Photo Suncatchers

I made these awhile ago. They are beautiful and I bought the stuff to make another one to hang in the other window in my kitchen. They were a little tricky at first, but once I got the hang of it (like which side of the paper to print on) it was easy.

Some tips: you can find clear acrylic panels that are 6x6 at Hobby Lobby. They are in the scrapbooking section and are actually meant to be used as covers for custom made acrylic albums and are made by Bind It All. They come 2 in a pack. I used "thumbs up" paper clips because I thought they would look alot better. Have fun, these are addicting to make!!!

Here is the link to the tutorial:

Photo Keychains

I have been working on these for the past few days. These would make a great gift or stocking stuffer. I can't stop looking at them, I just love anything unique!!

PHOTO KEYCHAINS
2 keytag keychains
1 sheet of scrapbook paper
letter stickers
resized photos
letter beads
glue sticks
Use the card that comes inside the keytags as a template to cut out two pieces of scrapbook paper. Glue them together with wrong sides together. Place letter sticker on one end of scrapbook paper.
Resize two photos to about 1"x1" (you could also use index prints) Print, cut out and use glue stick to glue photos to scrapbook paper (one on each side) Insert paper into keytag. Use letter beads to spell out name or words and put them on ball keychain that came with keytags and there you have it!!!
I got this idea from the book Memories in Miniature by Pamela Frye Hauer (great book)
I made one for myself, my sil and my mom. (sorry the pictures didn't turn out very well)

Suppose I'll bet started

In this blog, I would like to share just a lil bit of everything about our lives. I would like to share stories, pictures and anything else I can think of. I like to craft so I'll share some of those as well. I also like photography, so be prepared for that. I have a 1 year old son and will be talking alot about him also.
