finally, it has been a long time

Okay so it has been a very long time since I have felt creative. Really been missing the creative outlet, but it just wasn't too happen. So I have been trying to figure out a way to get a little extra cash and thinking that I could put my crafting skills to work. I am thinking about seeing if I can make a few items that I could sell on Ebay or Etsy. I came up with this card design tonight, hoping to make a few more tomorrow along with some dish towels. Let me know what you think and how much you would be willing to pay? Thanks

Snowman ATC

Okay, so I finally decided to jump in with my feet and try my hand at an ATC. The final push was a snowman ATC swap on Fiskateers. For my first ATC cards, I am really happy with how it turned out, but I am open to suggestions from those of you who are more experienced with ATC cards.

Favorite things Crop

Spent the past two days at Scrapaganza's Our Favorite Things Crop. What a good time. This year I actually went with 3 other friends. Usually I go by myself and find myself someone else who is by themselves to sit with. It was so nice to sit with others that I know. We had so much fun, talking, laughing, and cropping. Since it was Our Favorite Things Crop we were given each of the design diva's favorite things. I ended up bring home more stuff than I took. I am never going to get my stuff used up.

Kristen's 4-H projects

For Kristen's 4-H project this year she decided to make a poncho and blanket. She loved getting started on some basic sewing. The only problem she had is that Sarah and I are both right handed and have right handed sewing shears, Kristen however is a lefty. She found it really hard to cut the fabric. Yes, I will be getting her a pair of sewing shears soon, just for her use. Now she can't wait for a football game so that she can stay nice and warm.

Simple project to organize those plastic bags

Used some of my free time today to make a simple project to organize all of those plastic bags that seem to multiply all over my house. Took a new hand towel, sewed bias tape on the inside about two inches from the top and bottom. Threaded elastic threw the bias tape and then sewed up the side. Finally took a piece of twill tape and attached the two ends to opposites of the top. Finally a nice looking place to put all of those bags and when I need one, they will be easy to find.
