Redesigned Furniture

 Kelly also gave these garage sale finds a fun make over.  She used Rustoleum spray paint, in the color Lagoon, and gave them both an overall coat to make them pop!

Paint Chip Art

Kelly is working on finishing her basement and has finished some projects this month to get closer to her goal!  She gathered a bunch of pain chips in the coral color family and cut them into triangles.  Then she arranged them in an ombre layout and glued them to a canvas.

Pony Party

This month my daughter celebrated her 5th birthday and she is big into horses, so she wanted a pony party.

 I found this card on Silhouette and she told me very specifically what needed to be what color. I think it turned out to be a pretty cute invite.

 She is also big into crafts so we planned a lot of crafts for the girls to do.  This was one of them.  I used pieces from other silhouette shapes (hair and ears came from a cow) I had and then free handed a few pieces and cut them all out in advance to make these horse treat bags.  Yes, I think the pink nose looks a little like a pig, but the kid wanted pink and purple and was happy with it:)  We also decorated horse cut outs with ribbon, glitter glue, google eyes, and gems.  And of course we made pony bead bracelets and necklaces!  

Wedding Gift

 One of my cousins got married this month and I created this card and variation on a split letter for them as part of their wedding gift.

You've Got Mail

First project on the Silhouette for me!  My husband helped me with this one - I think mostly to ensure that both sides weren't OU haha!  We sanded and spray painted the mailbox to make sure we had an even surface and then traced logos and cut them out onto adhesive vinyl with the silhouette.  Then we just peeled and stuck them on... GO STATE and BOOMER SOONER! : )  

Knitting Away

This month Vicki knitted some square patches for Squares for Africa.  

 You leave a tail so that it can be added to other squares that are sent in to make blankets, jackets, etc.

She also knitted more for her supply of washcloths and hot pads.

Falcons Apron

My friend, Lisa, made these aprons for her husband and son.  She wanted to add a little something to them, so I added the large falcons using Heat Transfer Vinyl.  I already had the design in my Silhouette library, so I just cut each layer out and used my heat press to stick it down.  I have a feeling that this father/son duo will be grilling outside together every Sunday this fall!
