~ Happy 4th Of July ~

 Happy 4th of July everyone ! I hope your day goes perfectly... We are going down town to watch " The big fireworks that take up the sky ! " , as my baby says :)  I love the big BOOM! noise they make ... its my favorite part. :)   So now moving on to the crafty stuff.  The Pride has been busy creating Stars and Stripes themed projects.  This month, like last month, I have stepped out of the box and made something other than a card or layout.  I have made Pinwheels.  yessss Pinwheels ! never made them before, but I am happy with how they turned out.  I think they would look cute as table decor for the 4th of July feast ! :)  Oh! I almost forgot , if you have landed here first be sure to take a jump back to My Mother's blog to be sure you don't miss anyone in the line up :) ... Now for my pictures ...

I stamped stars on the white one, and added ribbon to dangle down for the stripes :)
For the red one, I dangled stars from the ribbon :) I Love them ....

So there they are ... Now pounce over to Kimi's Blog to see what she has to show !
 Thank you for stopping by and participating in The Pride's lil hop.

~ Father's Day Keep-Sake-Picture Box ~

Hi everyone. :)  Time for another Pride project ... This months project is Father's Day themed.  I decided I would try and change it up a bit, and make something other than a card, since that seems to be all I make...  What I made is a keep-sake-picture box.  I will be putting a card inside, and adding pictures of my son on three sides of the box.  I hope you like what I've come up with :) ...
   We have added new Cubs to the Pride, so start at my Mothers blog so that you can see the new line up ! :) Have fun prowling through everyone's Den! ... Now for pictures of my box.

(I used bolts,washers, and screws to pull in the "manly" feel :) I love the screws as the feet !! )
Thanks for stopping by :) Now you can pounce over to Kimi's Blog to check out what beautiful creations she has to show off.

I put bits of me and my mother into my layout.  As you may know she really likes butterflies and the color pink, and I LOVE birds and darker colors, (like the purple I used for the bottom layer of the photo spots)  Layouts are NOT my strong point.  This is only the second layout I've ever done.  So I hope you guys don't hate it !! :)  ... Oh! If you started here on my blog you need to back track to Elsa's Blog :) (( and remember to leave comments on everyone's blog :) ))  Now for my pictures :) ...
