FORD INSPIRED CROCHET HAT - FORD TRUCK

For the Love of FORD!  This hat and boots set was made by customer request.  She wanted a FORD inspired crochet hat because in her opinion, "Ain't nothing better then a Ford!!!!" 

FORD Inspired Hat & Boots Set:

$25 Infant - Children sizes.

FORD Inspired Hat ONLY:

$15 Infant - Children sizes.  

$20 Teen/Adult Sizes.

I searched high and low for a patch or fabric with the Ford emblem to no avail.  I even called the Ford Company and they did not have anything.  I didn't have a crochet pattern.  So....I just had to figure it out as best I could.  I do hope she likes it!

Be sure to check out my other themed hats and crochet items.  They make awesome gifts for any occasion, themed parties, baby shower, costumes, photo shoot, birthday, etc.

All pictures are of items that I personally crocheted.

SO SWEET - Baby Scrapbook Layout

Simple, Easy and oh-so-Cute! This is another 2-page layout I made for my friend's baby scrapbook using 2 pre-designed pages as my base.  The great thing about pre-designed papers is that you can use them "as is" or dress them up by adding embellishments, photo mats, etc.

I added some Prima Flowers with brads, a stamped cupcake image, the "So Sweet" tag and 3 pink sparkle rhinestone embellishments to the pre-designed page (pictured above) to jazz it up.  

The cupcake (pictured above) was stamped with the Cupcake Sprinkles stamp set and CTMH Exclusive Inks, both from CTMH. I colored over the icing on the cupcake with a Clear atyouSpica marker to give it shimmer and bling.  I love the atyouSpica markers.  They have little shivers of glass in them for that bling that I love!  I coated the cherry with Liquid Glass before I cut it out.

The Little girl holding a cupcake is a stamped image that I colored using Spectrum Noir markers.  The image was stamped using the "Sweet Thing" stamp by Penny Black.  I added 3 white photo mats that I inked the edges of using a Hydrangea ink pad. The bunny, tag and baby carriage (by EK Success, I think) were added using Pop Dots.

HELLO KITTY INSPIRED CROCHET HAT

What little girl (or big girl for that matter) could resist one of these cute Hello Kitty inspired crochet hats?  I gave one of these to a little girl in our church for her birthday and another one for a baby shower.  My crochet needle has been smoking this week filling orders for crocheted hats. The one pictured is a 0-3 month size.  I make these with or without the ear flaps.  $15.

I have a beautiful mini album that I will be posting pictures of after Thanksgiving.  I want to add grommets to the holes for binding the album, then it will be done!  I can't wait for you to see it.

SWEET DREAMS SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT

Tuesday, I shared a 2 page layout that I made for my friend's baby scrapbook.  Today I am sharing another 2 page layout I made for her baby album.

The flowers were stamped, cut out, then attached to the layout using a brad in the center of each flower.  The flower stamps were from the Delight In Everything stamp set, an older retired Close to My Heart stamp set.

I used chipboard letters to add interest and dimension to the layouts.

I added a pieces of crochet lace under the photo mat and the bottom of the page.

GOBBLE GOBBLE.... Crochet Turkey Hat - Beanie

This crochet Turkey Hat (beanie) is perfect for Thanksgiving photos!  I crocheted the beanie first using a standard beanie pattern.  Then, I made the pieces to be added.  I didn't have a pattern for the feathers, beak, etc., so I just made it up as I went.  I really like how it turned out!  The one pictured is 0-3 months.  Several people had asked me about making themed hats for their babies.  I have sold several already..... $15.00 each.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

BABY BUTTERFLY KISSES SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT

I made this layout for a friend's scrapbook for her baby.  This layout was made with "Butterfly Kisses" in mind.  I formed a pocket behind the photo mat on the right-hand layout(pictured above).  I like adding pockets to layouts because they are a great way to add more pictures, memorabilia or journaling.

The letters "BABY" were raised off the page using foam tape to give dimension.

I applied the 2nd Generation Stamping technique (pictured above) using a butterfly stamp set.

I embossed the butterfly (pictured above) in Hydrangea ink, then colored in the white spaces with a Cotton Candy marker.  I cut it out and attached it to the layout using Pop Dots.

I hope you have been inspired!  Be sure to leave me a comment.  Comments are always loved and appreciated!

PAPER DOLLS

OMGosh!  Doesn't this bring back memories?  Every little girl has played with Paper Dolls!  Maybe that is why Paper Doll is my favorite stamp set in the new Close To My Heart Idea Book!  I love how each outfit in this stamp set includes an accessory that represents something all women love.... summertime, purses and sweets.  Another spin on that is.... spending a nice relaxing summer day sipping on a cool glass of lemonade (or iced tea) with your BFF, shopping with your BFF, and sharing cupcakes...chocolate....or a meal with your BFF!  Well, that was my inspirational thoughts when I saw this stamp set! 





  The title "You are a doll" was stamped with the Keepsake Alphabet stamp set.

 










Coloring the little girl in her undergarments (pictured above) takes me back to the days of spend the night parties and sleep overs with my BFF's!



I think I might be the Queen of Pockets (LOL) because I always make pockets on every layout.  Now, don't laugh too hard because there is a reason for this pocket madness.  I always add pockets as an option for adding more photos and/or hidden journaling.  I don't have to use them, but they are always there if I need them. 

 

Have you ever made layouts of a special occasion and had just one photo left over with nowhere to put it?  Well, I have...and a pocket saved the day!

 

So, as always all of the photo mats on both of these pages/layouts also serve as pockets to add more photos, journaling tags, etc. There are 6 pockets total on the page pictured above.  One large pocket was made on the bottom half of the page with three smaller pockets formed by using three mats on top of the large pocket.



The clothes line is made using the Baker's Twine Paradise Assortment.   Paradise is my favorite of the Baker's Twine Assortments because the colors just shout "summer" to me!



 

All of the stamped images were colored using colored pencils.

You can't tell it in this photo, but the icing on the cupcakes are shimmering.  I colored them with colored pencil, then colored over them using a Clear Copic Spica Glitter Pen.

I hope you have been inspired! Be sure to leave me a comment, if you can. Comments are always loved and appreciated!
