An ornament for Christmas

Here is the wooden ornament I made for a White Elephant exchange this weekend.

I really enjoyed making it and I think I might make a few cards the same.
Have a Merry Christmas everyone.!

Winter Journal



I took part in a Winter Journal swap where we were to take a notebook and transform it into a Winter Journal for our partner. My partner said she liked cats and snow so this is what I came up with for her.

I put foamy snowflakes and stars all around the cover and then watercolored a kitten in a sleigh on the bottom corner.







inside I put stickers of kittens here and there that were dressed for winter or playing in the snow. I hope she likes it.

Re-useable Shopping Bag Swap

Here is a Crafty swap I did that required us to make three re-useable shopping bags. Here are two that I made for one of my partners. The othe bag was a crocheted bread bag that I finished at the park right before taking the box to the post office therefore I didn't get a picture. On the green bag there are two Vegan recipe's and a fall tree background, iron on fringed after being sewed on. The other is just a basic bag with lobsters all over and a hidden coupon pouch. I really enjoyed making these and have now volunteered to make three more for someone who got flaked. I will be sure to post them here as well.
IF you would like a re-useable shopping bag holler and I will share my Etsy address.
