I spent time this weekend working on two projects. One wasn’t exactly an “epic fail” as my kids would say but it wasn’t a super winner either. Sometimes you can save an epic fail by taking a great picture of it. Well, this weekend wasn’t my time for that either. My photos, nearly all of them, were definite “epic fails”. Today I will try taking my projects outside and getting some shots that way. Hopefully, without sneezing my head off and getting a bunch of shots of my own feet or camera strap. Hmmm, maybe I should get a pedicure just in case. Always err on the side of your toes being seen. LOL!
If you’ve missed these Easter projects that I did last year, you might want to check them out:
I used one of Lori Whitlock’s cut files along with my Silhouette SD (before I got the Cameo) and made a mirror that turns people into Peeps! You can see more photos and information here.
Using the Kate’s ABCs Cricut Cartridge, I created this vinyl canvas art. Yep! You can use vinyl on canvas you just have to prep the canvas first. 😉 More info and photos on that here.
Hot glue, some dollar store flowers and a few other very inexpensive things made the prettiest Easter basket that you just have to see! Click HERE to see the completed Easter basket. Um, yeah. I did get my full $1’s worth out of those flowers by using them in this project and as decorations in the vinyl canvas project. LOL!
TIME FOR A GIVE AWAY!!
