Flourishing Flowers, and a Birdie Cage...

Me and My Madi had tons of fun crafting this weekend.  She is a great inspiration for ideas!  Here is some of the fun things we crafted...but first things first! ICE CREAM!!



I saw a segment on Studio 5 on how to make these cute little bird cages.  I need to make a couple more coordinating ones, they look darling in a group of 3.  Super easy!!



Madi created this! I loved it so much, I had her make me 2 more to go on my plate rack. Kudos to BH&G Magazine.

Yay for paper shredders and cupcake holders!  I went with spring colors for this little set of baking cup flowers. I took white holders and stamped the white holders with the stamp pad itself.  So, on this one I used green and purple, and left one just white.  Then I shredded it and folded it into the shape of a flower, and used floral tape with a skewer to hold the flower together.



This is the start of a couple new projects.  I just love it when I can craft on a dime!


oohhhhh... had to try out the metallics!  Looove it.


I love the accordion folding flowers...maybe because I played the Accordion when I was younger... hmmm.  But I really love using old dictionaries or cook books to cut up and use for crafting.

Um...this is so stinking cute! Where did you find your cute cupcake wrappers--I hadn't seen the metallics before! And the ice cream looks good too--except for willie nelson's picture...a little scary... :) I LOVE that bird and I LOVE the flower Madi made!!!!

I used white cup cake holders and used the stamp pad to get the color I wanted. The metallic at Walmart (mini ones). By golly, that is Willy Nelson...
