Riley's Graduation Invitation

This is Riley's invitation to his high school graduation party. I used my Cricut to make the cuts. I used Locker Talk for the grad hat and Birthday Bash for the 2012. I designed the blue base using CDS with the George cartridge.

Graduation Card Box

Here is the card box I made for Riley's graduation. I got the idea while browsing through Pinterest and found one similar that was being sold on Etsy. I have posted how I made it in the comments below.


Riley's Art Show



Riley entered this project into the area schools art show. He made it by carving into a linoleum block and then using a brayer and ink to make a print. He copied it 12 times to make the final project. He received a superior and received that max possible points on it. He also got the Best of Show in the printmaking category. Out of the 140 something entries there were 9 Best of Show winners. He is then invited to show his artwork in the Twin Cities with all the other Best of Show winners through out the state of MN. We are very proud of him!

Pie in a Jar

Here are some Pie in a Jar treats I made for Carter's teachers. I got the idea at ourbestbites.com. I love that site! So many yummy recipes. Of course most of them are not healthy! I used my own recipe for the apple filling that has 3 kinds of apples and a splash of vanilla! I also used my own awesome pie crust recipe. YUMMY! The stamps on the tag are from Paper Trey Ink.
