I really love the zipper items she makes. It's pretty cool. My favorite is the black zipper bracelt and zipper ruffle headband.

Easter Gift--Crystal

Can you guess what I got for Easter this year? I finally got a Cricut. YEAH!! I've been wanting one forever. Adam and Kenna got me one for Easter. I have already used it. I made an Easter card for one of Kenna's grandparents. Next I'll be making some cards for other grandparents too. I'm so excited. I can't wait to use it all the time. I'll have to take some pictures of my projects for my blog.

Party Weekend--Crystal

This weekend I had two birthday parties to make cakes for.

First was for my nephew. I did a train cake. The cake was chocolate with buttercreme icing.

The second one was for my mother in law's 5oth suprise birthday. I did a yellow cake with chocolate frosting, fondant daisies and leave, and chocolate dipped strawberries.

They turned out great.

Flowers--Crystal

I found a website that did a whole month of different ways of making crafty flowers. Here's the link to the website's flowers. They are way cute. I will definitely be making some for sure. You could make some of these and put a pin on the back to pin to a necklace, bag, or as a broach. You could also put a hair clip on the back to put in your hair or your daughter's hair.

I also found this awesome necklace I want to make which also has some very cute flowers to make.

I will post some pics of the ones I make after I make them. Look for updates occasionally.

Also I found this organizer on a craft website and I want to do something very similar. Very cute. One day it will get done, I hope.

Knitting Bag/Purse--Crystal

I will be making this bag. I have two different fabric styles I'll be trying. They will be birthday presents for family. I'm starting now to give me something to do while off from school.
