Spring Wreath and A {Belated} St. Patty's Banner

Hey there!

So I have this goal to have at least one wreath and banner for each holiday/season, and I promised myself I'd finish a Spring wreath before Easter this year and lo, I succeeded!

Here it is in all it's glory:
I am quite pleased with how it turned out.

I put 2 larger eggs in the big nest for me and the Hubs, and 3 little eggs in the smaller nest for my 3 Little Monkeys.
I used my Silhouette to make the little pennants and distressed the edges a bit. ♥

Here is what I used:
~Foam wreath form
~Reindeer moss (from Hobby Lobby)
~Nests (also from Hobby Lobby)
~Little eggs (taken from a floral pick)
~Sticks (from my yard)
~Scrapbook paper (from my stash)
~Mod Podge
~Oodles of hot glue

Hooray!

On another note, my friend, Jamie and I attended the Glitter Academy last month and made this copy cat banner that I found on Pinterest.

I, in NO WAY, came up with the design for this banner myself. I am NOT a paper crafter! It is a total copy cat, but the design was so great. Imitation is the highest form of flattery, right?




So that's what I've been up to lately!

What have you been working on?

Look I Blogged!!! (and some other fun stuffs)

Another 4 months have come and gone and I've decided to meander back to my little blog.

**sigh**

Why can't I seem to get my shtuffs together?

Anyhow~ No more excuses. I've ran out of them anyway. I've decided I'll just blog when I can, and if 4, 6, or even 8 months pass, I will just Let. It. Be.

Sounds good to me!

(Maybe if I spent less time on Pinterest, I'd have more time to spend on my blog.... Just a thought :)

On that note:

I was browsing my favorite blogs when I came across this post on C.R.A.F.T.

(I love C.R.A.F.T. ! That is where I won my extra Silhouette!)

Package Pals?

Yup!

Here is how it works:

~You submit a form on C.R.A.F.T. by Sunday, March 25th.
~The first 100 people will be paired with a PP friend through email by March 30th.
~Send your PP a crafty homemade gift in a package by April 28th.

I mean, who doesn't like getting packages in the mail?

I know I do! That's why I've submitted my form!

I'm super excited!

Go submit to get a PP and join in the fun!

LUVS!
