I wanted to share with you a Graduation centerpiece that I made for a friend.
Her daughter is graduation college and these are her colors red, black,white and blue.
I made the bottom of this centerpiece like a wreath making it out of a foam noodle. Then I decorated it with red deco mesh. I used a styrofoam square in the middle so that I could attach my pole and the sticks to hold my paper piecings. The paper piecings of the graduation girl and the title are from Designs by Cloud 9 "The Graduation Collection" and can be found HERE

I just LOVE going through the 1.00 section at Target that they put right in front of the store. I find the cutest things for crafting and homeschooling in this section. Last week I found these pencil containers there and was so excited! They are too cute! I wrapped them with school papers from MAMBI and used 3D dimensional school stickers. Wrapped it up with raffia and ribbon. I wrote "You are mint to teach" thank you for being my teacher.
Inside the container I put mint candies. The teacher's loved them!!!
I decided to make one for my Mother =D She loves to sew.
I used Alpha letter stickers from K and Company. Flowers are Prima. I made the butterflies. Papers used are from Colorbok (Victorian Parlour collection pack)

I hope you enjoy watching my video on how I created this layout =D I have two boys and I wanted to create a beautiful Easter layout for them but most of the Easter supplies are pink, yellow and mint green lol! I was thrilled when I found this Easter line from Rusty Pickle last year with the brown and light blue.
My son Jayden received a Flat Stanley in the mail from his cousin Tanner who lives in Colorado. We had so much fun with him =D
Here is all about what Flat Stanley is:
Stanley Lambchop and his younger brother Arthur are given a big bulletin board by their Dad for displaying pictures and posters. He hangs it on the wall over Stanley's bed. During the night the board falls from the wall, flattening Stanley in his sleep. He survives and makes the best of his altered state, and soon he is entering locked rooms by sliding under the door, and playing with his younger brother by being used as a kite. One special advantage is that Flat Stanley can now visit his friends by being mailedin an envelope. Stanley even helps catch some artin an art museum thieves by posing as a painting on the wall. Eventually Arthur changes Stanley back to his proper shape with a bicycle pump.
The shabby chic style has been around for many many years, originating from Great Britain, where time worn items were showcased in most country homes. Today’s essence of shabby chic is to achieve that time worn layered vintage look from yesteryear by painting, distressing, dying or tea staining. Now we bring it to you right from our craft tables.
Please follow along as the following crafters showcase their handmade Shabby Chic Accents. Be sure to visit each blog, as each artist will be having a giveaway. Also, we have a couple of awesome sponsors who have generously donated for a “Grand Prize Giveaway”. Their shops are full of shabby goodness. To qualify, all you have to do is leave a comment on each blog.
Thanks for hoping along with us this month of February. Our theme for this month is "Valentine's Day or Love". Hope you guys like each and every video and please leave a comment on every video to be eligible to WIN a prize from our SPonsors.
I decided to do a layout of my youngest son's first class Valentine's party he just had in his pre k. I made the photo collage using a Digital scrapbook template that I purchased at Designer Digitals and used my Photoshop Elements program to place the photos on the digital template. I just purchased a wide format printer and wanted to try it out =D I LOVE LOVE it! I was able to print the photo collage at 12x12 format =D

For my project I wanted to share with you I created two of these candle holders for my mantel. I took some wrapping tissue and covered the glass holder with it. Then I created the flourish frame border cutting file, circle doily frame and the kissing couple. I am happy how it came out...its so much prettier in person but you can still see how much it lights up with my battery candle inside.
