Project Sixty-one


Welcome Back!!

I have been is such a major funk for awhile. I am forcing myself to get out of it. I miss my crafting.
SO to start off I recently held my daughters birthday. We had a Minnie and Mickey Theme for the party. SO I made all the decorations. So the first thing I am going to show you were the table decorations I made for the main tables food, cake, and presents and goody bag tables. I made a total of 4 of these.




I started with a plastic red pot bought at Wal-Mart.
I then took a 1 inch whole punch to white label paper and cut out the polka dots and put them on.

I painted an 4 inch Styrofoam ball and 2 3 inch Styrofoam ball black.
I used popsicle sticks to adhere the ears to the main party of the Mickey Icon. I used an 1 inch doll rod and painted it black also.

The Minnie and Mickey are from Mickey and Friends Cartridge.
I cut both images at 5 inches. All paper was Stampin Up.
I used a small paper hole punch to make Minnie's polka dots for her dress and bow.
I used popsicle sticks to hold in place painted black.

I used Plaster of Paris in the bottom of the pots for weight, so they wouldn't blow over.
When it was almost dry I inserted the Icon, Mickey and Minnie.
I then added white crinkled paper to the top.  

Thanks for looking!
Have a great day

Project Fifty-eight and Ink it Pink Challenge 6

Hello and thanks for stopping in. The whole family had the flu last week. Which is why I was missing in action. Thanks to rest and God we are all feeling better.

So I missed a few challenges these past two weeks, which drives me nuts because I have so much fun doing them. For me, a major Disney lover, I love getting Disney into other people's challenges. Plus it challenges me so much.

OK so here is some personal stuff .... if you want to skip to the card scroll down.
OK so my family has been planning to move to the Orlando area of Florida. We were planning this when we lived in North Carolina. Some other family scares and issues we had to make a very fast move to Fort Lauderdale Florida this past February. Well our dream is finally coming into the light. We are going up next weekend to look for a place to live. YES that is right I am going to be living 30 minutes or so from WALT DISNEY WORLD!!! I am so happy. The rest of my family is even more happy. It seems I take all my vacations to Disney. With Disney so close I might go a on a real vacation and visit some of my family. The funny thing my husband and I both made the comment when someone mentioned a "real" vacation, we thought ohhh Disneyland or plan for Disneyland Paris. Can you tell we love DISNEY!

OK on to my Project
