Let's Do It All Again in 2015!
Happy New Year!!! A special thanks to a fellow Chick-fil-A friend for giving me the idea for this community board! Here's my spin on it. I attended so many great events last year with the Cow! Looking forward to another great one! I think I have more pictures of the Cow than my own children! Looks like I have a new goal for this year... take more pictures of my real kids.
Supplies:
Black butcher paper
Monster Hair boarder
Mickey Mouse Font Cricut cartridge
Cardstock - red, blue, yellow, green
Pictures
Snowman Snowman
Brrr... it's still cold here in Utah! This month our focus is on breakfast. We are doing a free breakfast item giveaway every Wednesday. Have you tried Chick-fil-A breakfast? If not, you should! My personal favorite are the Chick-n-minis. Here's the description: "bite-sized Chick-fil-A nuggets nestled in warm, mouth-watering mini yeast rolls that are lightly coated with honey butter spread." Now you want to try them, don't you?!
After month's of my Cricut machine not talking to the Cricut Craft Room and hours of trouble shooting, I finally was able to use the CCR! I welded the letters together. So much easier than gluing them one at time. But next time I will choose a fatter font.
Supplies:
Fabric
Snowflakes - from the Dollar Tree
Batting - tear the edge to look like fluffy snow
Designer's Calendar Cricut cartridge (January)
Font Cricut cartridge
Snowmen - my own creation

Good Things to Come!
Happy New Year! I didn't set any "official" New Year's resolutions this year. Strange, but true. One thing for sure is I need to take more pictures of my awesome kids and as a family! Here we on our trip to Hawaii in November:
Maybe this year I will even make CARDS and fun projects again! Rumor is Dustin Pike/Doodle Dragon Studios will be cranking out some new artwork soon. I'm soooo excited! Be watching!
Hoping this year bring much happiness and joy to everyone!

Party Time
Merry Christmas! Here is the tree I decorated for our store. I wish I would have taken a closer picture of it, but for these pictures I was focused on the fireplace. For our company Christmas party, we had an Ugly Sweater theme. One of my assignments for the party was to come up with a backdrop for pictures. So I decided to make this fireplace... nice and cozy next to the tree with everyone in their sweaters... the classic family photo. I found this ugly sweater for Cow at Target. It's actually a dog sweater, but it fit great!
How to make the fireplace... I taped together 3 boxes for the base of the mantle. Then covered it in black butcher paper. The brick is a flat cardboard covered in red. I used masking tape to make the lines. The mantle ledge is 3 of the same size boxes as the base, but cut in half and turned upright. Covered once again in black butcher paper. The back edge of the ledge is cut so the piece can slide OVER the brick sheet. Did you follow that? The kids absolutely loved it! As you can see one of them tried to fall into the fire.
Supplies:
6 boxes
Butcher paper - red, orange, yellow, gray, brown
Masking tape
Tinsel
