Easter Party Invitation

Just spent a wonderful spring weekend in Eastern Washington with family.  I guess you know you live on the West side of WA when your son gets ultra excited that the sunshine was out! Several times we heard, "Mom! Dad! Look! The sunshine is out!"  I think we've adjusted pretty well to the weather of the Pacific Northwest, but boy do I see why my family eventually left Western Washington and moved to the sunny side! But no complaints here- I love trees! 

With all that said, I am now officially feeling spring! Yay!

Here's a little Spring project I put together for our church's Easter activity.  Spring colors are so fun to work with!

The first font I used is Sunshine Poppy found on Dafont and click here to see more from this generous and talented artist! She's got some very cute goodies!

The second font is Smiley Monster from Kevin & Amanda.  LOVE their site!

You are my sunshine print

On a whim while on our Mommy-daughter "date" this evening at our only local super store, Wal-Mart, (and by local I mean a 20 minute drive- have I mentioned I live in the boonies!?) we bought an adorable new spring quilt for Hallie's bed. Despite all of my attempts at persuasion to get her to pick the one I originally spotted, she insisted on the "girly" quilt which consisted of pink, green, orange, and yellow. Luckily it fit in with the color scheme I was going for. So with another project for her bed in the works, this quilt was the extra push I needed to really get her room done started.

She has no artwork in her room at this point and while sitting here this evening I came up with a fun idea. And now have 6 variations which I can't decide between! So the 2 of you :) who actually read this blog consistently (hi!) any thoughts? Which print is your fav?

3-D Photo Cards

What?! You've already moved on to St. Patty's day? Easter? Well I'm still stuck on Valentine's Day. :)

I discovered the brilliance of 3-D cards at Craft-O-Maniac which she found here.  And the "snickers" idea Jen shared at Craft-O-Maniac was brilliant as well.  And since we needed fun easy Valentine's we decided to do some of our own.  Here's our versions...

The kids had a great time posing for the pictures and they were seriously SO easy! Took pictures, edited on picnik, sent to Costco, picked up 2 hours later, candy bought, candy glued and tucked.  So simple!

Children's Train Wall Art

To say my son LOVES trains is a serious understatement.  His life revolves around them.  Here's my attempt at some digital artwork for his room. 

I love it! It's fun, whimsical, and just what I pictured!

More Letter Art

Speaking of Letter Art, my sister and I were feeling a little nutty and created this beauty for my dad's upcoming birthday. Totally 100% appropriate for my dad!  We thought we were pretty hilarious, the hubby not so much.  Deep down he knows he loves it :) At least he better because this will be his I-hate-commericalized-Valentine's-Day-so-we-small-gift-each-other-just-before-Valentine's-Day-Gift! I had them printed out at costco on a 5x7 photo and will frame it- they'll make a great classy, but not classy, fun decor item for the bathroom, office, or man cave. :)

And please feel free to download one for yourself or the goofball in your fam! Just right click and save the file. Enjoy!

Family Letter Art

I instantly fell in love with this project by Amy of My 3 Monsters found on a guest post at Under the Table and Dreaming. 

So a visit from my sister and several months later, I finally completed mine.  They are SO fun! Leo Reynold's photostream is nothing short of amazing.  I could have, oh wait I DID, spend hours browsing through the vast array of photos.  And how generous of him to share his photographs. (Be sure to visit the copyright info if using his photos, basically you are free to share and remix the work under the following conditions... Attribution, non-commerical, and share alike!)

Absolutely, positively LOVE it!!! I just ordered it as a 16x20 canvas and can't wait until it shows up! Hooray!
