She believed she had wings....

I know it's been a very loooong time since I posted anything, I've been drifting around looking for inspiration and dabbling in a few things.  Yesterday I finished a mixed media project I started a month ago.  I think I'm hooked :)  Boy was it fun, I'm dying to do more!! I started by painting a little girl then added wings made from pages out of a book (one of my husbands, shhhhh don't tell him) then I punched some daisies and glued some buttons and finished by printing off the sentiment and cutting it up and painting the big words.
Hope you like it

Homemade Valentine Gifs

I'm so glad Pinterest exists.  I have to visit the site at least once a day and sometimes more when I'm looking for ideas.  One of the ideas I found was how to make goldfish hair clips.  So I made a couple and then placed them in card size clear bags and printed the topper from Whimsie Doodles to finish it.

Now that I have a Valentine gift for girls it was time to figure out what to make for boys.  So I made key chains for locker or house keys.  

Homemade light fixture

I saw these really cute light covers that were made out of antique tea cup and saucers and thought I love to have one but just couldn't bring myself to drill a hole in an antique so I thought I'd just stop by the Clay Cafe in Truro and see if I could make own.  When I told my husband what I wanted to do he gave that that look that said "it sounds crazy" but good luck.  So when I got the the Cafe I thought the ladies there would think I was loosing my mind when I asked them to drill a hole in the the tea cup and saucer.  Instead they were actually excited to see how it would turn out.  So here it is and hubby loves it!  And it's a good thing because I needed him to do the wiring :)

Bird cage tags

The minute I saw the bird cage die from Poppy Stamps Dies I knew I had to have it.  I wasn't sure what I was going to do when I got it but I just had have it.  So today I was inspired to use the die and make some Christmas tags with it.  So I die cut and inked them with Antique Linen by Ranger and started decorating with the Winter Wonderland paper pad by My Mind's Eye.  I had some left over Poinsettia pieces (Spellbinders) and some snowflakes (Martha Stewart). 

I didn't have a bird die so I had to make one up.  What's your favorite bird die?  I think I may need to get one :)

Let me take care of that....
