Cruise Projects

I thought I would share a few of the projects we made on our cruise. ClubScrap comes up with the greatest projects and teaches you very 'out of the box' type projects, always seems like they are on the leading edge of new techniques and project ideas...

This particular project is a fold box. When the box opens there is 3 drawers...it is a very snazzy project. Very fun and unique.

Thanks for looking. DebDuzScrappin

Isn't this just the cutest??


I love all the carved fruits and fruit displays on the ship - this one I knew would be a favorite of my son's - whom loves monkeys... The crew on that ship were amazing and so creative, just blows my mind, how fun to spend your time carving fruit and ice and folding cute animal towels!!!

They were a big hit, the kids at school loved them!!

I think I am ready....Mickey Birthday



Welp I been running like a monkey to get the house fairly clean, decorated, and ready for my youngest boys' birthday party today!!

He chose Mickey mouse since there will be a 'girl' at his party and didn't want to have a fully boy themed party - what a sweetie huh? Sounds like it will be a fairly quiet affair...one of the boys' can't make it, another didn't RSVP (so who knows if he will show or not), so that leaves us with only 2 guests at this point. But it is a all day/night party - the girl won't spend the night but the one boy might assuming he is up for it...

I put together a small scavenger hunt, a couple other fairly lame games - not too creative in that arena...the table is decorated. The cake turned out pretty cute. The cake is carrot - my family is big on carrot cake - at least if you are going to eat cake - you get a few veggies in there, right???

I ran errands all morning to get ready for next weekend and hit a few yard sales, picked up a couple of books and miscellaneous stuff I probably don't really *need*...

Here is the cake pics!

Cards - Abstract Art inspired

This is a fairly simple technique.

Supplies
*Rubberstamps
*Black ink
*Sharpies
*Cardstock

1. Stamp a large focal image on white cardstock.

2. Use a ruler and draw one line up and down, and one line left and right, in order to divide the image into 4 sections.

3. Choose 8 colors of sharpies and color the partial image within one section one color, and the area around that image section another color. Repeat for all sections.

4 Mat onto cardstock and card back.

Thanks for looking.

Cards - Piet Mondrian - Variation Red, Blue, Yellow



So on these samples, instead of drawing my lines completely to the end of the paper, I varied the length of the lines - I think this is a very nice variation on it.
