Stuff, uh, I Mean Things I Have Been Doin'

A couple of weeks ago I went to Liz's fabulous home and we talked, laughed, ate, talked, and did some crafts.
These are some cards I embellished.  I bought the note cards from Target.



I also made this sweet little tag...I took some stamping advice from Liz...and I do love how it turned out!


I totally understand why Liz named her blog, Rose Vignettes.  She has a talent for vignettes throughout her home.  I came home and said....I need to foof!!

I redid the top of the commode in the main bath.  I am thrilled with the results!


Liz made this sweet pic for me a couple of years ago!

I made this one with scraps of paper and a sticker!!

I just love this sweet bunny!
This is how it looks in the evening with just the lamp on.
It was a fun day and I hope to do it again soon!

Hi Ceekay! What lovely things! And I too like the decor on the back of your commode! Great job. You have been busy decorating...I laughed at your post when your son left. I'm already thinking about what to do in my daughters room...I think she is getting married next summer...hahaha...and I'm already redoing her room..in my mind! Big smile!
Have a lovely day sweet one.
Blessings,
Debbie

I still so love that little cameo picture. It looks darling in your vignette with your little plaque that you made to go with it! :)

Your cards were so cute! That was the best idea to use the cards from Target. Then doll them up! I'm STILL not done with the Christmas Cards!!! UGH! Simple is always better for me.

P.S. Thank you for the shout out! :)

Hi Ceekay...

What beautiful cards! I think my favorite is the dragonfly. I used to love doing paper crafts but haven't done any for some time now. Maybe I need to get back into it! I just think that getting a handcrafted card, like the ones that you made, are so special!

Oooh...and I love your new vignette! Love, love, LOVE the framed cameo that Liz made for you! How sweet! Ohhh...and I just adore all sweet bunnies! Hehe! So glad that you and Liz had so much fun, my friend! Crafting is fun but crafting with a friend is awesome!!!

Warmest wishes, sweet lady!

Hi Ceekay,
You creative girl you....I love the top of your potty.
I can't decorate the top of mine. The two way button to flush is on the top of the tank..push the outside button for #1 and the inside blue button for #2....LOL.....
This is a newer potty that is suppose to save water.
Have a sweet day, Elizabeth

Hi Ceekay! Oh, I love those cards! I've always thought - start from scratch but these are adorable and I love them. Now I'm going to have to make some too. You know what a copy cat I am! :)
Love the sweet vignette on the back of your toilet! I think bathroom are hard to decorate - well, not for you!
Thanks for popping in and you should take a class to learn to crochet. It's really not hard and I just enjoy it so much.
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

Your embellishments are darling! I love the polka-dot cards. Now that's a commode that you'll want to stay and sit for a while!

Tammy at Tammy Loves Dishes said...

Such cute little cards and what a great idea to use store-bought and then embellish them. Love that idea!

Your commode vignette is so nice, I just love it. I wish I could do one as nice as yours on mine; however, I have to keep it simple since we frequently have to take the lid off and "jiggle" the chain loose. Yes, real life interferes with my decorating fantasies once again. ~grin~

How cute! Love that framed cameo.
Thanks for joining HSH!

I am now SICK that I don't have a plug in near the comode in our hall bath. That is just a darling place to put a little lamp!

I love your embellished cards, too. How wonderful that you spent such a fun time with a crafty, bloggy friend!
