Custom Orders - card, jewelry box and frames
I've already started creating snowflakes for this year, so from now to the end of the year I'm sure you'll hear me complaining about working on snowflakes. I did have a small break to work on some custom orders, my coworker needed a jewelry box for a little girl, his mom needed some frames and my other coworker needed a unique Father's Day card for her husband.
Paper maché heart shaped box that I covered on the outside with the polka dotted paper, inside has been painted a solid white; then the whole thing has been sealed with Modge Podge. Three paper quilled flowers can be found in the pop up window, lilac, pink and pale yellow.
My coworkers husband makes security doors, we were trying to come up with something to put on a card and I thought creating a door would look cool, a lot of them lend themselves to quilling with their scrolls and flourishes. I went online and found some images of security doors and picked one that I liked. I also put his initials in the middle which she thought was awesome, she's sure her husband will love it.
This is the 3rd time I've created these frames for my coworker's mom. She works for University of Memphis and uses them as door prizes when they have meetings. Being they're the Memphis Tigers I add the paw prints going up the side along with a football or basketball.

Table Name Cards
I'm tired so this will be a short post, I stayed up way too late last night working on the snowflake cards and watching Nip/Tuck; love that show but why did I have to stay up - it ended at 12:12 a.m. and I have to wake up at 5:20 a.m. to get ready for work before waking the rascals; so I'm very tired tonight.
I just wanted to show what I'm currently working on, I've mentioned the Christmas table name cards and here they are (the icons at least) - cute huh? I'm almost done then I'm moving on to Thanksgiving table name cards with cornucopia's - I've never created that before so it will be a challenge but I'm excited about it. I've seen some other cornucopia's and honestly I wasn't too thrilled with them so let's see how I can do. I'll post later once I'm working on those.
