Birthday Hat - My dad's 50th!

Today was my dad's 50th birthday. I am so happy that I was able to spend they day with him and celebrate.  My mom and dad were parents when they needed to be and now they play a different role. They are 2 of my closest friends. They have taught me everything I know and have sacrificed everything for my brother and me. I have my dad's humor, knees, nose, and feet. So many inside jokes. I was never a "daddy, can I have your credit card?" daughter. I was the cuddle up next to him and watch an old movie, begging for bedtime stories about when he was a kid, and a "daddy, I love you" daughter. As I sit here with tears in my eyes, I am so thankful to have him in my life.

Here is the hat I made him for his special day. I knew that no matter what, even if I have to glue it to his head, he was going to wear this hat with a smile. =)
Pin It

There is that smile!!
I love you Daddy! <3

Minnie Mouse Cake Topper

Minnie Mouse is a popular gal these days! I guess some things never change. I remember my Minnie Mouse themed birthday party. My brother and I both have birthdays in July so we always had to split the cake. Half his theme and half mine. Ah, the memories. 

Back to why your here. I made this cake topper for a little ones 1st birthday. Her cake will look like Minnie Mouse's body and the topper will of course be her head. So cute. Sometimes I wonder how cakes ever get eaten when they are too cute!

Fishing Gift Card Holder


My husband is a huge, and I mean HUGE fisherman. The amount of money my supplies cost doesn't even begin to touch the amount his cost!!! Anyway, he really wanted to thank a fishing buddy for a taking him out a few times on his boat to fish. They talk all the time on the phone. They are like 2 little girls and they crack me up. His friend recommended a restaurant to us that he just raved about. We went and now my husband is raving about it. We got his buddy a gift card to the restaurant to let him know how much my husband appreciates everything he has done for him. 

This is the paper I used from my Hand sanitizer and Distress Ink Experiment if you would like to see how the background was made. 

I used a small fishing hook, brad and fishing line to keep the gift card holder closed until time to open. Don't worry. I cut off the sharp end and dulled the tip out. =)

They mostly fish for Bass so I had picked up a Bass stamp awhile ago. I knew it would come in handy!

The inside before the gift card is in place.

Again, I used a hook and put it through the fish's mouth. A polymer knot was even tied to the hook with fishing line by none other than yours truly...me (I do a little fishing as well (= ).


I used some waves that I made for another project a while back that I didn't end up using. It worked out great for the pocket the gift card fits into. YAY!!

The holder with the gift card now in place.

Gift Card Envelope

My husband's cousin and his fiancĂ© are getting married New Year's Eve. I checked out their registry and when I went to the store they had almost nothing. I was able to purchase a few of the items and felt I needed to include more. I went with a gift card. 

While I was blog hopping the other day, I came across this neat idea of using a tag as a money holder. I found it at  Studio 490. I won't be using money so I did need to alter the tag to fit the gift card. I thought it was a great idea and definitely what I needed to add a little something extra to their special day. You can check out the blog for instructions. If you have any questions regarding the alterations I made feel free to ask! 

Merry Christmas Everyone!!

Paper Snowflake

My husband's dental school clinic decided to do a snowflake contest. All the snowflakes are hung from the ceiling at the clinic. Naturally he asked me to help him out seeing that he is greatly talented in the paper crafting department. He was a big help....yeah right!! LOL He picked out the colors and that is about it. =) I do hope he wins. 


 The "R" stands for Rembrandt which is the clinic's name.

The Backside

 Merry Christmas!!
