Happy belated Birthday to Dawn


Good morning all! We have survived the Blizzard of 2013 up here in the North!  Lots of snow and lots of shoveling, but we did it.

Last week was Dawn's birthday and I wanted to make something homemade and creative for her, because she is always coming up with super creative things for us!!  So I remembered a tile post she had posted a while back and I thought I can do that.  I creeped on her FB page and picked out 8 pictures and then I followed her directions (which were awesome)!

" I got the tumbler tiles at Home Depot for about $4 for a pack of 8. They are just shy of 4" x 4". I printed the pics out at 3.5" x 3.5" after creating an edge on them in Photoshop Elements. I put a rub-on word on each of them, attached them to the tiles (after dusting them off) with a thin layer of Mod Podge and then applied 3 coats of Mod Podge (matte finish) to each, letting each layer dry before adding the next. I cut squares of cork for the bottoms to protect surfaces that they are on because they are very rough and heavy. They still need to be sprayed with 3-5 coats of acrylic sealer to make them completely water proof"

I love the one od Dawn when she and her siblings were little. She loved the gift!!

Dawn's Bday card

Here is a cute little card I made for Dawn for her birthday. There seems to be a few questions about who Dawn is. For those of you who don't know please read the sidebar.

I made this card using the Paisley Cartridge for the Owl (I do love her, she is so cute). Page 42 cut at 3.5 inches. I cut out all her little parts as well. I used the Branch cuttle bug folder on the black piece of paper. The stamp is from StampinUp! and I used the circle punch to punch it out. Some ribbon and buttons from my stash and done.

Have a wonderful crafty weekend!!!
