Mr. McGregor's Peter Rabbit Enchanted Lamp

 Hello my dear friends!

We are excited to share our delightful Mr. McGregor's Garden table Lamp with you today.

It was a long cherished adventure to be sure.

It is entered into Mary & Leo's "Masion de Madeline Challenge"

 here https://www.facebook.com/svgcuts/app_448952861833126

We were inspired by the Tales of Peter Rabbit in Mr Mc Gregor's Garden storybook. Thus began our journey into the world of Peter Rabbit.

We made the Madison de Madeline lamp  http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=53&products_id=348 

The brown windows and watering cans are from Mary's "Mother's Garden Kit" http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=44&products_id=306

 The Flower pots, multi color flowers and green leaves in the flower pot and behind the fence were from Mary's "Chamomile Friendship kit http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=30&products_id=191

 The Bunnies, Carrots, tiny birds and raindrops are from Mary's "April Avenue kit"  "http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=11&products_id=300

The Pansies are from Mary's "Mom's Garden Kit" http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=44&products_id=351

I made the picket fence using 2 shapes within Ecal.

For the green vine I used Swirls within Ecal.

The little Bumble bees are Mayr's Free file "Easter Egg Honey Bee" http://svgcuts.com/blog/2010/03/20/free-svg-file-sure-cuts-a-lot-03-20-10-easter-egg-honeybee/

We put a 2" x 2" Styrofoam into the large bottom watering can to raise the lamp base. We used pastel card stock for the watering cans, lamp base and shade and the pail with the tiny bunny peeking out. We used tiny brads for all the  pansies. The light chain holds a pansy. We found the chain in our New crafty room. Pictures coming soon.

We used iridescent glitter for the tiny Bumble bees and water droplets. We used Tim Holts inks for most our inking.

This took many hours of dedication and imagination and we loved every minute of it. Taking these pictures is another story, not so grand as it took us two days...lol to get the right lighting. Wish we were within driving distance of Leo & Mary. He takes awesome pictures!

We Love our adorable enchanting table lamp!

I hope that we have inspired you to start crafting.

Mary and Leo have some amazing kits and Challenges for you.

Once you start you will Never look back! LOL

That's it my friends for another day!

Have a wonderful weekend and keep watching for New and exciting creations.

Hugs,

Piewacket the Cat Silhouette Card

Hello my friends!

Today we would like to share this adorable cat silhouette card that I made.

The cat is cut in black card stock and mounted on white card stock. I used one of Mary's FREE flower corner design to embellish each corner. A twine bow with a few added gems give it a nice look.

You can get the Free svg cutting file below

http://svgcuts.com/blog/2013/04/27/free-svg-file-04-27-13-corner-design/

Piewacket  was my favorite cat for many years. We have many happy memories.

This is the Aspen Clubhouse where we held the Daffodil card class.

This is a picture of some of our students that made the Daffodil card. Some had to pick up children before we got their picture. They did a marvelous job and as you can see, they were all very happy with their card. What a fun day!

That's it for another day my friends.

I hope we have inspired you.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Vintage Pocket Watch Wall Clock

Hello Hello!

Just popping in with our new creation for Fathers Day.

This special clock is going to my Dentist, who is a very wonderful person.  I've know him for many years. I hope he enjoys this beautiful handmade clock that was designed especially for him.

We went to the Clock Doctor here in Apple Valley. We found out that all clock motors are not created equal. All of my others clocks go pa dink pa dink pa dink! LOL  They work beautifully, but are loud. When I installed the clock motor and hands that I bought from him, it was silent and the second hand moved smoothly instead of Pa dink Pa dink...wow what a difference!

 He gave us a clock book to order parts from and they are located in Scottsdale, Arizona, called TimeSavers.

 click below to visit their page for clock parts and order a catalog.

Tell them that Herb The Clock Doctor sent you.

That's it for another day my friends.

Are you ready for another clock.......Yes???

My sister and I are having too much fun making all of these beautiful clocks. She suggests a clock that she would like to see and I start creating it in PSP and eCal.

 We goggled apple clocks and found this metal clock to be most interesting. At first I envisioned just the thin lines as a silhouette, but as I worked with it in PSP it became a checkered clock :)

I love how it turned out and hope that you enjoy it also.

I made a FREE Spring cut Sentiment for you to enjoy.

Black silhouette  layer and  the Spr cut in one and the flower ing cut in one also. I welded it in eCal but it didn't connect. It turned out nice because you can see the r now. lol

 I added a small circle to glue on the flower.  Please share any creations you make with it and I will post them here for everyone to enjoy.

Thanks

 Happy Crafting!

Large Sunflower 3D Clock

Hi again my crafty friends.

We designed our NEW Large Sunflower clock and couldn't wait to share it with you.

 The clock file is from Mary's kit Maison de Madeline. 

Thanks Mary for the inspiration!

You can get her clock file here.

http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=53&products_id=348

I love the way it turned out and will be making more.

Instructions for the Sunflower.
In ecal in the shapes library under spring I used the daisy flower and broke it apart to use the petals only. For the large outside petal I cut two, one in white poster board and one in light yellow 12 x 12 card stock at 9.745 x 9.760 and glued them together and inked the edges with Tim Holtz distressed inks, Mustard Seed and Vintage Photo and touched a few tips with Black Soot.The next outside petals I cut two out of golden yellow 12 x 12  card stock at 8.827 x 8.854 and glued each one separately  to the first set, turning each one so it shows. I then added the clock face cut at  5.500x 5.497 and middle circle at 0.834x 0.834. The numbers are the same as Mary's original file. For the middle sunflower I resized each petal, large 3.052 x 3.060 Med 2.584 x 2.586 Small 0.814 x 1.816. If you need further instructions, please email me and I will be happy to help you.

I still need to find the working parts wholesale. If anyone knows where I can get them, please email me. Thank you so much.

That's it for another day my friends.

Maison de Madeline Large Rooster Clock

Hi my crafty friends!

Today I have something to "Crow" about!

On my last post, I made a small clock with gears for my daughter. For this clock, Suzanne suggested I make a very large clock using Mary's 3D Rooster card from the Maison de Madeline kit. I thought it would be a great idea since I have country in the kitchen.

I think it turned out adorable!

And, it's a real working clock!

 

Maison de Madeline Kit

You can get this kit below.

This is Mary's Rooster card using Graphic 45 papers. 

Simply charming!

Click on the link below to get this kit.

http://svgcuts.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=53&products_id=348 

This large clock measures approximately 11" round. In eCal I sized each piece. I cut 3 brown 12 x 12 card stock for the base and  beige for the face of the clock. The numbers were cut out of black card stock. I took the parts from an old clock that I had. The hands worked perfectly and the back had a large base for hanging. It was pretty simple to assemble once we figured it out. I think I'll be checking a few thrift shops for old clock parts. A fun and easy clock to make for yourself or someone special.

The Rooster was sized to fit and was cut from colored card stock and inked with Tim Holtz distressed inks.

He's the perfect addition to our kitchen decor and would also make a lovely gift. You can use most any design or theme on the face. So many possibilities and choices to pick from. If you are interested in making a large clock and need the sizes of each piece, please email me and I will be happy to share the sizes.
