Mod Podge!

The frame I made for my hubby from his baby girl :)
The front and back of a GIANT clothespin I turned into a recipe holder.

The 'Christmas Cookies' recipe box I made for my mom's birthday. We always make cookie trays for Christmas and usually end up misplacing all the recipes, so now there is a dedicated place for them.

The above is a frame I made for my little niece. She is very much into 'peace,' so I tried to come up with some '70's' looking paper and just used the Cricut to cut out the letters. I ended up putting in a picture of baby Kenzy for her. :)
This is a locker decoration I made for my oldest niece. The metal hanging hooks blend in with the table. There is something at the top for her to hang it on, and a little hook at the bottom for her to hang things on. She LOVED that it has a mirror. I also used the Cricut to cut out the letters...I used the shadow feature to make her name stand out.

Wedding/Anniversary Cards for a Retreat

My first experiments with my new Texture Boutique. The backgrounds have all been embossed.
These two cards were my first experiments with my new page border punches.
I was asked to make several marriage retreat cards for a Valentine's Day marriage retreat. These are the three examples I made up for my aunt. She liked them all and wanted me to choose...I have decided to do half and half...I will make half and half of the first two cards. She is coming up with a Bible verse for the inside.
