Asking and Believing

Hi friends! I attended a new bible study today. I'm asking the Lord to heal a friend of mine; removing the spirit of rebellion and replacing it with the spirit of Truth. Isn't it amazing how we can get some things so easily and quickly and others it can take what seems like an eternity?
If you can, please agree with me in this prayer.
Thank you!!


And, Happy Birthday to an amazing woman. Happy 40th Tete Moser!

Creative Stuff

Since being a SAHM (again), I have discovered a crafty side that I am in love with. I've been taking photos of my projects and wanted to share them with you. I've also included a link to where I found my inspiration, if applicable. Enjoy!


I painted this jewelry box for Miss Sarah at a local paint-on-pottery shop, I also enjoyed the company of Ms. Betty Leone while doing it.
Check out Blazed and Bedazzled here




Well hello rainbow cupcakes with cream cheese frosting! These were so fun to make and even better to eat.
I got the idea here, I used white cake instead of her red velvet recipe. The frosting comes from The Food Network found here.
I love Laura's blog and all of her great ideas!



A homemade spelling board for the girls! I loved this idea and had to make one of my own. All you need is a piece of sheet metal (I used a 2X2 from Lowes), wrapping paper, Mod Podge, Scrabble letters, magnet strips and a glue gun.
I followed these instructions from Laura




I donated some sugar cookies to Sarah's preschool class for their art show basket raffle. I love the bright colors! I found the bottles at Pat Catan's, I think they were intended for glue and paint but I thought they were the perfect size for decorating with frosting.



These cookies were for the director at St. Paul's preschool. She ordered the flower ones for the teachers as a thank you. The baseball cookies were for her grandson. First time making a baseball, I got better as I made more but didn't take photos of those.



Bills Place is rocking the sugar cookie sales! I've made a ton and they sell out in one day, just got a phone call to make more!

Isn't crafting and working with your hands fun?! I have a few more things to attempt and will update you with pictures. If you have other great ideas please pass them along.

Cheers!
