Kimberly's Crafty Spot: Monthly swap

Hi Everyone!
I have finally been getting back into the swing of things now that school has started back up.

Today I am sharing two projects I made for a monthly swap, me and my Bestie Stacey do.

Our last swap was to create a home decor project. I decided to make her something for her master bedroom.

These projects are always tough for me to photograph properly.

I bought these wooden plaques at Micheal's and painted them and then sanded them. I used little screws to hang them together, also from Micheal's. I cut the monogram letters from Tie The Knot Cricut Cartridge to spell "Love".
Here are some close ups of each letter.

I really love how it turned out and then I decided to make her a card to go with it.

I didn't get a chance to send her an Anniversary card this summer, their Anniversary was in June.

So I used this week's Mojo Monday 257 Sketch.

Here is my card for her:

The inside of the card:

Thanks for stopping by and I really hope she likes this! :)

Have a wonderfully, crafty day!

Hi everyone!!
I'm still alive :) I have been crafting some here and there. Summer time is just busy with both kiddos home and one in summer school but only for a few hours each day and during that time I'm taking the other one to therapy, library time, appointments, etc.
My bestie and I do a monthly swap and it's always my favorite thing to create every month.

I always look forward to it.

In May, our swap was to create a Mini Album.
**Photo Heavy!!**

This was a first for our swaps.
I made a Graduation Paper bag mini album for her daughter that graduated in 2010.

Pages 1 and 2

I used alot of supplies on this mini album so I won't list them here but if you would like to know just comment or send me a message. Some of them are also handmade specifically for this album.
I hope you are having a wonderful summer and stay cool!!
