Chore Chart

This is the chore chart I came up with. I used my Cricut to cut out the words with contact paper and stuck them on top and then chose some scrapbook paper for underneath. I used a decorative scissor to do the wavy pattern and then a small hole punch to make the holes.

I think it turned out really cute. My daughter wanted to help write her chores.

I Heart Faces Challenge - Beautiful Eyes

 Here is my entry in this weeks I Heart Faces photo challenge.  (Click on the picture to see it much clearer.)  I got this picture of my son after church one day.  He is wearing a teal shirt and it brought the blue in his eyes out so well.  I had so many compliments about his suit all day so I had to capture it.  Isn't he so handsome?

My FIL's Artwork

My Father-in-law is amazing with wood and this is what he made for his office. It is huge. It's probably a couple of feet wide.
Do you see all the grooves and paint that he used?

Chore Chart

I decided I needed a chore chart for my kids to help them remember what they need to do. Here is what I came up with.
I took a frame and used scrapbook paper underneath. Then I used my SCAL program to design the names and then cut them out on my Cricut.
I think it turned out so cute!

Menu Board

 

So, I have a really hard time figuring out what to make for dinner.  My husband has been the cook for over 8 years and now is wanting me to start making dinners.  It's kind of hard and I didn't think it would be.  Well, I have been trying to figure out what would help me make it easier and I think I have found it. 

At first I thought I would just make a framed week menu but I would've had to write in the recipes and I think I would forget to use it.  

This is the best idea.  I found some really good tutorials.

A Girl And A Glue Gun has a great tutorial.  She also has another post with pictures of finished ones.  Really cute!

Ucreate has a good tutorial too.  Based off of AGAAGG's tutorial with some helpful hints and some do's and dont's!

If you are looking for the clear calendar sheets they have a pack of 16 for $5 over at Oriental Trading Co.

Get some gals together and make your own. 

I Heart Faces Challenge - May Flowers

 

This week is a little different on I Heart Faces.  This week we didn't need a face in the picture and it's not being judged.  Just for fun.  I had actually taken this picture not too long ago and with some slight processing it turned out really pretty.  I didn't have to do much because SOOC it was almost perfect.
