Finally some things to post!!!

Hi to all!!! I hope you are all having good days and have found some time to be creative. I have slowly been finding my groove and slowly completing projects I had long ago started. Gonna make a few posts here today just to break things up a little bit.... today was all about alterations.
Of all these projects not one of them was started today..... no sir, they were all started months ago and have been waiting for me to brave putting up with the cricut long enough to cut my words and images. I love my cricut, but sometimes it's so much of a pain in the butt that I dred using it, but that was NOT the case today :)

The following I have made to put in my Scrap Room.... The Cherry Pit :) Another wooden block sign, with an inspirational scrappy saying. This one is a bit different than ones I have made previously as I used a few different paint colors instead of sticking with all black. I wasn't sure at first how it was going to turn out, but in the end I really like the look.
This is a baking sheet I altered in to a maganetic board. Titled for the Cherry Pit, and using the same coordinating papers as the block sign. The maganets I made by cutting the tails off of brads and gluing on a maganet in their place, this was pretty fun and simple to make.
This sign I made to put in my kitchen to help tie in all the colors I've got going on in there. I painted a 12x15 canvas in the color blocking you see here, then used my Cricut along with Sure Cuts A Lot (SCAL) to cut my words and the mugs. I used multiple fonts as I like the look of mixed media. Such a fun and inexpensive project to make.
Lastly I finished up these signs I had started to make to hang in my bathroom. Not the most traditional saying to use for home decor, but it tickles my sense of humor, besides I really wanted something that would "match" these cute toilet paper rolls. :) I really like how these turned out and how they look hanging in the bathroom.



As far as finished altered projects this is it for now. I have one more thing in the works but it is going to take a bit more time to complete. I hope to get it done and posted soon as I cannot wait to show it off!!!! ;)

Ok, off to set up my next entry, just a few pages and cards I have made lately.

Happy Scrappin'
