Welcome Home Sign

My nephew came home on from a 2 year trip to Hong Kong. We made him a fun welcome home banner to hang in the house. It was super easy and turned out really cute.

1. First, we took white cardstock paper and cut it 6x6, then rounded the corners with a corner rounder punch.

2. We had cut out black letters that fit perfectly in the squares and glued them on with a glue stick.

3. We punched out the top corners with a small hole punch.

4. I cut out a heart on my Silhouette to break up the words. It fit perfectly with the banner. 

5. Then we took Black and White Baker's Twine. I like to tape off the ends, like a shoe lace, I feel that it is easier to thread through the sign. After I have threaded the sign then I  cut off the end with the tape and it is ready to tie off. 

Then it was ready to be displayed. So fun. Check out all the fun at Allscrapbooksteals.com!!! Happy Crafting!!! Jacqueline

I Heart Summer Ideas

Hello again Blog followers!  I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend and were able to take a moment to remember those that you love that have passed, and I hope you were able to have some fun.  I was lucky enough to be able to spend a lot of time with my husband (which hardly happens), my beautiful baby, and family.  My husband works very hard and long hours, so it was a special treat to be able to see so much of him the past few days!  With all this wonderful weather we have been having we were also able to start jogging again and it has been so great and felt so good!

I am so excited that summer is coming.  I'll be honest, I have never really enjoyed summer a whole lot because I hate being hot, but, with having my baby, I am sick of trying to find fun things to do inside and so I'm excited we can now venture outside to have fun!  Speaking of summer, have you seen the new Simple Stories I Heart Summer line?!  It is fantastic, bright, and full of color - as summer should be.    I have a few of my favorite ideas from the Simple Stories Blog, be sure to check their blog to see many more fabulous ideas!

Thanks again for all your support and thanks for stopping by!

Super Bowl Decor

Are you all ready for some Football?!  My family sure is!  I'll be honest, I actually didn't enjoy sports at all growing up and hated that my brother had it on all the time.  But then I married a wonderful man who loves sports, football being his favorite, so I decided to give it a try.  I really enjoy it now, but most of all I love the food involved and the fun to be had with friends and family.  I'm very excited for this years Super Bowl. I think it will be the most fun yet with all the things I have planned.

What I want to share first is my scoreboard.  I bought a chalk board from Hobby Lobby and painted the edges to make it what I wanted.  I also got some wooden squares and sticks and painted them to match. I put vinyl chalk board on them to make the paddles for the scores.  This year my husband and I decided it would be fun to score the commercials since that is the favorite part for people who don't particularly love the game.  So, we will have three teams, and for each commercial each team will give a score, and we will keep track on the score board while also keeping track of the score of the game. I'm very excited for this game!


 Next we have the football cans.  They are just leftover cans I had that I wrapped in our American Craft Chestnut Cardstock and the laces with the White Cardstock.  You can put anything in these; candy, silverware, straws, napkins, etc.  So simple!  Then, we did the same thing with juice boxes for the kids at your party.  We want them to have fun and feel included as well.
          



Next, we wrapped the football field paper from our Echo Park Mini Themes Football pack around some napkins for people to use.  I just cut them 1"x6" and taped them at the end.  Also from this same Mini Themes pack I put the Football and Banner sticker around the vase to make it more festive. 





















And last, my favorite project, the photo booth props.  This is such a fun idea to bring a little bit more of a party to your Super Bowl party.  I made the helmets for each team, a headset of a coach, the eye blacks, football glasses, and football bow ties.  I am so excited to have fun taking pictures with all of my nieces and nephews and siblings, it is going to be a blast!

I know we didn't use much for the Echo Park Football Mini Themes but I would still recommend getting it so you can use the rest to scrapbook all of the fun you had at your Super Bowl Party - I know that is what I will be doing with my extras! And of course, I will share those after the party!  I had so much fun with this project and I hope you enjoy all of my ideas!

Happy Crafting!
