I've been busy with classes this past weekend. The first was a small intimate class with this super cute couple who are also my cousins! They came over to play and we had a blast. David made this awesome memo/photo holder. This was his first time crafting and I think he had fun! I told Clara there was no reason for them to make the same thing so I let her make one of these awesome bunnies I found at Joanns. She's been to several classes so she was pro at covering this bunny. It came out so cute!</div><div class="separator" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6q7kUqjn-5c/Vvkv59S5R9I/AAAAAAAABFE/XnSTDA60l8g/s640/blogger-image--1257565378.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-6q7kUqjn-5c/Vvkv59S5R9I/AAAAAAAABFE/XnSTDA60l8g/s640/blogger-image--1257565378.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PI9vWoesDKI/Vvkv76RBWGI/AAAAAAAABFI/2-8yVOPYNGM/s640/blogger-image--1259560851.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PI9vWoesDKI/Vvkv76RBWGI/AAAAAAAABFI/2-8yVOPYNGM/s640/blogger-image--1259560851.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">My second class was also a first!

I am trying to do better and blog at least once a week. Here I have some really cute spring projects. I'm loving this canvas piece! It's 10" x 20". This is a new size canvas for me. I finished the background a couple weeks ago but didn't know what I wanted to do with it so, I just started playing around with it, and this was the final outcome. The flowers really pop off this piece. Next up I have these fun little bunnies! They came out perfect. They are just fun. Happy to say they have found a happy home. I've got lots of ideas rolling around in my head so please come back and check out my next projects. Thanks for stopping by!! Till next time! </div><br></div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580218813664647110.post-49229626949977271542016-03-15T09:18:00.001-05:002016-03-15T09:18:25.542-05:00Picture Frame with Texture<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UNH5pio-u_o/VugZsG-id1I/AAAAAAAABEQ/h0KzkPNrqvI/s640/blogger-image-1379774142.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UNH5pio-u_o/VugZsG-id1I/AAAAAAAABEQ/h0KzkPNrqvI/s640/blogger-image-1379774142.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Hey everybody!! Welcome back! I couldn't wait to show you this awesome project. I'm loving this picture frame!! I found these paper mâché picture frames at Michaels, and I bought all of them! Lol! My favorite part of this frame is the textured stencil made from modeling paste. It totally gave this frame a facelift. I then added this cross and chipboard family word. I had so much fun making this frame because hoping the stencil would come out perfectly made it kind of nerve racking and that was fun! Lol! I hope you like it as much as I do. Thanks everybody for stopping by!! See you all soon! </div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580218813664647110.post-77774150601944694422016-03-07T11:37:00.001-06:002016-03-07T11:37:59.535-06:00Prayer Boxes....taking on a life of their own<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-oEb59tZQDu4/Vt28bhrLhPI/AAAAAAAABD4/f0sYhQHv1Vk/s640/blogger-image-1499613665.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-oEb59tZQDu4/Vt28bhrLhPI/AAAAAAAABD4/f0sYhQHv1Vk/s640/blogger-image-1499613665.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-RGKJE2EwzxI/Vt28Zmo88WI/AAAAAAAABD0/o6xIG8Bv19E/s640/blogger-image--773322634.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-RGKJE2EwzxI/Vt28Zmo88WI/AAAAAAAABD0/o6xIG8Bv19E/s640/blogger-image--773322634.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PiUao_4JizE/Vt28Xn6G5lI/AAAAAAAABDw/wbKiGrAeFXY/s640/blogger-image-1013123930.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PiUao_4JizE/Vt28Xn6G5lI/AAAAAAAABDw/wbKiGrAeFXY/s640/blogger-image-1013123930.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Pd7xZi6wnMg/Vt28dmmkUUI/AAAAAAAABD8/SxLQqnWFlis/s640/blogger-image--2005626972.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Pd7xZi6wnMg/Vt28dmmkUUI/AAAAAAAABD8/SxLQqnWFlis/s640/blogger-image--2005626972.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Loving these little prayer boxes!! I had seen a couple versions at a local store and I thought to myself "I can make those!" I found sound empty Altoid boxes and got to work! They are intended to help keep all those special prayers in one place. I had one friend say she had almost used up all her cards. Lol! I had another friend say she is praying hard and once her prayer is answered she is writing that on the back of the card. The power of prayer is amazing and I believe it works! Back to more crafting!

I've posted just a few pics here of what's been going on. I went into craft season with full force. I did 5 shows and I did really well. I can't thank everyone enough that has supported me. I've also been busy with classes. I have a great support team there too. I've done a class every month so during the holidays these classes kept me super busy too. I went right into 2016 busy with cards, another class then geared up for Valentine's Day. I know this is short and sweet but didn't want to bore you with all the details. I feel bad because I've made so many projects I'd love to show you. Maybe I will post some of these items in the coming weeks. I'm going to really try to do better and post more often. Thanks again everybody for following me on this crazy, crafting obsession.

Been having more fun teaching some mixed media classes. I had so many request for sugar skulls so I thought I'd give it a try, and guess what?! Everyone did fantastic! I think what I loved most is how nobody's piece looked the same. All these ladies have really put their own spin and own personality into their piece. Classes are getting more and more popular and I couldn't feel more blessed. I can't wait to do more. I've been busy on my own projects and I'll be posting some of those soon. Thank you all for stopping by!! See you all soon!! </div><br></div><br></div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580218813664647110.post-1013401425295266332015-07-20T09:02:00.001-05:002015-07-20T09:02:29.752-05:00Anchor Mixed Media Pieces<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-DCycQiY7xGM/Vaz_dD_Q-zI/AAAAAAAABAw/EgSW2JXmw58/s640/blogger-image--608921329.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-DCycQiY7xGM/Vaz_dD_Q-zI/AAAAAAAABAw/EgSW2JXmw58/s640/blogger-image--608921329.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-3aR89wlyrQQ/Vaz_Y1e8omI/AAAAAAAABAg/gCV-Rv00VA4/s640/blogger-image--1138559249.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-3aR89wlyrQQ/Vaz_Y1e8omI/AAAAAAAABAg/gCV-Rv00VA4/s640/blogger-image--1138559249.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-H7VB_iT5L3c/Vaz_a59PCxI/AAAAAAAABAo/lk4EwWFOj0w/s640/blogger-image-1908361574.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-H7VB_iT5L3c/Vaz_a59PCxI/AAAAAAAABAo/lk4EwWFOj0w/s640/blogger-image-1908361574.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Love these pieces! They kind of taken on a life of their own. They've become a very popular piece. I'm making them like crazy. What's been great about these pieces are the personal touch.

The month of March was so much fun. I got to start teaching classes in our local nursing and rehab facilities. These classes were a blast. The folks I've met are all so interesting and have the most amazing stories. I'm being hosted by Amarillo a Home Care Services. They have been so good to me, they are great people. Now to April...it has been equally as busy. I did my first craft show of the 2015 season. It was held at Amarillo High School. I'm truly blessed. I had a great show!! I got the most amazing feedback. Here are a few pics from the show. I'm off to the craft studio to work on some new projects. I'll be back soon.

I'm feeling very blessed. Made everything from mixed media canvas piece, mini album, cards and candy bar sliders. This is always a great time of year. What I love is that all my orders came in from guys. I hear the same thing on ever order. They want something different. They want to make their loved one feel special. I think that's awesome and I appreciate that they come to me to help achieve that. Another thing I loved about this season is that I got to try out several different techniques.

Here is a special order card for a 50th birthday. I was just told he liked beer and I could go from there. I decided to pull out my Gelli plate and create my own background using paints and distress inks. I love how it came out. I found this beer pic in a magazine, it worked perfect and the numbers are from Maya Road. It all came together nicely. I started this not knowing how it was going to come out. In the end it was perfect for him.

Here are a few projects coming out of the craft studio. First is a picture of a card I made for a friend. It's recently been published by Scrapbooking.com for the month of January. This card just defines Hillary. I wanted the card to match her talent and gift of singing. She brings all emotions out of you when she sings and I wanted this card to do the same thing. It's magic, it's that plain and simple. Second piece is one that has quickly become one of my most popular. Sugar skulls are so hot right now. I can't seem to keep these, they sell very quickly. I love to bring these to life with all the bold colors. The image is from Bombshell Stamps. This stamp line offers those one of a kind stamps. I also just have fun creating these pieces. Lastly, this is a piece carrying me over into the month of love. I'm using this piece for a class. My friend owns the local scrapbooking store and has been asking me to teach some mixed media classes. This month I decided to incorporate pictures. I take the basics of mixed media to help people create their own one of a kind project. I can say my new year has been pretty awesome. Please keep coming back because I have some great new ideas for this year. I'll be thinking a lot outside the box. Thanks again for stopping by!! Till next time! </div><br></div><br></div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580218813664647110.post-91691857248209811572014-12-30T13:31:00.001-06:002014-12-30T13:31:06.585-06:00End of 2014<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-HHgB9Y66SsQ/VKL9eGVGRQI/AAAAAAAAA64/bbfT_rPpRfU/s640/blogger-image--308561795.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-HHgB9Y66SsQ/VKL9eGVGRQI/AAAAAAAAA64/bbfT_rPpRfU/s640/blogger-image--308561795.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-44anl4sTvSs/VKL9aRrf9UI/AAAAAAAAA6o/wBsXkusO9Sk/s640/blogger-image-824818196.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-44anl4sTvSs/VKL9aRrf9UI/AAAAAAAAA6o/wBsXkusO9Sk/s640/blogger-image-824818196.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-u3IL2khhSg0/VKL9cdKTa3I/AAAAAAAAA6w/8LE0eGTi_7Q/s640/blogger-image--1379859958.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-u3IL2khhSg0/VKL9cdKTa3I/AAAAAAAAA6w/8LE0eGTi_7Q/s640/blogger-image--1379859958.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I can't believe it! Another year has gone by! 2015 is just a fews days away. I look back at this past year and WOW! So much has happened. My sister got married, I've started a new schedule at work, I created a Facebook craft page Just A Craftin' by Freddie, and most of all I got to enjoy more crafting. This crafting season is the best to date. I had several successful craft shows and met some amazing people. Here are a few of the projects I had at my last show. The feedback this year has been amazing. I'm truly grateful and blessed by all your kind words. I have the best support system. My family and friends just keep encouraging me along. I'm already in the process of getting ready for next year. I've gotten several special orders in for the new year. I can't wait to show you the new items I have rolling around in my crazy head. Lol! I want to thank all of you too. Thank you for continuing to visit my blog. I've also told myself I need to do a better job at blogging and I'm really going to work on it. I want to wish you all the best 2015 and please come back to visit. </div><br></div><br></div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580218813664647110.post-61299269563896613932014-11-26T07:45:00.001-06:002014-11-26T07:45:39.406-06:00Sorry, Sorry but Thank You!<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-zLFESxHv56w/VHXZeutc4hI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/o_Za_QRGWrY/s640/blogger-image-1568399472.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-zLFESxHv56w/VHXZeutc4hI/AAAAAAAAA6Q/o_Za_QRGWrY/s640/blogger-image-1568399472.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-UYOTVpvrotw/VHXZgXl_-AI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/virdSrYw9O8/s640/blogger-image--954679916.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-UYOTVpvrotw/VHXZgXl_-AI/AAAAAAAAA6Y/virdSrYw9O8/s640/blogger-image--954679916.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pkwzLkSrT-c/VHXZcqTn0rI/AAAAAAAAA6I/QTUQ7N7Rj1Q/s640/blogger-image--562237278.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-pkwzLkSrT-c/VHXZcqTn0rI/AAAAAAAAA6I/QTUQ7N7Rj1Q/s640/blogger-image--562237278.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Sorry I've been away for so long but it has been for a good reason.

I've got one more show possibly two and I'm basically out of product. What an amazing problem to have! I'm back in the craft studio making up some new projects.

Having so much fun with Krazy Island Studios. I've decided to do another ATC swap with them. For this swap the theme was Halloween, and I've had a blast creating my cards. I sometimes love not knowing how my cards will come out and that's exactly what happened here. I just went for it. Using acrylic paints, distress inks and stamps I created these cool cards. I love them! Getting ready to mail them out. I can't wait to see everyone else's creations. Thanks for stopping by! I'm heading to the studio so come back soon to see some great projects. </div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6580218813664647110.post-22537563601958901832014-10-14T09:05:00.001-05:002014-10-14T09:05:57.402-05:00Halloween Projects<div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-EFsCGLg_id0/VD0tu1n8JuI/AAAAAAAAA5g/F8vdhB16ROc/s640/blogger-image--1834957051.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-EFsCGLg_id0/VD0tu1n8JuI/AAAAAAAAA5g/F8vdhB16ROc/s640/blogger-image--1834957051.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1LoLzyKyOyc/VD0twiCPgxI/AAAAAAAAA5o/7wypOeeI4NE/s640/blogger-image--1087948160.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1LoLzyKyOyc/VD0twiCPgxI/AAAAAAAAA5o/7wypOeeI4NE/s640/blogger-image--1087948160.jpg"></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">These are some fun projects I've been working on.

I've sold several for teacher's gifts also. Second project is just fun! It's a witch's hat center piece. I always have so much fun making these. The flowers on the hat are made plastic spoons and aluminum cans. I used some fun embellishments to finish this up. Well I'm headed back to the studio so more projects to come soon.

My second piece is one of my favorites. Using a Prima stamp along with chipboard from my favorite line Maya Road to create this one of a kind piece. Both of these pieces were so much fun to create because once again I got my hands dirty. Thanks again for stopping by!

One flower made from plastic spoons and the other made from coke cans. I also heat embossed the entire hat with clear enamel and it has the most awesome texture. I love creating these one of a kind pieces. I hope it finds a great home.

Fair time! I took my entries down on Wednesday and was nervous and excited all at the same time. I decided to enter four items this year. First is my decorated picture frame. I layered with a piece of aluminum foil, used H2O's to paint and a daisy stamp. It looked great. Second is my greeting card, I used my flower making magic to make the card come alive. Third is my single page scrapbook layout, I have gotten away from scrapbooking but felt my roots pulling me back. Of course I couldn't do a simple layout, I jazzed this one up with all kinds of mixed media. It came out perfect! Last is my recycled detergent bottle turned into a birdhouse. This was getting lots of attention when I left. It's a one of a kind. Love it! I can't wait to go out and see how I did. It's always fun to go out and see everyone's amazing work. There is lots of talent out there. Thanks for stopping by!

Well today's blog post is something special. It's back to school week here in Amarillo and you know what that means....back to school pics on Facebook. Lol! I do love seeing all your precious angels but an amazing idea came to mind. What are the parents feeling? So...I created a challenge on Facebook asking the parents to turn the camera on themselves. I wanted to see how they were feeling about the kids going back to school. The replies were amazing. Everybody really started having fun with this challenge. I offered a free 12 x 12 layout to the top five vote getters. Here are a few of the winners. As I finish their layouts I will post those pics. I want to thank everybody that participated. It was a blast to host. I can't wait to figure out what my next challenge will be. Thanks for stopping by! Come back soon! </div><br></div><br></div><br></div>Freddiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08657233661481507960noreply@blogger.com0
