Puffy Heart necklaces





Okay so in-between baking mom's b-day cake I thought I would post another blog entry on puffy heart necklaces I make. I do sell them too. They are a million times better in person than in the pictures. I started making these geez like 4-5 years ago, and in the last year or so they have now been selling them in department stores for around $85 which I think is just a bit crazy since I was making the for about half that price. Plus I have been doing camouflage hearts (pictured) to help send care packages to troops overseas (I am a marine wife, so thats what caused me to come up with that). did really well a few months ago and sent about 10 large boxes (not the military flat rate boxes since I could get them on cargo planes here) of items they needed, snacks, games.
But I love these necklaces, I have many more but I do not have pictures of them, but I may post them later or if you are interested email me (rach.hammill@gmail.com) and I can send to you.
I would post the instructions but since we have moved I cant find where I put them, but I can do that later, but I have now been able to do it by memory since I have made probably like 50 or more of these.

Thank you for looking,

Mickey and Friends




My husband and I are big fans of Disney, and he bought me Mickey and Friends cartridge for my cricut about 2 weeks ago and these are pretty much the first things I have cut out with my cricut. First layering projects. I am going toput them in our scrapbook when I get a chance to sit down and do some more pages (hopefully soon). We go to Disneyland a lot. BTW we are going this weekend :) so I will be making more. I am in the middle of making Minnie's house in sparkly paper.
So I am hoping to get more items posted up here that I have made. I am in the middle of making my moms b-day cake so i will have pictures of that soon. Will be in better quality too since I have finally found my camera and don't have to use my cell phone to take pictures.

So I am off to finish baking and some leaning since my parents come to visit and they get here tomorrow :)

Thanks for looking,
