Ideas For You
Today I had a house full of kids who were begging me to bake. I wasn’t in the mood to make traditional cookies or cupcakes so I thought what could we do that I would also enjoy? Whoopie Pies! Making whoopie pies has been something I have always wanted to do but hadn’t gotten around to yet. It was so fun and I am glad I surrendered to the request. Here is a picture of mine – the kids were ‘creative’ also. Up next – brownie pops.
Here is the recipe for Vanilla WHOOPIE PIES with sprinkles.
The weekend before Christmas I did a workshop with Free Arts tween and teen girls. We worked with the ideal of visual art memory journals. Because it is time to think about New Year’s Crafts, Journals and logging events and activities. What will you keep note of, of this past year? I created a book with the New Year in mind. I will use this as a journaling book for the next few weeks as I write and doodle about 2011.
I used my Cuttlebug and the Clockworks Embossing Folders to pull the details of this journaling book together. Once it is complete I will bind it on my YourStory. Here’s to the New Year.
Happy crafting xoxo

I LOVE the newest Imagine Cartridge called Notebook Doodles. Oh what fun I had. I took an old pair of shoes, used white Gesso to cover them, allowed that to dry. I printed the little character designs onto iron on transfer paper. I then cut up the iron on paper and transferred it on to yellow cotton fabric and attached these patches to the shoe with glue. I then used Ranger Enamel Assents in black to outline the patches.
Happy crafting xoxo
