Valentine School Treats!

Aloha Everyone,

I have been MIA because Myself and my whole family has caught the flu. My first kid was sick from Tuesday, then on Thursday I had 2 more, then the baby woke up from a nap sick:( Then on Friday I got sick and another kid got sick. Then on Saturday we were all sick. Keep in mind my hubby has been sick too:( All you hear in my house is cough, cough, sniff, mom I don't feel good.... So today on Sunday I only have 1 better. Hope this goes away soon.

I just wanted to share my Valentine's Treat for the kids school. Only 3 of them are bringing treats. I decided to keep it simple. I cut tags from the Sweethearts Cartridge. I stamped and embossed the tags with Lauren's adorable Love stamp set from 40:31 Creations.

Have a great Valentine's Day!

Valentine's Paper Globe

Aloha Everyone,

I found this great blog Heather Bailey with awesome directions on how to make paper globes.

I used my cricut and cut out the 20 circles that is needed. Then I used her pattern to make my triangle, and traced it in the middle. Math was not my best subject.

I embossed my stamp image on the dark papers, and used red ink for the white papers.


Here is my finished project. I just adhered the circles any random order, then attached some red ribbon on top and bottom and added a little bling using my jewelry finds.

This turned out to be a pretty big globe. I cut it on the circut at 5 inches. I probably would make my next cut at 3 inches.

Have a great day!

Hau'oli Makahiki Hou! Happy New Year!

Aloha Everyone-

I have not been crafting much. I have my kids home for the break and have been enjoying spending time with them.

We went to the zoo, teaching the girls how to sew (one of my daughters got a new sewing machine for Christmas), watching movies, cleaning house before the new year or we'll have bad luck (my kids think I 'm nuts), and just taking it easy. I love it.

Tomorrow it all goes away. Kids are back in school which means back to early mornings and picking up and dropping off kids. Busy, Busy, Busy!!!

I wanted to share some pictures of how we celebrated our New Years!

Have a great New Years!!!
