7yo nephew Mother's Day Card




I've been crafting with my nephew since he's known how to hold a crayon so since he was about 2 or 3. And he still loves crafting and making stuff. Today he stayed over and I took him to the pool and then after he ate and took a shower we made a mother's day card each. He wanted to learn how to color with the greeting farm stamps with the odorless mineral spirits and colored pencils so I taught him and was next to him the whole time so he wouldn't spill or get it on his hands. But he's a quick learner and I'm surprised and how nice his coloring came out and his card! I took some candid pictures of him and one of his card!TFL!

Messy Kitchen-What's cookin' card


I wanted to make a what's coookin card and as I was making I was thinking whenever I cook(well I don't really cook but bake) so whenever I bake something like a cake or brownies it's kind of like crafting there's a mess! I have a ton of things to wash, there's icing on the counter and probably some on my shirt. So I made it a messy kitchen so it can be a bit more realistic. I even put some "icing"(puffy paint) on her apron TFL!

Cricut Carts:
From my Kitchen(Refrigerator)

Greeting Farm Stamp Cheeky Cherry Pie(Girl)

Vintage Beach LO of my great grandparents!


Recently my grandma gave away all of the pictures she had to family members and lucky me I had first dibs.So one of the pictures that I absolutely adore is this picture of my great grandparents in Cuba. I never met them being that they passed away before I was born but this picture really gives me an insight into how they were. The picture shows an air of confidence between them and I wanted to make a layout with the picture rather than just stick in a photo album. This was a toughie for me because I had to incorporate vintage and a beach theme into one layout with the items I already had. But with some K&Co Paper, my Cricut, some of my great grandma's lace and trim(which my grandma gave me as well) and one of my mom's crochet flower and I made it! The title is in Spanish being that it is in Cuba it says"The Beach in the 50s". TFL!
Materials:
Cricut Carts
Martha Stewart Elegant Cake Art(Bottom border)
Sesame Street Seasons(Sun)
Ashlyn's Alphabet(Title)
Recollections Flowers(Blue Flowers)
Lace and trim are my great grandmother's who used to sew dresses
