As promised I want to show off my latest make. I have seen wood blocks with saying on them all over blogging and facebook. There are some really great one out there. I knew I wanted to make my version of this fun hobby, so here it is.
As you can see I staggered the sizes and painted them "Appletini" green. I always use Behr Ultra. It is great paint and also has the primer in the paint so I don't have to worry about priming anything. It's pretty darn thick and doesn't chip.
I found one of my favorite paper companies in my stach - Doodlebug. They always have the cutes paper and Gobble just calls for cute and fun. Modge Podge and distressed the paper onto the blocks. Pulled out the cricut machine and printed the lettering. Glued and more modge podge to seal the deal.
I posted them on to my facebook page and 4 groups I belong to and dang it sold with in minutes. I only charged $10 well worth the deal. I also recived orders for two more so I've got to get back to work.
Just wanted to stop and let the paint dry and show it off.
A little bit of this, a little bit of that but always a whole lotta craftin.

So Thankful!
Happy Veteran's Day and Thank You to all that have served & given their lives to make our country free.
Now I wanted to show off a Thanks Giving banner I made last year. My girlfriend and I made them, she still is working on hers. LOL
Of course I used my sizixx big shot and cut out using my rosette die. The are so much fun to make.

Strung it up with some jute and displayed it right over in the middle of the living room.
No time to chat anymore, sorry. Finishing up on my Thanksgiving project.

Christmas frames
So is everyone ready for the weekend. That means two days of crafting and getting those last of your fall crafts out of the way. I have one project on my table right now that I'm trying to get finished up. It should be done by the end of this weekend and I hope to show it off next week to you.
For now I have a few Christmas Deco frames I made. The first two are three little frames sets.
I love using scrabble tiles anyway I can. So much fun. These are very little frames, only 3.5 x 3.5, but so perfect for a table top decoration.
These are a little bit bigger..4.5 x 3.5. The lettering is really glittery, so are the little Christmas flowers. I'm afraid you can't see the full effect in the picture.
This one's a normal 4x6 frame. I figure you can leave it as is or put your own family picture in it. Maybe that snow day with a crazy snowball fight. Ha ha.. that would be fun.
Well, anyway all of these are available at my Etsy shop. Stop by and check out all my frames. They make great gifts. https://www.etsy.com/shop/BigMammascraftin
