Paper Piecings

Hi there!   Summer is really going by fast isn't it?   Today I thought I would work on some paper piecings.  I finished Chip and Dale finally.   I am loving my Silhouette Cameo!  I thought about buying the new Cricut Explore,  but after much research I found out that I can't do what I am able to do on my Silhouette and that's making my own piecings like my Disney nerds.   Here they are.   Let me know what you think please!

Disney Calendar

Happy Wednesday!   Today I thought I would do some crafting.   I'm working on a few pieces and creating a few SVG files of nerdy Chip and Dale to go with my nerd Mickey and Donald.  Here are some calendar pages I made trying my hand at tear bears.  Let me know what you think!   Don't forget to follow my blog for more inspiration.

Blogging

So, as you can see, I started this blog 3 years ago.  Originally I wasn't sure what I was doing back then and just knew that I liked reading and looking at all kinds of craft blogs, so I thought it would be fun to have one of my own.  What I didn't know was, how to get followers to make it worth my while.  The last few years I've just been using my blog as a teaching tool for my 5th graders, but having the summer off has made me realize that I want to share so much more of my work.  Since I have years (and I do mean years) worth of crafts, scrapbooking, and other crafty things that I've made, I decided to start sharing them here at my blog and on pinterest.    Hopefully someday, I will have more than one follower :) So, if  you like visiting, please become a follower and don't hesitate to leave a comment, I would really like to see what you think of my work. 

Baby Shower Gift

My cousin is having a baby shower and I wanted to make something special.  Of course it had to have a little Minnie Mouse touch to it.  I've seen all kinds of cute shower gifts on Pinterest and thought I would attempt to make something different.  I made a stroller our of blankets, bibs, and even added a cute little Minnie Mouse stuffy.  Here it is!

Breakfast at Tiffany's

Every year I get to attend my sisters annual tea party.   The theme changes and this year is Breakfast at Tiffany's.  I absolutely love movies from the 1960 ' s and think I should've been a grown up then as I love the fashion and the simplicity of that era.   But I get to enjoy watching them now.   Here are some photos and things I made for the party.

Thank you!

I made this gift for Mia's teacher.   Of course I have been bad at posting things to my blog so I thought I would share it today.   Here it is!

Maleficent Party!

Being the Disney fanatic that I am,  I love all things that give me an opportunity to create Disney style.   I started planning this party in November when I found out about it.   I made all the decisions and even our shirts.  I also made everyone a necklace to wear to the movie premier.  Here they are:
