More Glass Flowers!!

I just love to make these flowers, they are so different from any others I have seen!! I love them!! but they can be a little pricey to make!!





Glass Flower Set

I posted some of my sets in my gallery on sb.com and one of my friends there saw them and asked if I can make her 2 set of them and this is what I created for her, she said she wanted them for her sister who was fighting cancer, she is making a mini album for her and decided to add a little special touch to it, it was a pleasure to make these for her, I want to get these off to her right away so she can present that beautiful album to her......Thanks Timetraveler for choosing me to make those items for you!!! Hugs Sandy!!



Glass Flowers/charms and stick pins

these are just a few sets of Flowers/Charms and stick pins I've completed for a swap on sb.com sorry the pic's are a little dark, but I didn't have time to take more, because they were already late and had to be mailed right away, but my theme was a vintage theme. TFL

Love Notes

my last tag i had to make for a Lace tag swap! She's a cutie with all her beautiful flowers and vines in her hair!! I used for this tag DCWV La Creme paper pad, brads acetate sheet music, red ribbon/flowers, fiskars punch, lace dollie and beaded sprouts... this is another one of my favorites, this was really fun the images makes it easy to basically come up with a design, once I saw the vines and flowers, I knew I wanted to make a tag using red. TFL!!!

Crocheting/Knitting!

Today was my Bowie knitting/crocheting group, I meet new ladies and some of the regulars, we had a wonderful time, just sitting, chatting and eating, I really like my group of women who I hang out with 2(twice) a month, they are so helpful with any project you may have!! I am working on a project call the Hexagon pattern, and it is not difficult doing it but trying to put those suckers together is driving me nuts!! lol! I have been working on these for about a week now, and have been successful, but now I have ran into some kinks UGGGH!!, the ladies at the group was trying to help me come up with a solution on how to attatch the Hexagons, but I want to do it an easier way and sew them as I go, but I will make it work out somehow.....sew them all and then go back and slip stitch with making hundreds of them...... A bit too much from what Bowie Knitters told me. I want it to be throw blanket for myself, and It will be when I am finished!!! just have to come up with another solution.

Here is Lucy's Hexagon from Attic24
How Beautiful is that!!!















These are the hexagons I completed, but still not put together......















and this is what I put together so far, I have a long way to go!!! but I am not going to let it get me down!!!!

any bloggers out there who see this pattern or have done anything like this, please come to my rescue and give me a shout out on how to complete this!! Thank You Bloggers!!!

Just The 2 Of Us!!

I have been doing a few changes in my scrap space and decided to add a few new things to it, so these are the pictures that hang over my scrap table. We took those pictures a little while ago and I decided to scap them, the colors scheme fit my space perfect, since I have changed my space to cream/white and black, this color seem to fit my style better than just green, what you think? I enjoyed making these layouts of me and my daughter, I guess because she is always so photgenic and loves to take pictures, she is always ready when a camera is in eye view of her.
