Name frame

I finally decided to try a name frame. I made one for my Mom for Mothers Day. She is into sewing and has her own sewing room so I decided to make one that said "Grandma's Sewing Room". It was pretty easy to make and I am very happy with the end result. I sent it off to her just in time for Mothers Day and she really liked it! Here is a picture of it.



I used this really pretty paper by Heidi Grace and cut it into squares. I wanted to give the look of a quilt. Around each letter I did some faux stitching. I also did faux stitching around the little box that says "sewing room." I used my SU! set "Looks Like Spring" and the matching punch for the little flowers.
I also recently just got a scallop circle punch! I have wanted one so bad but every place I looked was sold out of them. Finally Joanns.com got them in and I got it 50% off! Woohoo! I am LOVING it!
I have some big news, well big news in my house, hehehe! My little Annabella is starting to potty train! She is doing so well. I am pretty much only putting her in diapers for naps, bedtime and while we are out. She still has accidents so I don't want to be out when she has one! I can't believe how big she is getting. She turned 2 on April 22 and since then has moved into a bed and is now potty training. She is such a big girl! So thats about it! Not much exciting going on in my life! I feel better now that I updated my blog:)
