You Inspire Me

Thanks to all 24 of you for linking up to my Pennywise Presents party.  I expect next Friday to double the people who link up.  Come on people…GET CRAFTING!  If you missed it click here to check out all of the great Pennywise Presents.

It has been a while since I have written a “You Inspire Me” post.  There have been many of you who have emailed me and told me you made something you saw on my blog.  I am so grateful to all of those people who have tried one of my tutorials.  The very fact that I inspired you to try something is gift enough to me to write this blog.

Introducing…

Susan emailed me with her rendition of my puppet theater.

Kelsee from Pumpkin Pie Crafts was inspired by my Bonheur Necklace and made one for herself.  She is now the belle of the ball!


 Amanda from All things Creative saw my Origami Bag vlog and decided to try it herself.  She even made ya’ll a diagram.

Michelle from Woodland Country Life made a Bake-It Forward plate from this weeks posts.  Talk about not letting a moment pass…you go girl!


And this week Stacie from The Creative Crate inspired me to make a Dry Erase Calendar out of an old frame.  Thanks Stacie!

I spray-painted the frame black and used a permanent marker on the back of the glass to mark the lines.  I do not have a Cricut machine (so sad!) so I just wrote everything by hand with my ever-so-fabulous Chalk-Ink markers.  (See my sidebar for Chalk-Ink promo code).  I LOVES the way it turned out.

  6. Those ornaments are adorable! Congrats to the winner!

    I like the calendar, I was thinking you could just make a dry-erase board with that. Put some scrapbook paper in the frame, you could even draw a design on the back of the glass with permanent marker and then voila! The possibilities are swirling! : )
