Halloween Advent Calendar...

I thought it would be fun to make an advent calendar for Halloween for my two young kids. This is how I made it...

So I started off with a 9x13 cookie sheet from the $1 store. The metal is pretty light, so my hubby made too holes with a large nail and a hammer on the sides of the pan for the ribbon to attach to. Then I did some simple, light scrapbooking on the inside of the pan so it wouldn't be too thick with paper so the magnets would hold to the metal nicely. The paper line I used is BoBunny.
You can find this Curly Tree pattern for FREE HERE at The Paper Piecing Beehive where I sell paper piecing cut files.
Then I went and got the BoBunny "Whoo-ligans" chipboard set to make some of the days. I stamped days on 14 of the chipboard pieces and then for the rest of the days I used Diamond Glaze to put numbers on the bottoms of smooth flat marbles. Then I put magnets on the bottom all 31 pieces. I also put a little Stickles glitter on some of the chipboard pieces.

Here is some close ups & different angles...

Sliding Into Summer

I know, I know... it has been WAY too long since I last listed a layout on eBay. Can you believe that the last time I listed was May. How the summer has flew by and I've enjoy ever minute of it! We didn't do real vacations, but we did go to Idaho a few times to visit family. We also did a bunch of parade's and fireworks, two fairs and lots of visiting with family and friends! I'm happy to be back to selling. I love creating layouts!

So here is my latest creation! I updating my playground set and I am really loving it. I'm working on getting it ready to sell as a file set too! I sure hope you all like it!

Felt Cake

So my daughter Shay comes to me the other day and says that it is her babies (dolls) birthday. They are "twins"! hehe Anyways, I told her I would help by making a cake for her. I have seen felt food patterns on Etsy.com and thought how hard can it be.

It really wasn't hard to make, but it was a little time consuming and my hubby, Julio, was great to give me time without the kids to make it. Shay LOVES it and it planning the babies birthday party today! I think I'll try some more in the future if I get some more time.

CLICK HERE for link to the pattern.

The roses were the most time consuming because they have 7 pieces and you have hand sew each one separately.

A little close up...

I added a few details to my cake, like the ric-rac to hide the seams and the ribbon and "metal" ring on the pipping bag.
