Holy Family

I am entering my Holy Family Glass Block in the "What Inspires My Heart" challenge at K Andrew's Simply Sunday Challenge at Getting Cricky.

Gifts for My Teacher/Friends

Last year I taught 2nd grade and really fell in love with my team. I miss them so much. This year I did a maternity leave for one of them. I enjoyed working with my team again. I made ornaments for them (after I got my Cricut). 

I made an etched block for one of them. She was my cooperating teacher last year and goes to my church. This block was made pre-Cricut. My husband pretty much free handed the Santa and I etched it.

The Snowflake ornament is from the Winter Lace cartridge. I don't have vinyl, so I use contact paper to make my cuts. The Nativity ornament is from the Inspired Heart cartridge. Both ornaments are etched using Armour Etch. I used silver Rub n' Buff on both to make the etching stand out more.

It looks like I am getting better at taking pictures. Woo Hoo!

Holy Family Glass Block

Well, I didn't get to take pictures yesterday. Mom and I had to run to Enid to pick up some items. We did alot of shopping yesterday and now have several ideas for more crafts. 

Here is the Holy Family Etched Glass Block. I think it will be one of my favorites. I actually collect Nativity's, so this will fit right in. (Yes, I made one for myself, but it is available to purchase.)

Well, I discovered I need to wear black clothes when I take these pictures. I know for next time. I wonder if I can find some tips for photographing my stuff.
