VBS

We had VBS last week.  I am finally getting the pictures posted. 

Students making their treasure maps for craft time.  This was a map on 11x17 paper that they could color then glued/taped to paper towel rolls and then tied with yarn.

 Students in our fellowship building.

 Our ship (made from a table and two quilting stands, dowel rods and twine). This was used for our snack display.

Our ship with our first nights snack. This was made with blue jello topped with an orange cut in quarters and a construction paper cut in a triangle placed in orange with a toothpick.

Our ship with our telescopes.

Our telescopes.  Made from a simply sandie cookie, an ice cream cone, a mini reese cup, and blue icing.  The surprise inside is m&m's.

Our telescope craft made from a toilet paper roll wrapped in construction paper and a yellow paper cup. It moves!

Our pigs in a blanket snack night.

More snacks

 This was made by one of our members. The anchor was cut from my cricuit and they glued tissue paper to it.  Colored the ship and held in place with a brad.

This is our sand cup night.  We crushed golden oreos and placed in a cup hid a gummy fish inside then used vanilla pudding. Topped with more oreos and an umbrella.

Our last night was ice cream sundaes.

Our other crafts were a compass made from a small paper plate with an arrow and the letters N,S,E,W cut from the cricuit and glued to the plate. A brad was used to secure the arrow.

Our last craft was a treasure chest made from an egg carton.  We took some contact paper and covered the top of the egg carton (where all the words are) so they had a clean slate to start with. Then the students glued jewels to the top of the egg carton. I cut a lock out of cardstock with the cricut and they glued that to the egg carton. 

Thanks for hopping by!

My New Card Files

Yesterday I spent a little bit in my room sorting all of my cards. When I was a consultant with Close To My Heart I participated in a card swap and I got quite a few cards over the time. I still haven't used any. Well, I decided to separate by type and then label each box so it would be a lot easier to find my cards instead of having them all piled in one big box. This is what I came up with; those $1 small sized cd crates that were stacked in my office empty.  The only thing I am missing at the moment is the labeling because there was no paper in the labeler when I went to print. 

I am sorry that the bottom picture is sideways and I can't figure out how to rotate it anymore.

I have ten of these for my cards and they are on a shelf in my craft room closet.  I could be a spokes person for these little things as I use them for everything: my exercise cd's are in them, my stamps and the girls each have one under the sink in their bathroom to store their toiletries to help keep things tidy in the guest bathroom.

My Desk

I just had to take a picture of my desk to prove that I had actually cleaned off and reorganized my desk space. I decided that I wanted to put my cricut on my desk so I could eliminate one table out of my office/craft space.  I want to put a full size bed and nightstand in here so that when we have a house full we all have a place to sleep.

Wow It Has Been A While

Wow!  I just realized that I have not been on or posted on my blog for a month.  I totally apologize for those who have been reading and following.  That means I have two ladies bulletins to add to the blog.  I will begin working on those this week.
