Day 19 - Daily Challenge - Granduation

My daughter is an amazing woman and graduating with a duel masters in business and bio-engineering. Here is the card I made for my mother to give her for graduation.  I got the idea off of Pinterest https://www.pinterest.com/pin/262264378272791576/

Day 18 - Daily Challenge - Cactus

I took this photo at Meijer Garden last fall in Michigan.  I have taken photos like this in Idaho in the outdoors, close up on cactus but this one has become one of my favorites.

Day 17 - Daily Challenge -Ferrero Rocher teacup

I made these for my co-workers for Christmas. The hold a Ferrero Rocher chocolate.  I mostly followed this video listed here but also made some small alterations. There are several videos on doing them.  I had a pre-made flower I put on it.  The leaves are from the bird punch by Stampin Up. I think the circle and scalloped circle are also made with Stampin Up supplies.

Day 16 - Daily Challenge - Jewelry

Late last fall, I was able to teach the young women at my church how to make bracelets.  The first bracelet took a long time but I then challenged then to make a second in 20 minutes. One of the girls didn't want a second but the leader of the girls and the two others, beat the time and went home with 2 bracelets.

Day 15 - Daily Challenge - Flowery Birthday

I am still working on the large birthday cards for work. I will be working at it all year I think.  Here is another.

The background was a lovely paper. Some of the flower centers are holes in the paper letting the background show through. The blue, green and orange flowers are cut with a die from Stampin Up. The happy birthday is also cut with a Stampin Up die. 

Day 14 - Daily Challenge - Photo

This is a photo I took with my phone at the Japanese garden within Meijer Gardens last fall. I love taking these close up photos.

Day 13 - Daily Challenge Bling Head

What do you think of this? It is a Styrofoam head covered in rhinestones.  It is a little freaky.

It was a request from a friend at work who wants it to hold this red hat. It's a hat the safety committee wheres in case of an emergency so we know who is there to help. Now I am thinking about covering a whole manikin in rhinestones.
