Another Quilt Finished

Here's another quilt I had made during the summer, I just got it back from the quilter (Most of the time I quilt it myself but this time I just wanted to send it off) and put the binding on it last night. The pattern is called Arcadia by Kari Nichols for Mountain Peak Creations and the fabric is Sasara from the Henley Studio Makower uk.

New Quilt

I just finished this small quilt. The pattern is called Winter White from Schnibbles by Miss Rosie, the fabric is Nottingham Village, Judie Rothermel for Marcus Fabrics.

Prima Tag Challenge

So last Thursdays Live With Prima online show we were offered a challenge to make a tag using only Prima products. This is my tag.

And here is the video on how I made it

Memory Album

I decided to do a mini album on the last Christmas spent with my mother-in-law as a dedication to her memory (I still want to do one that covers her personality and the things she loved to do). For those who don't know she passed away last winter. Christmas was always a time of great joy for her because that's when she could be with her children again, whether it was at our annual Christmas gathering or she would fly out to see her children that were too far to come this way.

The products used in this album are mainly from My Little Yellow Bicycle's Christmas Delight line. Other paper is from Bo Bunny and Creative imaginations.Stamp from Stampin Up, flowers are from several companies(I'm sorry I can't quite remember from where). Prima Say-it-in-Pearls. Ranger Stickles, Glimmer Mist(the tree on the back page) Ribbon collected from all over the place even gift wrap. Maya Road chipboard snowflake. Everything else is from MLYB as stated above.

Marion Smith Inspired mini albums

Think Pink Paper Bag Mini album #1, I made this one for someone I know who is going through breast cancer right now.

Think Pink Paper Bag Mini Album #2, this one I made for a Breast Cancer Awareness scrap as a door prize. Its almost the same, the pages are different though.

Another mini album that I made from watching Marion Smith's Ustream video's on Live with Prima and apieceofcraft.com. I have made this book 5 times already it has to be my favorite.

Here's another version, I'm not quite done but I used Prima papers on this one.

I'm also working on an animal print one for my daughter to keep all her pet cat pictures in.

Mixed Media Painting

So I finally dug out my brushes and paint again. I wanted to try something different. In this painting I used eggshells as a medium to create the fallen leaves on the ground. I have to say I had a lot of fun playing with the gel medium I used to adhere the eggshells on. The painting is 8"x 10" in acrylic.
