Posts from the Past Day 2

This was another popular project on the blog in the past: 

Welcome to our blog hop!

This is your first stop!  Thanks for coming by!

This was my first diaper cake.  I actually found it to be far more simple then I expected.  The thing that took the longest was figuring out what to put in the center.  I used 20 oz coke bottles in the end :)

Thanks for visiting!

Project from the past Day 1

I apologize in advance for being heavy in pics for this post.  This thing is hard to photograph!

I went through the stats on my former posts and this post has been a popular one.  Here is a another post with a tutorial on making the boxes.

My intention with this explosion box is to give it to my daughter with her birthday gift. Part of me wants to add more to the box and part of me wants to leave it as is.  Decisions decisions.

The animals are all cute with Create A Critter and so are the words in the center.  I used one of my punches for the edging on the cover of the box, I didn't like my first cover at all!  The paper is all from a K&Company pack... and I LOVE it!!!  My sister and I worked on this together-  You can check out her  blog at Crafty Gator.

 

My blog feels.... neglected...

... and we just can't have that!  Lately I have had so much going on that getting pictures on my blog hasn't been a priority.  I MISS IT!  So, this week I am reposting some of the projects that have been favorites of people stopping by!  Then next week be prepared to see some fun new projects!

This week you won't see new projects because I am sitting here looking at this for the week-

Certified Scrapbook University Instructor

I finished my certification to begin teaching a 4 week scrapbooking class.  I am very excited about this new adventure!  I am offering my first classes in May.  Has anyone taught or taken these before? I would love to hear from you!

Ok blogger friends... how many of you at one time or another have obsessed over your blogger stats?  Yeah, me neither wink wink.  Funny thing is that my most popular post of all time was a bulletin board I did for my classroom.  So why not start a teaching blog, I mean really there aren't enough out there already.  If anything I am hoping it holds me accountable to trying new things just like this blog has done.  So if you want to follow me you can check me out Kraziness in Kindergarten.  If you have no desire to follow it you can just lie to me and tell me I am wonderful anyway hehe. 

See you there, maybe ;)

Cricut Cake and a Pinterest Easter

I finally broke my Cricut Cake out of the box.  I need to actually learn how to bake and frost a cake though.  The stupid thing was falling apart as soon as I took it out of the pan.  I tried to use frosting to "glue" it back together... yeah, not so good ;)

Anyway, we kept it simple.  We were crunched for time and had never done it.  Here is what my 8 year old decided on and I think it is cute :)!

 The kids made "carrots" and put them in a planter :)

 We found this super cute bunny on Pinterest.  It was REALLY easy to make and we had so much fun with it!  Here is where you can find the recipe!

 The kids saw these bird's nests on Pinterest so my 8 and 10 year old made them up :)

Quick and Simple Birthday Card

Today I am posting a very simple birthday card that we used with a gift for a party today :)  I LOVE embossing it dresses everything up!
