Woodland Creatures Baby Shower!

I did these for my sister who is having a baby girl in April!! She is having a baby shower soon and the theme is woodland creatures.

After I did the shower invitation I decided to do a thank you card for her to match. 


Then while I was at it and I was having so much fun I did a birth announcement. 


If you like these and would like me to personalize them for you let me know. Ill do each one for $10 and $25 for all three! I can also make them in blue if you are expecting a boy!

New Beginnings

We have blogged about our religion several times here on this blog and we have some links to find out more information
  I'm a Mormon. with this link you can find out a lot more about what I believe specifically and here you can find out more about our church.
Today I am going to blog about an organization we have in our church for youth. A few months ago I was asked to be a leader for the young women in our ward. As a church we have something every year for the young women called New Beginnings. This is where the Theme that we will be focusing on all year in introduced, and new girls that will be turning 12 and joining young women's are introduced to what we do.
This year our Theme is Arise and Shine Forth  this comes from a scripture in Doctrine and Covenants that says "Arise and shine forth, that thy light may be a standard for the nations" the link above is an article how we are going to use this through out the year to teach the youth about being an example to others. 
So what does this have to do with our craft blog well let me tell you... 
I found these printables on this blog and a few ideas from pinterest and came up with

these. They are pillow cases that we are going to give the young women at New Beginnings. 

Here is how I did it
Super easy I found my image
Then I got these fabric transfers at Wal-mart for about $7 
and my pillow cases for 2 for $4 also at Wal-mart. 
Just follow the instructions for the transfers that are in the box iron on your image to your pillow case and 

you get some super cute pillows! Now the girls can wake up each morning and have a reminder to arise and be an example to others!
The fabric transfers are super easy to use and can be used for so many things!

I also made some invitations for the girls to give their parents to invite them to new beginnings here is how they turned out...
