I remembered to post yet another post on this poor little blog.  I had a wonderful Easter.  We went to my cousins house and almost the whole family was there.  It was so fun we had a Easter bonnet contest.  This was my entry.

I made this up on Earth day.  I used a old Pepsi box, A old dress that I had gotten bleach on at some point, a paper doily, rolled paper flowers, some pipe cleaners, and crape paper streamer.  The pearls were treasure that was found in my vintage jar of buttons!  The little bird was from dollar tree, as well as the chop sticks holding it on my head.  Beacons 3 in 1 advanced craft glue held it all together and I was really happy with how easy the glue was to use on this sort of project.

Here is a better view you can see the fun paper flowers.  I used Glimmer mist in Popsicle , pink bubble gum, and sunshine.  I then misted the entire thing with a clear coat from Tattered Angels that was called bubbles.

This was really fun to make and I have a second one in my head that I want to make in the Steampunk style.    GOSH do I have a million ideas for other hats. 

 

There were loads of great hats to chose from.  Here we all are in the line up  I really loved the little girl who wanted a unicorn hat it was so cute.  I loved the bunny ears and all the fun designs of the hats. 

I ended up winning with my hat.  Which was really fun and exciting.

Speaking of Scrapbooking… I have a few pages to share.

 

I did a page for the Cosmo cricket challenge over at scrapbook.com.. I'm planty there if you want to say HI Open-mouthed smile I used loads of glimmer mist  and have been really into crape paper streamers.. as you who follow know.. The twist was to use two different alphas in your title.

For a while my son loved to make this face in every photo… his MySpace face.  I think we all ended up doing it at least once for a photo.

 

Ok and the last page I have to share today.. I have had this bo bunny paper laying around for a while.  It was very intimidating and I tried many times to use it.  I finally used it with a photo of my youngest holding a worm from the garden.
