Rockwell Studios: July 2011
http://cropacabana.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 27, 2011. It's my friend's Birthday so I made her this little card. Simple enough for a beginner to tackle. This 2 sided paper is from Gartner Studios, Bon Voyage - World Map. This paper flower is made with stacked scallop circles all 1.5 inches, sprayed wet and scrunched, un-scrunched and then attached together by a center brad. Once you have the brad in, you can fluff it up as you like and let it dry completely before adding to your layout or card. Another cake is out of the oven! This ...

Rockwell Studios: Sushi Fondant Cake
http://cropacabana.blogspot.com/2012/02/sushi-fondant-cake.html
Friday, February 17, 2012. This was fun to do, but made me hungry. I had a friend call and ask me to make a Sushi fondant cake. It sounded like a great challenge and I couldn't resist giving it a try. I started by making the soy sauce dish, which is fondant with a bit of added gum paste to make it harden. I cut out a circle and laid it over an overturned dish. It was left to dry for 3 days. You can even eat the dishes. The shrimp, wasabi and ginger are all fondant. February 21, 2012 at 12:21 PM.

Rockwell Studios: February 2011

Thursday, February 24, 2011. I give my apologies in advance. I seriously need a new camera. Mine has died a slow and pathetic death, tattered images marred with eerie bars of light where none exist in the real world. I swear my last video had The Milky Way running through it, complete with stars. I'm really not sure what, specifically, caused it to stop working but I'll assume it was "delicate". Yes, I've tossed it into bags while vacationing, dropped it and dragged it around the beach all summer. Thursd...

Rockwell Studios: March 2011
http://cropacabana.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 27, 2011. So I had to make a cake. Not just any cake, but a dirt bike cake. I have only been making fondant cakes for about 4 months now and learned all I know through trial, error and the Internet. Big Red Pig) what he calls his bike. I accidentally. Added an apostrophe, but didn't have another sign made up and dried to correct it. Oh well. they were very happy and "Paul" loved it so much he didn't cut the cake at the party. He saved it till the next day. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Rockwell Studios: April 2011
http://cropacabana.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 19, 2011. I had to wrap a Boxed CD set for my Husband's Birthday last year and wouldn't you know I'm unable to just do it like a normal person. Instead I altered a cigar box to do the job. Click on images to see larger sizes. The pole is a twig and I added a real fishing fly to the string (with the hook cut off). but I see it's missing. On the inside there is more of the same idea. I also added a little. It made a nice cushioning for the CDs. Here is the card. simple but effective....So, n...

I plan to spend much more time in the art room. I hope you can too! Linking this project on. Clean and Scentsible: The Creative Spark. Lil' Luna Link party.

Thursday, February 23, 2012. Disney Autograph - Smash book. This is the second of our kids smash books, you can see the first one here. This young girl is almost 7 and loves Tinker Bell. She decided to go with an upcycled cover using an old Peter pan book I had. the book was very big, so we cut this scene out of it. She also loves the Princesses and we printed cardstock with the images of her favorites. I've only shown a few here. We also added some quote pages cut from a Princess book. What a great idea!
