Mom Goggles!

Hello, I am sure you are wondering what "Mom Goggles" are.

Well, have you heard of "Beer Googles"? ... when an intoxicated person finds everyone in there path attractive. "Mom Goggle" is similar. It effect those who nurture small children. We, the nurturers, find everything the child does absolutely WONDERFUL! You may have also heard of" P.I.G." {Parent Identified Genius}, possibly a heightened form of the Goggle Syndrome.  LOL!

As a crafter I think my kids art work is the best in the world. So today I shall succumb to the syndrome and show off some of my Mother's Day gifts.

 

I think her spelling is cute! {I know it's wrong.}

 

Aren't they wonderful! Two of my kids can't find what they made me so I am holding my applause...

I would love to see your kids art work leave a comment and a link so I may Ooh and Awwwwe at your little ones work. Please and Thank you!

Happy Krafting, Shaz

Granny's apron

Hey all,

I still don't have a camera cord. I have contacted Fuji and the are out of stock right now. I hope I can get one soon... Here is a card for a few challenges.

Cinema Saturday Creative Challenge #75 - Oklahoma

I used this Challenge for most of the inspiration!

I had a vision of a granny's apron. I used gingham paper to fold a fan and trimmed it with lace, pearls and twill ribbon. I didn't tie a bow because I thought this knot would suit a granny making jam much better. All perfect elements of a souther granny. I also used the sentiment from a PCD stamp set. I thought it was the perfect quote for a souther granny to say: You're Dandy.

I flipped the sketch at Laura's Sketch 50 

Monochromatic card, I used Core'dinations paper and sanded it for a weathered look.

And last but by far not least!

Piled it on with Challenge #15 "Spring"

Clueless!

Hey all, I have been working on sprucing up the blog. I wanted something BRIGHT! So I took a jump at personalizing the Kraft Nook blog. {Do you like?}

I would like to make it more unique but I had to start somewhere.

I also spent a few hours away from the computer to do some real Krafting. I just loved the Sketch over at Everything but the Kitchen Sink Challenge and the Movie Clueless was Cinema Saturdays Feature film. {LOL What a funny movie!} One of the things this movie embraces is Fashion. It is very obvious with some of the hats and accessories the characters wear. Of course this meant I could Pile It On with the flower challenge too.

Buy it: Lovely Hat {$2} 

I am very pleased with the way this hat looks. I cut it free-hand. This card would be perfect for Easter or Mother's day.

Happy Krafting!
