April and May Dry Erase Menu

I decided to combine the months of April and May on my dry erase menu and use the quote "April showers bring May flowers" to build upon.

If you would like a background on my dry erase menu,

you can view my first blog post on it here:

I used a Spring themed 12x12 scrapbook sheet for the background.

I then used a 8x8 sheet for the foreground.

I picked something that had some decoration but was mostly plain in the center so that the menu would be easily read.

I used my Cricut to cut out the letters for the headline

"April Showers Bring May Flowers"

and glued the letters on.

I used paper flowers to accent the headline and the 8x8 paper,

using glittered brads to hold them together and then glue dots to hold them to the paper.

That's our menu for the month of April and May! :)

Enchanted Forest

St. Patrick's Day is right around the corner!

Although I love the holiday, I do not have many crafting items relating to it!

I had to get creative to create a card for St. Patrick's Day!

When I think of St. Patrick's Day,

I think of little Leprechauns running through a magical forest,

chasing fairies and finding gold.

I had some pretty forest paper in my stash, so I used that to build off of...

The background is a forest scene.

The bottom right corner is adorned with green and yellow flowers, half-back pearls, and a decorated button.

There is a green flower with a half-back pearl in the upper lefthand corner.

Three half-back pearls descend down from there.

Three playful birds are stamped and colored then decorated with glitter beside the tree.

This card and many more are available in my Etsy shop
