Summer Party Blog Hop


WELCOME TO THE SUMMER PARTY BLOG HOP 



This blog hop is to share some fun party decorating ideas for the summer. If you didn't start at the beginning please head back to :

SHANNON'S BLOG

so you don't miss any of the great ideas the ladies have to share with you today.

I decided to make some new Fourth Of July Decorations for my new house. 


This was cut using the Silhouette Cameo. It was a cut file from their store. I cut the pieces, then glued them to chipboard and cut out around the heart. This is to hang on my fridge. It is fun to have a seasonal decoration on the fridge each month. It adds a little something to the kitchen. 


This is a banner that I made. I got the idea from Pintrest. I cut circles. The largest is 10". The middle one is 7". The smallest one is 5". I again used the Cameo to cut them. They are also cut files from the Silhouette store. This is only the 2nd time I have used my machine so I am still learning. I am very happy with this new wonderful machine. The banner is going to hang in the eat-in kitchen area above the table. 

I hope I have given you some July 4th inspiration. 
Thanks for hopping by.

I thought it would be fun to share with all of you some 100 Acre Woods fun!
I moved to central Florida 7+ years ago. Since we have lived here we have had Disney passes. I LOVE going to Disney World for the day. I started collecting autographs when we got our first pass and am always adding new ones. I have more then 100 autographs. So today I am sharing the pages that I have created for the 100 Acre Woods characters that I have seen at Disney World.





The Tigger head, dancing Piglet and Pooh head are all cut using the Cricut.

These are all done 8x8. They include the autograph and photos of me and some with my friends and some with my kids. It just depends on who is with me when I get them.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my autographs even 1/2 as much as I enjoy collecting them! Have a GREAT WEEKEND!!

Cinco De Mayo at Cuttin' & Stampin'

Head over to Cuttin' & Stampin' to see how the girls have been getting you ready for Cinco De Mayo all week!!

I am starting an 8x8 album which will be items from my childhood trips. My parents and I drove all over the United States, Mexico, Eastern Canada and Central America. We were in a van and camped 90% of the time. There were many adventures that are fun to look back at. I am taking a couple of scrapbooks I found when I moved recently from my childhood and are taking the items out and preserving them better.

So today I am sharing with all of you a page from one of the trip to Mexico in 1981.

Green Is Good Blog Hop



                                  WELCOME
                                     



Something recycled, something repurposed, whether it’s a milk jug turned in to a scoop, or a tin can made in to a pencil holder. Maybe your kids planted some trees to help the environment, or maybe you did. There are tons of ways to get greener in everyday life. 
Today we are showing off our creations to celebrate Earth Day 2013.
If you’re just starting here make sure to head over to the beginning at My Life in Arts’ n Crafts’. I hear she’s giving away some goodies!

All of us have bottles around. Usually I toss them in the recycle bin, but when Jessi asked us to repurpose something , I thought I need to organize my paint brushes and I need a change bucket. So these are what I came up with.

The big one is a sauce jar. The smaller one is plastic flower container.


The first step is, if you are going to use food containers, make sure you wash them very well. I put mine through the dishwasher. Next I wanted to change the color. The best product I have found for this is alcohol inks. There are several brands out there, but I LOVE Viva Decor products. Their alcohol inks are very bright. All you do is use a cotton ball or applicator and sponge the outside of the bottle with the color of your choice. They dry very quickly, like 5 minutes at the most!



I thought it would be fun to add words to the containers. I used little metal letters on the change jar. I used the amazing E-6000 adhesive. This stuff sticks ANYTHING to ANYTHING!! If you don't have some around your house, you need some!! For the brush bottle I used Making Memories rub-on letters. I thought these looked kind of like they were painted or sponged on. 


The finishing touches were to cover the screw top area of the brushes with a piece of old material that I tore into strips. Then for the change container I again used the E-6000 adhesive and put pennies on the lid. 



There are so many things you can do with clear containers. The ideas are endless! Use your imagination and repurpose some of those containers instead of recycling them all.


~~~ENJOY~~~
