It's the end of Spring Break & Diana's Wedding Day is Getting Closer!

Well, the wedding day is getting closer and I have a lot of work to do. I thought I would share with you what I am doing for my sister's wedding. I saw these wedding favors online and liked them but I couldn't find the template for them online. So, I made my own template. What do you think? I plan on making the groom one a little taller so that they are the same size. I think they turned out o.k. for a beginner. I also learned something about myself. I like making the templates better than I actually liked making the bag itself.




This is the little purse wedding favor that I made. It's easy to make so that I can make a lot of them without working to hard.



I found this shoe template online and thought it was really cute.



When I got the template and actually made it, I didn't like it as much. I thought it looked a little funny because the sole came all the way up the back as you can see.


So, I bet you can guess what I did. Yep, I made my own template. Using the existing one but tweaking it a little. I made it to where the sole actually lays like a real shoe. This is the practice shoe from the template I made.



See how the sole lays?



This is the finished product. How do you like it?

One more thing to share:
I made this as a little gift bag for my sister Sylvia. It's small. I just made it big enough to fit a gift card.


Now you know what I've been working on this week! Spring break is just about over and I'm glad!! I really miss my boys a lot! They are in every sense of the word BOYS. A pain in the behind sometimes but I sure do miss them when they are gone! I'm about to cry just thinking about those stinkers. I love them bunches! I can't wait to see them tomorrow!

My my how very creative and crafty you are. I could never have made those. I'm glad you're doing something cuz i still haven't done a thing. Maybe I need to take a week off work. Ha Ha!
