Printable Scrapbook Paper Pink Roses On Teal

I recently made some beautiful roses scrapbook paper to put in some frames I am selling in my etsy store.

I thought all of you crafty people when I made these for hubbies etsy store. I was thinking you might be able to do something fun with them. I had both  8 1/2"  x 11" and the 12" x 12" but due to so many out there stealing and selling my graphics I had to pull them as with many of my free graphics. However they are still available at my little stsy store for a minimal price.

Free Easter Toy Printable

Its been a long time since I last posted. As some of you already know, I lost my youngest son on Dec 15th a few years back. His birthday is Feb 12th and some years I have a harder time dealing with it than others. This year was one of those years that I just needed to spend time with family with no distractions. My two little grand babies help a lot :)) Anyway I am sorry but I am back and I have a fun free Easter toy for you today!

Free Printable 2015 and 2016 Victorian Desk Calendar

I thought it was time to make something fun for me!... and I know it is a little late for a calendar so I made one for next year too. Make one for yourself now and save the 2016 calendar to make for Christmas gifts. Trust me it is coming faster than you think :)) I printed mine on a legal size paper but you can cut it up and print it in three sections too. Follow the directions in my basic theater instructions to mount it on lightweight cardboard... like cereal box thickness. The link is in my quick links on the right hand side bar.

Elf Yourself Puppets Free Templates Patterns and Printable

One more post before Christmas. I did not plan this one but I wanted to do some "Elf Yourselves" with my grand kids. I looked for some free patterns but I did not find any really good ones, so I decided to make some. We had so much fun making memories! The three year old did need a little more help but he still had a blast! It is almost Christmas so tell your friends so they don't miss out of this fun activity with there little ones.

 

Aren't they cute!

I did not want to just print them to save on ink, these have so much color! I think the card stock looks better anyway. However we did print the hands, ears and faces. 

There are three full sheets to this set. The finished elf is about 20 inches tall. One sheet is the printable hands and ears and they should be printed on card stock. Then you will need to take a picture of your child and that should be printed on card stock as well. 

Then there are two sheets of patterns. Just print these on standard copy paper and use repositional glue to adhere them to colored card stock. Cut them out and peel off the patterns. To do the stockings, I just cut strips of red with my paper cutter, glued them across both legs and then trimmed the stripes off to the edge of the legs. We then added glitter glue to jazz them up! 

Feel free to pin the picture of the boys above but please do not pin the pattern download or the printable hands and ears. I would like everyone to stop by here to download them so they don't miss the instructions and all my other fun free downloads.

Enjoy!

DIY Book Page Poinsettias Pattern And Tutorial

I have been making some Christmas crafts myself too! along with being busy making some new ornaments, I needed something for the top of the tree. I decided I wanted to make some book page poinsettias to match the new book page honeycomb ornaments but every pattern that I found had perfect little petals and natural poinsettias just don't look like that...so I just made one.

Even though a natural poinsettia doesn't have book page print on them I still wanted them to have a natural shape :))

Once it was completed I sprayed it with alcohol ink to give it an aged look. I liked it so well that I am doing some not just for the top but for the whole tree. I also tried one in red but I think I like the first one the best. I still have to get some beads to go in the centers. I will put them on a wire so they can just be stuck in the center. That way they can be removed so that they can be folded flat for storage. They are fast and easy and will keep from year to year... so go ahead and make a bunch! 

Pattern and Instructions are available in my little etsy store
