Gnome in the night

Another transparency I made. This one is partly copied from one on pinterest. I can't link back to it though because it's no longer there. Anyway these are pretty easy to make. I just drew the picture on white paper and then used a paper knife to cut then out over the black card stock. Then I used scissors to cut out kite paper that I layered on the back with stick glue. So this idea came from someone else's but switched the little boy to a gnome.

Mouse in his house

I made this yesterday with card stock an kite paper. I've been pinning a bunch of these transparencies and decided to give it a try.

Felt board

I have finally made a felt board. I found an easy way to make it. I bought a canvas board and staple gunned felt to it.
It was easy! Over the last year I've collected a bunch of felt pieces from swaps I'll be back to post them.

Jalapeño cupcakes

For my aunts birthday she requested jalapeño cupcakes with tomato frosting. Who knew they would be so good?

Acorn mushrooms

K made these sweet little acorn mushrooms today. We got the idea from the blog twig and toadstool. First we painted them and then he glued the acorn back in the top, but upside down.

Sewing a bunny

K got the sewing bug again and decided to make a bunny. He drew it, designed it, sewed it, and stuffed it. I was so surprised he stuck with the project all the way through. Even sweeter... He made it for his brother. :)

Canning tomatoes

My mom and I just processed two huge boxes of organic heritage tomatoes. We got a great deal on them at a little farm. We dehydrated a big chunk of them and then canned the rest. We also were able to pick 12 pints of raspberries at the farm and froze most of those.
