Ta-Da..Finally Finished My First Hat


I completed my first hat made on the Knifty Knitter. Its certainly not perfect, if you look closely you can see that my tension was not even but that makes my hat look unique, right? LOL I didn't bring the bottom up to make a brim (I'll do that on my next hat) as I saw that in the instructions after I had passed that point. My pompom turned out harder to make than I thought it would be or am I just pompom-impaired??? It is oversized for the hat and I debated whether to cut it down to proportion but then I decided, what the heck, leave it funky looking with the bigger sized pompom b/c I think its going to look soooo cute on a little teeny tiny head, don't ya think? Now I just need a little one to get photos with this on.

Way Too Hot To Scrap

It's been way too hot these past few days to scrap. My brain has over-heated and I'm just really sluggish. I'm hoping to finish up my first baby hat with the Knifty Knitter and I will post a pic on Sunday night when I return from our trailer. I have a LO and a card on the go and will finish that up after the wkend and post it. So look for some posts early next wk but for the wkend...nothing going on. Hope you're handling the heat well and keeping cool somehow.

Recipe Swap

This was my swap recipe for Scrapaholics this month. I did a hybrid digi layout using a punched out flower embellishment, centre piece was a punched circle from metallic paper and a brad in the centre. I computer typed and cut out strips with preheat, grease & bake glued overtop. BTW, this is a really good recipe so if you can see it clearly enough to read it, go ahead and try it; I bet you'll love it like we do.

Ever Forget To Sign Your Card?

I created this card for Courtney's birthday and when she opened the card yesterday it was blank LOL I had forgotten to sign it. Gee, in all my years of card giving, I've never done that before! We all laughed about it and I said she could remove or add overtop of her name with someone else's for another time and be able to recycle the card :)

Finished a LO by Midnight Tonight

Finished this hybrid LO just before midnight and my eyes are getting droopy so it must be time to go to bed. In photoshop I put house and tree onto white cs and then printed out bird separately so I could cut it out. I created the journal strip in photoshop, printed and cut out. Used some old Scenic Route pp and my fave alpha stickers by MM along with a "HOPE" stamp. The bird has gold Stickles and is popdotted over the tree.

I'm off to bed...goodnight!
