Tiles

Today I am sharing a picture of one of two tiles that I made as gifts, I didn't get to take a picture of the other one.  I actually thought the receipient would keep it at work but she took it home.  The tile pictured was made for my manager as she seems to enjoy handmade items.  This was my first time making tiles using vinyl, I backed them with adhesive felt and included the stand.  This is a project that I will more than likely be doing again, now I need more vinyl.  The elephant and greek letters are both from the silhouette store.

I am sharing this project for the Freestyle challenge #180  over at Hiding in my Craft Room.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you'll visit again soon.  Best wishes to you and yours for a prosperous new year!

Another Gift

Recently I was a participant in a Traveling Gift exchange over at Scraps of Color where I altered a letter for my partner.  When my daughter saw it she said I should do one for her so I did!  I just went through my stash pulling out embellishments all of which I didn't use.  The crown because she is our princess, the ladybug because that's one of her nicknames, the purse because she is a shoe and purse addict, the megaphone because she is cheerleader and the blue flowers and bling because blue is her favorite color!  Always happy to use my stash, hope that I will do a better job in 2015 of only buying only what I need.

Take care and have a wonderful week.

Merry Christmas

Wishing you and yours a wonderfully blessed holiday season.  I got this bright idea at the ninth hour to make some gifts for family., which is really a labor of love so today I am sharing two of those gifts.  The first gift pictured above is the album cover for one of the scrapbooks that I did for my brother -in-law.  Earlier this year I gave him the first album and since I had more pictures left  I decided to do this one.

The second gift is a floating frame using a split monogram letter from the Silhouette store, I think it came out okay for a first.  I will have to try it again and fine tune it, I gave my cameo a workout making vinyl projects.
