Mini Diaper Cake Centerpiece

Springtime reminds me of great weather (except in Metro Atlanta where we started our day with temperature below freezing today). Nevertheless, it's springtime and warm weather and pretty flowers are soon to come (I hope). This time of year is perfect for outside events and celebrations, especially baby showers. I love all the cute stuff there is for babies now. Especially for boys. No more restriction to blue, green, and brown. Today, I had the opportunity to create a sports themed mini diaper cake centerpiece for a baby shower. The challenge for me is that I am not a sports person. I only know minimal bits and pieces of the games to "get by". Never thought I would need this knowledge. Luckily, the theme for the baby shower is already set and l was given a beautifully designed invitation to use for inspiration. I think it turned out very cute. Most importantly, the proud Grandmother loves it. Used the Cameo Silhouette to create this project.

Shabby Chic Mother's Day Gift Basket

Gift Basket Idea for best friend, girl friends, Mother's Day or any a "just thinking about you" occasion.  I wanted to design a more feminine gift basket for Mother's Day this year.  And when I think of feminine, I instantly think of doilies, laces, pinks and flowers.  Of course, any color or theme can be used to create so many girly and frilly projects.  However, I decided to go with flowers, lace pampering and a "touch of chocolates" to complete my latest Mother's Day Gift Baskets for this year.  Thought all of my good pictures were lost, but somehow "Google" has them all safe, sound and protected for me.  I don't know if this is a good thing or not.  I'm just happy my pictures aren't lost forever.   I won't even get into my "back up storage" situation.  Hope you like the pictures.  Thanks so much for watching.  Please leave a comment if you can.

 

Baskets each have a personalized etched coffee mug for drinking the soothing teas included in each basket. 

Had so much fun creating the individual little boxes full of treats .  The paper stack used is called "Bloom" by My Mind's Eye. 

 

Tag included on each basket made with Stampabilities' "A Mother is" Stamp. 

 

Character Themed Easter Baskets

It seems as if all of the spring holidays are over and I'm just getting a chance to post again.  Between making projects for Easter, Mother's day, Father's Day, birthdays, weddings and graduations (and let's not forget my full-time job), there aren't enough hours in a day for me.  The crazy thing is that I just love it.   Found the time to share this video of some of my Easter projects.  The Cameo Silhouette cutter is just amazing to me.  All of the characters and boxes were made using the print and cut features using the Cameo Silhouette software (designer edition).  


Thanks for watching.
