Crafts and babies

The latest craft we have been working on is an adapted version of the "cookie sheet calendar"
found here at http://wonderfullywhimsy.blogspot.com/
Check out her blog she has a lot of cute ideas, especially if you love paper like I do. This project turned out to be a little more work than we expected, mainly because we decided to go all out. Luckily next time when I do another one of these babies I will have my new Klic-n-Kut die cutter that I just ordered (yes I am so excited about this). So these will be easy peasy. Stephanie's is almost done and looking super cute and Leah's is done but forgot to take picture's. 4 crafters and 3 babies is fun and crazy for sure. We bought all our frames to redo at DI and the metal sheets from Home Depot. If you want the dimensions for all the chip board pieces just email me at emilyandjdee@gmail.com and I can give them to you or go wonderfullywhimsy if you are making one on a cookie sheet.
This one I made for my mom to replace her Geese wooden one circa 1990's, haha

This is Natalie's finished project we worked on minus she has to put up her picture

Some of the extra holiday's and months stored on the back



This is Bentley's bow holder Lean and I surprised Nat with, the picture doesn't do it justice for how cute it is
This is what the babies did while we crafted, oh and cried some when ever Harlee would talk which was quite funny

Cute crafts! I wanna start doing them with you when I move back! You might have to teach me a little though cause I'm not too crafty. :) Can't wait to move home and hang out, and have our baby boys be friends! Love ya!
