Have you ever had a bad craft day? Well, I had one today and I have to tell you, it's not so much fun. This post will make you laugh and cry...from laughter!<br />
<br />
I made this super cute bracelet last night!<br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">On to craft project number two, a banner for Father's Day! It's Keith's first Father's Day and I wanted to make it really special! I thought an "I love Daddy" banner would be perfect! Then I had a stroke of genius! I thought, "Why don't I make this two-sided?" I decided to put I "heart" Daddy on one side and Freedom on the other. I "heart" Daddy can hang until Father's Day and Freedom could be displayed for the rest of June and early July. Holy cow! What a great idea! See take a look.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

My stroke of genius turned into a very, ugly blond moment. :) Freedom turned into Modeerf...not really a patriotic word. When you put the start of one word on the back of the start of the second word (does that make sense), it doesn't work out so well. :) I can laugh about it...now.<br />

I will definitely attempt the two-sided banner again because it is pretty fantastic. I'll just be more careful next time! My day wasn't a total bust. The I "heart" Daddy banner turned out perfect and I learned a GREAT lesson! :) LOL!<br />

I cannot believe that one year ago today I wrote my first post! I'm getting all nostalgic! :) I know many of you did not know me way back when so I thought it would be fun to show you how it all began! :)<br />
<br />
If you click on the second pic, you can see what Crafts & Sutch used to look like. :) <br />

Well, here I am! I'm so excited to make my very first post to my Crafts & Sutch blog. I've been truly inspired by so many crafty women in my life, and just recently discovered the craft blog world. Wow! I want to be a part of it too! :)<br />
<br />
My first post has been a labor of love and has taught be sometimes Plan B is way better than Plan A. This past year I started to work from home and I needed a space that I wouldn't mind spending a lot of time in. I decided to paint a mural on one wall. I'm not an artist, just someone with a crafty bone and who isn't afraid to try something new.<br />
<br />
I found an image on Google images of some modern flower silhouettes. I came up with my color scheme, and printed out my image. I borrowed a projector from my mom and traced the image on my wall (you could rent a projector from a teacher supply store or ask a teacher friend). I painted it with your normal, run of the mill craft paint and simply filled in the lines! Easy peasy!<br />
<br />
As soon as I painted the swirls, I knew they were way too busy and needed a softer appearance. I took the wall paint and dry brushed over the swirls to give them a distressed finish (Plan B).<br />
<br />

The total cost for this project was $6.97 ($2.98 for three bottles of craft paint and 3.99 for some paint brushes)! Not too shabby for a work of art!<br />
<br />
Have a wonderful three day weekend, Friends! <br />

I chose the color <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: blue;">BLUE</span></b></span> because it screams <span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: blue;">SUMMER</span></b></span> to me...blue skies, cool pools, and crashing waves just make me want to pop on my sunglasses and soak up some summer sun.<br />
<br />
I wanted to introduce a little bit of a beachy feel into my home for the summer, so I customized some fabric to create this sand dollar pillow in Caribbean blue!<br />

Start by cutting two pieces of fabric approximately 2" larger than your pillow form. My pillow form was 14", so I cut my fabric 16" square.<br />
<br />

Cut out the image and trace around it using the disappearing ink pen. I found my image using Google, copied it into PowerPoint, enlarged it, and printed it.<br />

Allow the bleach to work it's magic. Let it soak in for about 10-15 minutes (or longer).<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVyVmPzWXGOSkOpX3jAViCfTq8X0h4axXwAiPunxPVqsWg-NwSKSV9qZecNVIghFhCdt3EZnN3QqfJOnFKKd1jqlJR5Wc4cR5cF2lTBkLISHJxpkic2WAHUZ3XJWX5It3DpYSGxXdQ1SVh/s1600/Sand-Dollar-Pillow-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVyVmPzWXGOSkOpX3jAViCfTq8X0h4axXwAiPunxPVqsWg-NwSKSV9qZecNVIghFhCdt3EZnN3QqfJOnFKKd1jqlJR5Wc4cR5cF2lTBkLISHJxpkic2WAHUZ3XJWX5It3DpYSGxXdQ1SVh/s640/Sand-Dollar-Pillow-5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Then wash and dry the fabric. I love how the bleach spread unevenly giving it a more organic and natural feel.<br />
<br />

While I could probably sew a straight line, I don't have a sewing machine. :( One of my favorite bloggy gals, Cassie from <a href="http://hisugarplum.blogspot.com/">Hi Sugarplum</a>!, made some <a href="http://hisugarplum.blogspot.com/2011/03/diy-no-sew-pillows.html">no sew pillows</a> awhile ago and I was instantly inspired to make one of my own.<br />
<br />
Following the directions on the Heat n Bond package, fuse together three sides of the pillow (leave about 3/4 to 1" seam allowance on all sides). I put the sand dollar image right side up, adhered the Heat n Bond strips, put the back of the pillow on top (like a little Heat n Bond sandwich), and ironed it together.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggvGM1-SwfOrO_vBSwg_u3vE5lRtW3lhynVgJP-dLRkD8e0A6wu8eaqv59BuLA_xBFiuFYeNKAr60O5uibGGBOp42PL2cezwISKgRcjJYx9c7jcwaHx6eWzHkSsx_1JBR3UXKk0wI3sVap/s1600/Sand-Dollar-Pillow-6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggvGM1-SwfOrO_vBSwg_u3vE5lRtW3lhynVgJP-dLRkD8e0A6wu8eaqv59BuLA_xBFiuFYeNKAr60O5uibGGBOp42PL2cezwISKgRcjJYx9c7jcwaHx6eWzHkSsx_1JBR3UXKk0wI3sVap/s640/Sand-Dollar-Pillow-6.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Turn the pillowcase right side out and press the seams.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSSIDjZXw_vOvztJNlTH8455a7niarDxsl0wEeacRnFvnBBnk-LDNow1gDd8BnjNaZcdmMIwwvmQhev5lFFz8Gik_b3Tw-tYSgOImA_5IZjYuggbQEOs5Gl68oyDVqsSikLUiUjubxPXeq/s1600/Sand+Dollar+Pillow+9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSSIDjZXw_vOvztJNlTH8455a7niarDxsl0wEeacRnFvnBBnk-LDNow1gDd8BnjNaZcdmMIwwvmQhev5lFFz8Gik_b3Tw-tYSgOImA_5IZjYuggbQEOs5Gl68oyDVqsSikLUiUjubxPXeq/s640/Sand+Dollar+Pillow+9.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
On the open end, turn the fabric under and iron a crease to create a finished seam. Apply the Heat n Bond to one side of the pillow (see image below), insert the pillow into the case, and then iron the last seam.<br />

Plop the pillow on a bed or your sofa, and you are finished! :) It's as simple as that!<br />

I wanted to bring in the seas so I bleached the fabric with a sand dollar design, but this project could easily be adapted to fit into any decor...think monograms, floral patterns, stripes, etc.<br />

I hope you are having a lovely weekend! Here is the printable I shared over at Whatever Dee Dee wants last week! Take a peek if you missed it. :)<br />
<br />
Hello Whatever Dee Dee Wants Readers! :) I cannot tell you how excited I am to be here and spend some time with you today! I'm Erin from <a href="http://craftsandsutch.blogspot.com/" target="'blank"><span style="color: #336666;">Crafts & Sutch</span></a>. I love all things crafty and have been diagnosed with "I can make that" syndrome. ...it's a real thing, I promise! I am constantly inspired by the things I see, so I like to create a little bit of everything. :)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKSWBC6CbFVMhTLaJBU9q8ZSeQeJoQO-7dFGYFC2rQxhbIGTAo7NgN634U1cAGXW_qkNTQQ9Zkxbem2EQ6NbWc5D6RdIr4umVb0sJkOxRAzkzNfWTOhMjewoJM2h9jTguaDP2DvhuavAF2/s1600/blogbutton.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKSWBC6CbFVMhTLaJBU9q8ZSeQeJoQO-7dFGYFC2rQxhbIGTAo7NgN634U1cAGXW_qkNTQQ9Zkxbem2EQ6NbWc5D6RdIr4umVb0sJkOxRAzkzNfWTOhMjewoJM2h9jTguaDP2DvhuavAF2/s1600/blogbutton.jpg" /></a></div>Spring is one of my favorite seasons! I just love the air turning a little warmer, the clear, blue skies, and everything getting green and lush! <br />
<br />
I love to create printables and play around on <a href="http://www.picnik.com/">Picnik</a> and in Photoshop, so here is a printable that I created just for Dee Dee's Spring Fling!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdaNynLoJXfdObBMWWzb32SuyNrFMl1AUoOYM754jzXnAsAIIRomWQ0nLBDNZ9B_L1u48wTAlnVWPMfbsjqMeQF07eGJ7wKRJzR2ue7EA1COIFGJ7JB_Tb_WNfL7HoGo0kYf1CRjAodoDb/s1600/April-Showers.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="512" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdaNynLoJXfdObBMWWzb32SuyNrFMl1AUoOYM754jzXnAsAIIRomWQ0nLBDNZ9B_L1u48wTAlnVWPMfbsjqMeQF07eGJ7wKRJzR2ue7EA1COIFGJ7JB_Tb_WNfL7HoGo0kYf1CRjAodoDb/s640/April-Showers.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Isn't she lovely? :) She is all yours. Simply click on the image above, click again to open it in full resolution, right-click the image and select Save Image As. Open the file, resize it (if needed), and print it from home or send it to Costco or Wal-Mart. It would look gorgeous on glossy photo paper! :)<br />
<br />
I have loved spending some time with you today! I hope you'll stop by <a href="http://craftsandsutch.blogspot.com/">Crafts & Sutch</a> and say hi! :) Thank you so much, Dee Dee, for letting me come visit!<br />

<br />
I love this springtime banner Holly made over at <a href="http://www.504main.com/2011/03/diy-birdie-welcome-banner.html">504 Main</a>! It has so much spunk and personality and is such a fun way to great your guests! <br />

Carol over at <a href="http://answerischocolate.blogspot.com/2011/03/scrapbooking-supplies-ring.html">The Answer is Chocolate</a> made this chic ring from scrapbooking supplies and a ring blank! A jewelry project that is simple, affordable, and beautiful is right up my alley! :) I love how the scrapbook paper looks like fabric. That, combined with the sharp, black and white pattern really makes this ring look like a million bucks!<br />

I want to make a pair of these Easter egg topiaries that Haley made at <a href="http://theautocrathaley.blogspot.com/2011/03/egg-topiary.html">The Autocrat</a>! They would look beautiful on my mantle! She did a fantastic guest tutorial over at <a href="http://www.itsybitsypaperblog.com/2011/03/guest-post-from-autocrat-easter-egg.html">Itsy Bitsy Paper</a> to show us how she made it.<br />

I think this egg crocheted garland that <a href="http://www.mamamichie.com/2011/03/easter-egg-garland-tutorial/">Mama Michie's Musings</a> made is so sweet and simple. She has an easy to follow tutorial and since I've been to <a href="http://www.mandipidy.com/search/label/Yarn%20It%20All">Mandipidy's</a> crochet boot camp, I know what all the terms mean! :) This garland would look fantastic strung on your mantle, down a staircase, in front of a window, or wrapped around your kiddo's Easter basket.<br />

Rachel over at <a href="http://sunscholars.blogspot.com/2011/03/flower-pillows.html">Sun Scholars</a> made this giant, flower pillow with cushy, super snuggley fleece! I think it is perfect for a little girl's room or even as floor pillows for a game room (and let them migrate into the living room for spring.)<br />

We all know that I have a wreath obsession. I'm okay admitting it. I have it because of projects like this patch worked kite frame wreath that Carlee shared over at <a href="http://ladybirdln.blogspot.com/2011/03/kite-wreath-for-under-5.html">Ladybird Ln</a>. I am over the moon about this project that she put together for under $5! Does it make anyone else wanna sing "Let's Go Fly a Kite?" No? Just me? Hmm... :)<br />

I showed off Cyndy from <a href="http://thecreativityexchange.blogspot.com/2011/03/tall-poster-board-moss-covered.html">The Exchange</a> around Christmastime when she made some fantastic fabric covered topiaries from poster board. Well, she put a spring twist on her project by wrapping the trees in moss! Genius! <br />

I sure do adore a modern mirror! Can you believe that Alicia from <a href="http://www.thriftyandchic.com/2011/03/pvc-pipe-mirror.html">Thrifty and Chic</a> made these from PVC pipe? PVC pipe is affordable and comes in several diameters. I don't think you could go wrong with this project because the visual impact is stunning! P.S. I love the console table too!<br />

I hope you all had a fantastic weekend! We had a weekend full of craftiness and family! Kason was invited to an art themed birthday party this weekend and he had a ton of fun!<br />
<br />
We were asked to bring art supplies for gifts rather than the "usual" gifts like toys and clothes. Of course, me being the crafty gal I am, LOVED this idea and I ran with it! This is what I came up with:<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXsi171PzqHlF2jziI3lVuCfNvw3W2mQYcVEw7vve0iPgUdlqGeK8z1ah6gglZh9y7orRRl3PoLYo00ru3ZbbSp6XH0wg6J1Q8M9_-hmRdgOv6Y1nutdk-gikg5nk6pqETQfkrrV2uGNRA/s1600/Art-Party-Gift-Idea.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="496" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXsi171PzqHlF2jziI3lVuCfNvw3W2mQYcVEw7vve0iPgUdlqGeK8z1ah6gglZh9y7orRRl3PoLYo00ru3ZbbSp6XH0wg6J1Q8M9_-hmRdgOv6Y1nutdk-gikg5nk6pqETQfkrrV2uGNRA/s640/Art-Party-Gift-Idea.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
I filled a tackle box with all the artsy craftsy stuff a little girl could ask for: watercolors and brushes, various sizes and colors of pom poms, pipe cleaners, construction paper, foam stamps, glittered foam stickers, crayons, sidewalk chalk, various stickers, and alphabet post it notes. :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhADrqOt1ihHVZeZq52YOwZYj1e7qJRATrrxOvST19sctNeXlRlB8W-NhdGS-RNbkhgUQcohnMcoLw5V7SGBPPE83jQ0V8pmQsrK8Ik3Rsj5oTcdC3iGdZUFkgDLmavbk_Eki0ke1lrriH/s1600/Art-Party-Gift-Idea-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="496" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhADrqOt1ihHVZeZq52YOwZYj1e7qJRATrrxOvST19sctNeXlRlB8W-NhdGS-RNbkhgUQcohnMcoLw5V7SGBPPE83jQ0V8pmQsrK8Ik3Rsj5oTcdC3iGdZUFkgDLmavbk_Eki0ke1lrriH/s640/Art-Party-Gift-Idea-1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
I found the tackle box at Wal-Mart for just over $5.00 and managed to fill it with lots of crafty goodies. The whole kit cost less than $20.00. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA5SHfAFtcqfyun2qUxSQxGZQEP_Ue-FjJ0X5mbZ_G3QMWUssyRVAzGnNnT7d21tfOkIny7yljqZ5MPFpggShGcU4ks2XSigxN4_9Ce8r5RojGz4_dlNDcxCXS5IQTERN7mOdnt4Eanlvw/s1600/Art-Party-Gift-Idea-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA5SHfAFtcqfyun2qUxSQxGZQEP_Ue-FjJ0X5mbZ_G3QMWUssyRVAzGnNnT7d21tfOkIny7yljqZ5MPFpggShGcU4ks2XSigxN4_9Ce8r5RojGz4_dlNDcxCXS5IQTERN7mOdnt4Eanlvw/s640/Art-Party-Gift-Idea-2.jpg" width="566" /></a></div><br />
You could also rummage through your craft stash to add items like scrap paper, stickers, etc. and save a few dollars! :)<br />
<br />

I personalized the gift by cutting some vinyl with my Cricut. I love that the apostrophe is an artist's pallet.<br />
<br />

I finished it off with a polka dot bow and a handmade artist's pallet gift tag and paint brush.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1RnQibvne_xQ2JlS6Z8dGJKEaMA-nzIkWiBB9jsCDOUiXVULbdDtnkFO134kA7OkYd9OcEJG1Y3QEDk56IcW3LsvJxo8lvIe3rm8qc68bxfe5RDQLEUyZC7FNXBdqwOAkWrbzyAhEqgR4/s1600/Art-Party-Gift-Idea-5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1RnQibvne_xQ2JlS6Z8dGJKEaMA-nzIkWiBB9jsCDOUiXVULbdDtnkFO134kA7OkYd9OcEJG1Y3QEDk56IcW3LsvJxo8lvIe3rm8qc68bxfe5RDQLEUyZC7FNXBdqwOAkWrbzyAhEqgR4/s640/Art-Party-Gift-Idea-5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Because the kiddos were going to be "gettin' artsy," it was requested they come in clothes they could get dirty. I took this as an opportunity to make something new. :) Makes total sense, right? Kason and I made an artist's pallet t-shirt just for getting dirty. His hand print is the pallet and his thumb prints became the paints. The hubs came up with the "handmade" slogan. :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSGEU4wbdFUrwq915DF4OnZFeTc8IxzYbb-y-O2IERAVf1uTZj9RTHWlBkshv5Qyxs2KNHuLennw49KzcCPfAbkvVypEc1_8OKr33e6lfDllt3Oknna00l9wMUEzSSeY4QlBhsWpmbS6q9/s1600/Handmade-T-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="532" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSGEU4wbdFUrwq915DF4OnZFeTc8IxzYbb-y-O2IERAVf1uTZj9RTHWlBkshv5Qyxs2KNHuLennw49KzcCPfAbkvVypEc1_8OKr33e6lfDllt3Oknna00l9wMUEzSSeY4QlBhsWpmbS6q9/s640/Handmade-T-1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
The monkey's favorite station was the painting station. He stood in front of this easel for at least 30 minutes! Professional artist in the making if you ask me. :)<br />

Here is his t-shirt after the party. While the paints used at the party are washable, I love the "new" look of his handmade shirt.<br />

I'm in Colorado for a super duper quick trip. I flew in yesterday and I'll be back home tonight. :) I can't stand to be away from the monkey and the hubs for too long.<br />
<br />
I've got a confession. I'm in a HUGE crafting rut. I've been in one for quite some time, and I'm having a hard time pulling myself out. Most of it is just life getting in the way...you know how that goes...<br />
<br />
Anywho, I wanted to give myself a little encouragement and motivation so I made myself a printable. :)<br />

Both of these files are huge! They are big enough to be printed as posters! :)<br />

Happy spring! How was your weekend? :) I'm sorry I've been MIA. The monkey was sick last week and was in need of some extra Mommy time, so my "fun" job (and my real job) were put on a bit of a hold. We had a wonderful weekend that ended with a family dinner at our casa. The hubs, the monkey, two Memas, one Nonno, one Papa, me, a pot of spaghetti, a big bowl of salad, and two pies made for one perfect evening! :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Last weekend a friend of mine hosted a baby shower for her sister and she asked if I would make a few decorations. The theme was "Under the Sea" to match the nursery. I used the bedding as color and image inspiration. Take a peek: <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnlLXZjG1wH3IZKMO_I8X8bwPU8jaqKe8R-5DxeUJJ9ZsYW2rxwdLalC49bikG7bj1MCSz0dNUEaeEN5e5_r5rd4yiVU3NeH87WYd0fJSPkIT0W0c6L0vkcR5Rzpc-uPvT6lkYiGrivjW3/s1600/pTRU1-7832677_alternate2_dt.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnlLXZjG1wH3IZKMO_I8X8bwPU8jaqKe8R-5DxeUJJ9ZsYW2rxwdLalC49bikG7bj1MCSz0dNUEaeEN5e5_r5rd4yiVU3NeH87WYd0fJSPkIT0W0c6L0vkcR5Rzpc-uPvT6lkYiGrivjW3/s640/pTRU1-7832677_alternate2_dt.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>Isn't it too cute?! I just love that little octopus. He is adorable!<br />
<br />
My first project was inspired by Michele over at The Scrap Shoppe. She made these <a href="http://mmscrapshoppe.blogspot.com/2011/01/diaper-washcloth-cupcake-tutorials.html">diaper and washcloth cupcakes</a>! I had never seen them before and instantly knew that they would soon become my GO TO baby shower craft.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFUls83LfmIVnFjk4hZfqQgm4dRk_H9AxaAeDJ6nGOs7b5LCgQ_9IIqRRd3a2-om7jkZZnyf9Tcjxv0WF-fo3scmnZr68F2PN8J306UGWu8B2j9qNyTauUkE5fV4BfLRBwv5KD2Ua9Gd2f/s1600/The+Scrap+Shoppe.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFUls83LfmIVnFjk4hZfqQgm4dRk_H9AxaAeDJ6nGOs7b5LCgQ_9IIqRRd3a2-om7jkZZnyf9Tcjxv0WF-fo3scmnZr68F2PN8J306UGWu8B2j9qNyTauUkE5fV4BfLRBwv5KD2Ua9Gd2f/s640/The+Scrap+Shoppe.JPG" width="404" /></a></div><br />
I followed Michele's easy tutorial and ended up these cuties. I wish with all my might I could have found my pinking shears (I hunted for a new pair, but wasn't willing to spend $25 dollars on scissors...I just couldn't do it). I think the pinking detail adds the perfect finishing touch!<br />

I topped each cupcake off with a pom pom cherry! An idea I got from Lindsey at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/babybokydesigns?ref=top_trail">BABY BOKY</a>.<br />
<br />
Then I made a banner to display at the shower and then move to baby Ian's room when he comes home. I used chip board circles that I got from the $1 bins at Michael's (all 5 for a $1). <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgPTeIL6GrKsAx-WW6_aNGGT8H9glqR4J24AvEiOojwMVdIgwiVLZL2tiGyovGjTD6bH012S62ISzbMEjOHjwtwbOeqfF4nmC7HLt7Q4XA1jvHPtK4jcDKtQN77eFw3m8ULI9EN3Uk4g7s/s1600/Banner.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="220" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgPTeIL6GrKsAx-WW6_aNGGT8H9glqR4J24AvEiOojwMVdIgwiVLZL2tiGyovGjTD6bH012S62ISzbMEjOHjwtwbOeqfF4nmC7HLt7Q4XA1jvHPtK4jcDKtQN77eFw3m8ULI9EN3Uk4g7s/s640/Banner.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
For the octopus and turtle on each end, I uploaded the bedding image into Photoshop, used it to generate a black and white image, converted it to a .svg file using InkScape, and then cut the image using my Cricut. It sounds super complicated, but it's just a matter of a few clicks. Once the image was cut, I used a marker to add the detail. Again, I used the bedding as my guide.<br />
<br />

I tied it all together with some "bubble" ribbon.<br />
<br />
Next, I made a diaper wreath to greet guests as they came to the shower. This wreath would also look adorable hanging from the hospital room door and then the "I" can be removed and used as a door decoration for Ian's nursery. <br />

I also made a signature frame so guests could sign with their welcoming wishes for baby Ian. It's great for mommy to take to the hospital too. This is a super easy and affordable keepsake. I was able to make this 11x14 keepsake frame for less than $15.<br />

Of course, you know I had to make Ian his own stylish freezer paper stenciled onesies! I was inspired to create the "I" onesie by one I saw over at <a href="http://gabrielsgoodtidings.blogspot.com/2011/02/freezer-paper-stenciled-onesies.html">Gabriel's Good Tidings</a>. The star print onesie got a rockin' guitar and the nautical stripe onesie got a super cute whale. These were a fabulous find at Wal-Mart for just $2 each.<br />

I love to create decor that serves double duty for mommy and baby later! Everything can be used as decor in the nursery or by baby after the shower!<br />

I'm not sure about you all, but this time change has really done a number on me this year. I've been feeling super late the past few days. :)<br />
<br />
I made this freezer paper stenciled shirt a few weeks ago, but the monkey got it dirty before I could get pics of it. :)<br />
<br />

I wanted to make him a green t-shirt so he won't be pinched on Thursday. :) The only green shirt I found had a pocket on it, so I just pretended it wasn't there. I cut the stencil with my Cricut, ironed it on, and painted it with white fabric paint. <br />
<br />
While Kason is a fraction Irish, he definitely has more cute in him!<br />

<br />
As I've said before, I don't usually decorate for St. Paddy's Day, but this year I added small touches of green around the house. I started with the <a href="http://craftsandsutch.blogspot.com/2011/02/quatrefoil-four-leaf-clover-printable.html">Quatrefoil and Four Leaf Clover printable</a> and now I've added this:<br />

I wanted to keep the quatrefoil theme going because it's so classic and add touches of green to the wreath. This project was extremely affordable for the scale of the wreath! I made it for just $16.00.<br />
<br />
To get started, you will need: four grapevine wreaths, thin brown ribbon or wire, greenery garland, and ribbon.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGA2w4RnXQWdEqoFNIcJ7eCgGh_GuMQ8rYT_S-FH4AG9y-vxHW8CjHcLaaZTqFYpFleK-q-XyBFB_DgS37hWW1hy1R2d6dH6vZ664d0pYxEhIoZZvqm8V3WYlXyb0fsOqgYFCuyOzq5ket/s1600/Supplies.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGA2w4RnXQWdEqoFNIcJ7eCgGh_GuMQ8rYT_S-FH4AG9y-vxHW8CjHcLaaZTqFYpFleK-q-XyBFB_DgS37hWW1hy1R2d6dH6vZ664d0pYxEhIoZZvqm8V3WYlXyb0fsOqgYFCuyOzq5ket/s640/Supplies.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Lie two wreaths side by side and tie them together with the ribbon or wire. Be sure to make the knot snug.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLxuPsXva3WVFfJQ6FUBoAJ0xkq4PdBdttxIa3XHMBMFTx0ctgTxv4XM_-0BE4jjtxi7Bfd6dvtNmVNChyphenhyphenL_En5aYg8Y9B0AgiVazPezvUOhof_rux6YGjysTbvvwpYAc8VWXdhB7DUaHt/s1600/Grapevine-Wreath-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="504" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLxuPsXva3WVFfJQ6FUBoAJ0xkq4PdBdttxIa3XHMBMFTx0ctgTxv4XM_-0BE4jjtxi7Bfd6dvtNmVNChyphenhyphenL_En5aYg8Y9B0AgiVazPezvUOhof_rux6YGjysTbvvwpYAc8VWXdhB7DUaHt/s640/Grapevine-Wreath-1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Repeat the same process with the other two wreaths. Then lay one set of two on top of the other to make the quatrefoil.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0unsmtZFUgQd3Hn7xpVl5zOsFGoHvx4WnJ2xJOSJ7IGeatiDKKpqKfcIWd8mBfKLXz5teRlWAkgbA2GJP5zvXhujV7GVGXmz7UWmC_DjRsITzOoncF7d3hz_Lr582e0qKNes7nr131ZNU/s1600/Grapevine-Wreath-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="504" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0unsmtZFUgQd3Hn7xpVl5zOsFGoHvx4WnJ2xJOSJ7IGeatiDKKpqKfcIWd8mBfKLXz5teRlWAkgbA2GJP5zvXhujV7GVGXmz7UWmC_DjRsITzOoncF7d3hz_Lr582e0qKNes7nr131ZNU/s640/Grapevine-Wreath-2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Now securely tie these together with the ribbon or wire. I went around and through the grapevine. The picture below is a close up of where I tied the wreaths.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd7fdXdZ3mcy6yXSsi2VmS3QydkncjXBcZIte-xGK-UEnlgvn-X2oNWCiWCDkl8ujQ2Zq9h7gdDCi5pCfy_nmk9hRgoZypx3swoV2V2PcXXyI446y1dUpn7NUBCHrSQRMk_rgTVRDQlbXL/s1600/Ties.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjd7fdXdZ3mcy6yXSsi2VmS3QydkncjXBcZIte-xGK-UEnlgvn-X2oNWCiWCDkl8ujQ2Zq9h7gdDCi5pCfy_nmk9hRgoZypx3swoV2V2PcXXyI446y1dUpn7NUBCHrSQRMk_rgTVRDQlbXL/s640/Ties.png" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Now weave the greenery garland in and around the wreath. I simply tucked the ends of the garland into the wreath. I did not tie it. This will make it easy for me to quickly change the appearance of the wreath with the seasons.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMSZ9HqgptvxLs6-i0cGWkbESuPV3vuMwlin6OCHu24p6yqlR-wUwYZvz8Dh72xmBr6xf8R9Pj5C6I78diie_JBRj7nxfWZqhS99wAqKzFW3LPYnYibp4MaYB9a9i3A2QBdDLSRXqP7pqt/s1600/Grapevine-Wreath-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="580" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMSZ9HqgptvxLs6-i0cGWkbESuPV3vuMwlin6OCHu24p6yqlR-wUwYZvz8Dh72xmBr6xf8R9Pj5C6I78diie_JBRj7nxfWZqhS99wAqKzFW3LPYnYibp4MaYB9a9i3A2QBdDLSRXqP7pqt/s640/Grapevine-Wreath-3.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Now do the same thing with the ribbon. Again, I tucked the ribbon ends into the grapevine.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf-3dZyfOj4HQHYOqRv9WrLXD9w4kzxeOwenGBN-SZ0oo9-T9lLZS0-Qmi8YwlpkTzoMbVi8Rcp-KowUNf3c9PIUOBBfa58L8ACq12tqv9mlvSAUTVZtBAS9r15uvlwT3RUgpsXfhQCz_Y/s1600/Grapevine-Wreath-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="544" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf-3dZyfOj4HQHYOqRv9WrLXD9w4kzxeOwenGBN-SZ0oo9-T9lLZS0-Qmi8YwlpkTzoMbVi8Rcp-KowUNf3c9PIUOBBfa58L8ACq12tqv9mlvSAUTVZtBAS9r15uvlwT3RUgpsXfhQCz_Y/s640/Grapevine-Wreath-4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
And there you have it! I hung the wreath above the fireplace in the middle of a decorative wrought iron wall hanging. It reminds me of an old garden gate. :) <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIbcd3r_E8BGT1wVuKp-qET3gtn3E4F-lEbXimuHlEyibTHlckRSLxO4CnX3DyhtMi9_DXX9Z6fWF7dsO1hlJeMQ0ASu2PFvs5WZFTGu8b_hyphenhyphenZ9EvV5qBbNWA59sVjvw2EC_36iZfUR4hY/s1600/Grapevine-Wreath6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIbcd3r_E8BGT1wVuKp-qET3gtn3E4F-lEbXimuHlEyibTHlckRSLxO4CnX3DyhtMi9_DXX9Z6fWF7dsO1hlJeMQ0ASu2PFvs5WZFTGu8b_hyphenhyphenZ9EvV5qBbNWA59sVjvw2EC_36iZfUR4hY/s640/Grapevine-Wreath6.jpg" width="634" /></a></div><br />
The all green wreath is perfect for St. Paddy's Day, but I plan on changing out the ribbon and adding some fabric flowers for spring. :)<br />

Jewels & Sutch has been a long time coming, but this event finally got me on the ball to actually open my doors! :) I don't have a specific jewelry style. I just make what I love, so you will find a little bit of everything in Jewels & Sutch.<br />
<br />
I have only listed a hand full of items, but more will be added over the weekend. Here are a few things you will find in the shop and a few sneak peeks! Enjoy!<br />

Marta, the sweet lady behind Minnies, makes the most adorable hats, diaper covers, and other knitted and crocheted lovelies for the little one in your life! All of her designs are made with 100 percent cotton, bamboo, hemp and corn fibers, and can be customized to your preferences. I adore every single thing in her shop, but here are a few of my favs!<br />

Mandy is one of my bloggy BFFs! We actually met through a giveaway on her blog, <a href="http://www.mandipidy.com/">Mandipidy</a>, and have been chatting away ever since! Mandy just opened a new shop on Etsy, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/Mandipidy?ref=top_trail">Mandipidy</a> Illustrated Prints, and I have to tell you that I LOVE every single print she has created so far!<br />
<br />
Each image is hand sketched in ink by Mandy, then computer edited, and finally professionally printed onto textured card stock giving each one a canvas like appearance.<br />
<br />
I love this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69370322/the-tree-is-carved-with-love">The Tree is Carved with Love</a> print! The details are so intricate...<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69370322/the-tree-is-carved-with-love"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_SWAvkkE7gsGWiBx4P1x7SNE6W1aRUTSOXHw5qXchAyf1hgudNuabPhTs07jAYnH_-xIuCTHFs-rsMZPIkNvQA92SoMnk1FacJlh2Sj8Wx1NQkqyZOtkhhmM2Xe_fA7yyw1MTJaOI5yP2/s640/Tree+Carved.jpg" width="635" /></a></div><br />
...and she will "carve" your initials into the tree and your wedding date and your names are then printed at the bottom. What a special and personal gift for a wedding or anniversary...or yourself. :)<br />
<br />

Mandy and her hubs are expecting a little one, and so these next few prints were inspired by their new addition. I'm such a sucker for pennant bunting and think this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69420188/alphabet-bunting-banner-affordable">alphabet bunting</a> is too cute for words.<br />
<br />

This little guy might be my favorite! I love this chunky <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69427581/ee-elephant-affordable-illustrated-print">E is for Elephant</a> print!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69427581/ee-elephant-affordable-illustrated-print"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_IiUiZ3_A76PimkRfGvID3rSg5Fv5_v6QhEOi_KcRZx_DyPvO4wJetxsgRcEjyIFw3inga3aMpwx5Yt_0lCL7yB5fcuNjKVAA5GytBiVscHfEs_q5NtWEMr0Q4VlaMzobrV5-pKjVzBPV/s640/E+Elephant.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />

Let's party on with a fantastic shop that gives back! I'm so happy to introduce you to <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/AyaFlyCreations#">Aya Fly Creations</a>!<br />

Aya's shop is filled with feathered beauties, but it was her philanthropic attitude that made me fall in love with <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/AyaFlyCreations#">Aya Fly Creations</a>. A portion of every purchase is donated to the <a href="http://www.rowenawildlifeclinic.org/index.html">Rowena Wildlife Clinic</a>. The <a href="http://www.rowenawildlifeclinic.org/raptor.html">Raptor Discovery Program</a> at the clinic is specifically for rehabilitating birds and releasing them back into the wild.<br />
<br />
Everything in Aya's shop is simply gorgeous, but these are a few of my favorites:<br />

Hello, Happy Tuesday! I'm excited to start today's giveaways with <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/lisawinestudios?ref=top_trail">Lisa Wine Studios</a>!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/lisawinestudios?ref=top_trail"><img border="0" height="84" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_k7IKmcKgSJ4_Y24oPhKk9VcP5tCgPXuiDTQE7SjyRjyEDNRrf_MY3Jt1-leUUGTZqFIh1uWQmcxO27GsR_lb8qWgQqBMMHjRmPTW4gKNLxWE5uTIz0IyVecOmX0WblpAhFc9fdsZaNPt/s640/Lisa+Wine+Studios.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />
Lisa's shop is full of vintage inspired pillows and pillow covers to add a bit of charm and style to your home decor.<br />
<br />
This <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/67556732/french-postcard-pillow-cover">French Postcard Pillow Cover</a> is what drew me to Lisa's shop! I LOVE it and think it would be happy to live in my new (not started yet) office and craft space.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/67556732/french-postcard-pillow-cover"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmBdC8prPgJONLRRTEiWqOOtibT1goG4yABLoD_nyxKm_04C585h7r852fUbuI5boulH1j_jlKd4xvZbthlPsylDBjeKePaBOnTnLO9p4nv_1ESeuB7SlGxU9XYaj9Ss9RfVOv-DoVvjZt/s320/French+Postcard+Pillow+2.jpg" width="312" /></a></div><br />
I love Lisa's <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/62967558/hold-onto-your-dreams-pillow-cover">Hold onto Your Dreams Pillow Cover</a> one of a kind design! A fantastic message and the perfect addition for your spring decor.<br />
<br />

This <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/69426031/skeleton-key-pillow-cover">Skeleton Key Pillow Cover</a> is positively delightful. I love it's shabby feel and the doily and fabric flower are perfection.<br />
<br />

How fantastic would this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/65055520/welcome-pillow">Welcome Pillow</a> be in your entry way? What a fun greeting for your guests that is sure to make them smile. I love the typeset letters and the length of the pillow. It makes it casual and a little quirky.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/65055520/welcome-pillow"><img border="0" height="218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWo-1Jz22ScRd_cAe6tNJ7e4L4CmuSNwkoVYL31eycmlnJIu99G6a7BjyZsgquPHcdQBfgsTG9MKS3L-vTh58uTpfTKsL59iXOidjh-HCewXwre1s4X3KMsVOqHklbZar3LYaccvHFOvxo/s320/Welcome+Pillow.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />
This <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/68540795/vintage-bicycle-pillow">Vintage Bicycle Pillow</a> is so unique and fun! Lisa took an old photograph and printed the image onto cotton! I think this pillow would be a whimsical addition to a neutral nursery.<br />

...a fantastic shop chock full of unique, hand-made jewelry and embroidery for your home. Malarie is the chick behind <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/itsastitch">It's a Stitch</a> and everything she makes is fun, trendy, and one of a kind! She uses vintage finds to create these beauties so every piece has character and a touch of whimsy.<br />
<br />
I adore this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/63397247/frosted-flower-necklace-in-linen-fabric">Frosted Flower Necklace</a>! Made with vintage eyelet, I think it screams spring!<br />

I hope you all had a stellar weekend! Mine was super GREAT! The hubs was out of town on his first hunting trip with my dad (not the great part...I missed him), so the monkey and I had the casa to ourselves all weekend. We had tons of fun watching Nick Jr., playing outside, and just having some good ole mommy/kiddo time! It was perfect! :)<br />
<br />
Another fantastic part of the weekend was that Crafts & Sutch reached 1000 followers! All I can say is holy WOW! I'm simply over the moon and so very thankful for all of you that come and visit my little piece of Blogland. :) I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your support and your friendships, and I want to honor you! Let's celebrate, shall we?<br />

Do you Dazzle? I do! <a href="http://www.shoedazzle.com/">ShoeDazzle</a> is an online shoe haven that takes your personal style, mixes it together with a professional stylist's know how, and delivers you beautiful shoes at an outstanding price! ShoeDazzle is the BEST way to stay on top of the trends without breaking the bank!<br />
<br />

I was introduced to ShoeDazzle last year by a friend. I signed up, and just kind of hung out for a few months...seeing what they chose for me. One month a sweet pair of patent nude slingbacks asked me to buy them and I said yes! :) I haven't looked back since. I have ordered heels, flats, boots, and handbags and have loved them all! <br />
<br />
It's super easy to be a Dazzler. First head over to ShoeDazzle and take their <a href="http://www.shoedazzle.com/stylist_surveys/registrations">Style Profile</a>. Based on your selections, their stylists will pick out shoes that suit your style, then all you have to do is choose your favorite! It's that simple! You get gorgeous shoes every month for just $39.95!<br />
<br />
