off the cutest face expressions- and getting lots of feedback. But then again, when you are as cute as you are...people just can't resist.

Thanks for stoppin' by and takin' a look!

Magical...

Hey peeps! and happy thursday=)

 (Sorry, the pic really sucks=(

So I made these flowers using cardstock, gold brads, and a little bit of "bling" =)

 One of my sisters took this pic while we were at disneyland last year. I love this picture so much because it just so....awesome! lol!

One of my favorite things about scrappin' is the journaling. Alot of times I won't know what to write down, so I just leave it blank. But when I do that it's like I left the most essential part of the page out!

-So I have another shadowbox to show you.

The words are from a song titled "My Favorite Things" from the musical/movie "The Sound of Music". You can listen to the song here

Close-ups=)

 Thanks for lookin'!

Back on "track"! -- she is beautiful...

 O....M.....G!!!!!  I can't even begin to tell you how busy i've been lately! Babysitting, track, grad. parties, school, you name it- i've been doing it! But its good to be back and on track=)

Now this is a lo that I did a couple of months ago.  (Note: Infact, the LOs that I post within the next few days are probably gonna be ones that I put together at least 2 months ago! I just haven't been keeping up with them and taking pics) =( So anyways, ...I wanted to make this lo really fun (to match with that awesome/fun/cute paper!). I used lots of bright colors and made some fun flowers to go along=)

So cute!

-So speaking of "track", I was so blessed to be able to coach elementary track  for my homeschool group this year. My kids (and all the other kids on our team ranging from 1st to 8th grade) did an AWESOME job and their hard work and determination payed off! Our team placed 2nd out of 20 teams in the valley! Awesome huh!

 One of my little bros gettin' ready to race! (He's the one with the long-sleeved, striped shirt)

 Me and my girls during a practice(not the best picture!) lol!

 My lil' sis and lil' bro at the track meet. Awww!

Baby girl's first track meet and she decides to sleep through the whole thing! Well, most of the time anyways=)

And the girl with the blue jacket is my sis. You go girl!

-I have one more thing to show you before I leave! Here's a hint: It's one of my newest obsessions...(ok, that wasn't a very good hint! lol)

 Shadow boxes!!!

 Now I made this a couple days ago. The little box that I used had been laying around our house for-EVER! Then one day i decided to stop passing it by, so I picked it up and decided to use it! Cute huh=)

I love these colors!

This shadowbox is sitting on a shelf in my room now=)

-Well that's it for today, but I promise I have lots more to show you (including a couple more shadow boxes. I find that once you make one you gotta make more. The possibilities are endless! lol) Thanks so much for stoppin' by!
