Can you help us make a 'Music Movie'?"
My two oldest curly headed girls ask which followed with begging, nagging, pleading, ect.
"Sure girls! I will stop everything and do that right now because it would mean a lot to you and the dishes, laundry, dinner, can wait!"
I replied with gusto.
......ahem.....ok so I didn't actually say that. In fact, I put them off for weeks and weeks!!!! Then my BEAUTIFUL niece, Taylor, who is uuuber talented came to visit last weekend and we decided to make their little dream come true. We found a perfect little setting down in the canyon by the Shoshone Falls, took a few 'fashion' pics of each other for fun, shared an oriental chicken wrap with burnt lemon-aid & some tots, then surprised the girls by taking them out of school early. They picked their song. I was kinda pulling for an Imagine Dragons song since they are my FLAVORITE band ever...but didn't push it because I really wanted them to pick what THEY wanted. They chose one that really tickled them pink. It was a "scary one". They are hilarious. For being pretty girly-girls they sure do like creepy things/stories. Probably the 2 million episodes of Scooby-Doo they were raised on. Anywho....they chose their song and then dreamed up a few story-lines/costume/makeup ideas. This is where Taylor and I stepped in. If Tris had her way there would have been more blood and horror. The concept of "creepy dolls" was the wiener.
THE STORY:
Two little girls are captured and turned into personalized dolls for an evil forest witch (taylor). They try many times to escape, but never succeed. They dream about their mother and wish to be with her. The witch notices this, and grows to understand and love. The witch then lets the girls go to be with their mother (me). The reunion is sweet and with one touch of the Mother's hand they are transformed back to normal. But the witch spy's on the girls to see how their life is and the girls notice her and gladly take her into their world of happiness.

<br /></div>
-I
made this pillow with the "Bah Humbug" graphics from Lettering
Delights.com website. This set is FREE on my blog December 5-7 in loo of
the Blog Hop that is happening. I used my sweeeet ZING Cutter Machine
for the first time when making this and it was so so fun! I am in the
process of moving....bluh.... and so my goal is to get the 'essentials'
all unpacked and then my reward is that I get to play with my
fancy-shmancy cutter!!<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="font-size: large;"> </span></b><u><b>SUPPLY LIST:</b></u></span></div>
<ol style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Steam-A-Seam Adhesive Paper <i>(light-bond)</i></span> </li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Fabric scraps of chosen colors.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Large piece of White fabric for pillow (mine measured 13.5x9.5)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Cotton to stuff it with.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Thread to match corrdinating fabrics.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Needle and Thread.</span></li>

</ol>
. . . . . . . . . . . . . .<br />
<br />
1. If you are
going to make multiply pillows, like for Christmas gifts, then you will
want to cut your chosen fabrics into 12.5x12.5 squares and your
Steam-A-Seam Adhesive Paper into 12x12 squares. IF you are only making
one then you will just need scraps large enough for each piece. Your
fabric needs to be slightly larger than your adhesive paper. (image

SIDE
NOTE: I apologize that my brain was not working correctly when I made
this. I was in the process of boxing up my house for the big move. I
placed/taped some of my pieces to the cutting mat with the fabric side
on top and then some pieces with the paper side on top. Please note that
if you have the paper on top <i>(as shown in most of my pictures)</i>
you will get a mirror image of the graphic or letter. Just keep that in
mind. Sometimes that little trick comes in handy though.....moving on.<br />
<br />
2.
Based on the placement in your ZING computer program, place your pieces
accordingly. NOTE: I found it hard to keep track of the "top" of my
cutting mat so I used a permanent marker and mimicked the triangle on
the program by drawing it directly on my mat. This was a HUGE help! I
also found that if I sprayed my mat with a little adhesive spray that
really helped my pieces stay in place. Before you move on to taping them
down check, check, and then check again that you have them placed
correctly with what is seen on your screen.<br />

TAPE THEM DOWN!! I can speak from experience that if you do not it will
make a mess. I liked the blue painters tape because it came off easily
and I could reuse the strips.<br />

After all pieces were taped down I held my mat up to the window to find
the bottom right hand corner square where my red laser needs to be once
I am ready to cut. I marked it with a red dot so I could find it.<br />

I read the Zing Manual and tried cutting a little on the settings it
suggested and it did work, but I found that for me these setting worked
out a lot better. You may want to play around with some scraps first to
tweek yours as well.<br />

I was pretty skeptical that it would be able to cut out those tiny
little legs and eye holes without making a mess or not cutting through
all the way....I stand corrected.<br />

10. Here is a picture of the CORRECT way to place your fabric...FABRIC side UP!<br />

Just an example of what I meant when I said that placing the Fabric
side up or the Paper side up will cause a mirror-image result. <br />

12. Peel off your Steam-A-Seam paper and place your pieces where you will want them. DO NOT IRON YET!<br />

14. I used a blanket stitch to sew down all the edges of the pieces. I also chose to use matching thread for each color.<br />

15. When it came to the bug's legs I found that starting at that bottom
helped the little legs not lift and get mangled up. I tried a zig-zag
stitch over the whole leg and then a straight stitch along the edges.
Both worked about the same. <br />

Once you are done then you are ready to sew your front to your back and
leave about a 4 inch hold on side (I did mine on the bottom) so that I
could turn it inside out. Stuff your stuffing in this hole and then
whip-stitch that opening shut.<br />

Ya'll sick of fighting about candy with your kids after Halloween?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Introducing my solution:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>"GLENDA THE GOOD WITCH"</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Who is "Glenda The Good Witch"? <span style="font-size: x-small;"><i>(other than the perdy lady on Wizard of OZ) </i></span>Well at our house she is a nice Halloween Witch that saves my backside a few pounds each year! She collects candy in exchange for a little gift.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-books</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-crayons</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-necklace</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-stickers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-small toy</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-ect...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is how WE do it, but feel free to alter yours to fit <b>yo famila</b>. Once we get home from Trick-or-Treating the kiddos dump out all their <b>boodle</b> into a pile. They giggle with delight, chomp on a few pieces, trade and beg, and then they are given a sandwich size Ziploc bag that they can fill with their favorites. But they can only keep what will fit in that bag and so they fill that sucker up to the tip top! But it has to be able to zip shut. The rest of the candy is placed on the doorstep before bedtime. Then the childrens all go to sleep and dream about what little surprise "Glenda" will bring. </div>

All of the items I used were found at Michaels Craft Store and 50% off! Wrapped my straw wreathe, which beware makes a mess! I sat on my kitchen rug so that I could just take it out and shake it. The Skeletens came in a string so I just cut one off and used the rest to hang on my "mantle". The spiders came in a pack as well and so I have taped the rest on varies frames and such for a spooky suprize. One spider is hanging with some clear thread from my kitchen chandlier...still get's ME! I HATE SPIDERS! The D.O.A. tag came in a pack and suppose to be used to tie to your drinks at a party. I am going to use the rest to tie to a few gifts I have made as a gift tag. Eyeballs came in a pack (i bought 2) and just glued then on with a glue gun along with the spider. Tied my darling sweet crow down by wrapping some extra yarn around his feet. </div>

It truly touched me. Seriously could talk for hours on the awesomeness of it all. It really helps our children feel loved and apart of the family. It gives them treasured memories as well. And it's just plain ole' fun! I am trying to start a few new ones and one is a Halloween Pillowcase. We put them on October 1st for my kiddo's to sleep on, which they think is pretty stinkin' cool, and then on Halloween night they can pull them off and use them as their 'Trick or Treat' bags! You could make some for any other Holiday as well...hmmm...maybe a Valentines piller with a pocket for little love notes would be cute.<br />

As for the pattern I used...well...I just made it up as I went along. I did, however, find a link on Pinterest (of course) that has a really easy way to make them if you so desire. There is a link below for the PDF instructions and another link for a step by step video! But please ask any questions if needs be. I am always happy to help ya!<br />

I challenge you to start a new tradition too!<br />

I am fortunate enough to be friends with two AMAZING illustrators; Jillustration and Rani from <span style="color: purple;"><a href="http://letteringdelights.com/">letteringdelights.com</a></span>. I think that their website is a MUST not only for scrapbookers, card-makers, but for QUILTERS and hand embroidery! I plan on using more and more of their designs in my future endevors. You MUST check them out! Example of how I used some of their stuff below:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I LOVED Jill's "Smell My Feet" collection and wanted to make a Halloween wall hanging with it. And the colors are perfect. So simple! If you have made any of my patterns then you know how to trace and adhere for applique. That's all I did here. After I purchased this collection, which is only $4.00 for the whole bundle<span style="color: purple;"><a href="http://www.letteringdelights.com/clipart:smell_my_feet-8246.html" target="_blank"> - SMELL MY FEET -</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I simply printed them out and then blew them up to the size I desired. If you look closely you can see my 4 white squares in the quilt. Those squares FINISH at: 8.5 x 11. The checkered fabric I folded in half and ironed down then sewed it so it would make more of a flap for fun. This is our family's FAVORITE Halloween decoration by far! </div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I found this recipe from Pinterest and when I made it last year for Thanksgiving and it was a<span style="font-size: large;"> HIT!</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Y'all should make this so that your taste-buds can take a trip to <span style="font-size: large;">PARADISE!</span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I have made a recipe book for my family filled with all of our<span style="font-size: large;"> FAVS</span>. If the recipe isn't <span style="font-size: large;">FAB</span> then it doesn't make the book. So they are most definitely 'tried and true'. I type them up with this same format so they look <span style="font-size: large;">PERDY</span> in my book. And as a full sheet of paper it's easy to read. They are put in page protectors so you can wipe them clean easily after you have just slopped them with sauce dancing to Lady GaGa. I am not sure how to share a PDF file so that you can print it out, but I did share it as a photo. IF you really want the PDF file comment or email me and I will email it to you. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><u><span style="font-size: large;">ENJOY this blessed dip!!! </span></u></span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I really like having short hair. It's fun to play with and in just a few months you can sport a totally new style. I LOVE the following hair pics. The longer style has FABULOUS color and the shorter dooo is what I chose to do....yikes!!!! I am sitting here now with my Jim-Jammers on so no pic yet on my end result. NO WAY! I hope I can rock it as sweet yet edgy as the little model did. ZOIKS! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
IF I can't...I'll just lock myself in my sewing room and get back to work!!!! Seriously though...it's time for a NEW pattern!<br />

My seriously low budget film on how to paint stripes with NO jagged edges when you pull your tape off. Never you mind my chipped nail polish and Marlboro voice <i>(getting over a cold)</i>. Please ask questions if needs be.<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: large;">AFTER:</span></b><br />
Soooo...I kinda forgot to do a video, as I said I would, showing the pretty lines when you pull the tape off... Oops... But here are some pics that I hope will suffice. <br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The Discovery below is pretty awesome...so buckle up!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do your children or cute little niece and nephews giggle and play loudly...VERY loudly? Do they continue to play at the maximum volume even after you have asked nicely 20 times to turn it down a bit? And do they actually break the sound barrior while your baby is trying to take a nap? WELL....I have a solution.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tell them you have the COOLEST movie on Earth for them to watch. Tell them that you can only watch it if they have their brave panties on. Ask multiple times if they are <i>SURE</i> they can handle the mind blowing events that are about to happen...do all of this in whisper by the way. Once they take the 'bait' turn on JUMANJI. Then grab your camera, a cold drink of your preference, kick off your flippity-flops and enjoy 'the show'.</div>

Practically silent for almost 2 hours. Only the sound of a few gasps and flies buzzing in and out of their dropped jaws. </div>

I just saw a mommy fly giving a baby fly a piggyback! I really did, with my own eyes!" I giggled and shared in on this amazing discovery with OOO's and AWE's. Then 5 minutes later she runs up again and states, "Mom, she's STILL giving him a ride!" . . . That's when I lost it.

She actually gets her shoes on after you ask her the first time! Never had an issue with her lying either. BUT today she gave me a surprise. She really wanted to take her stuffed dog to her Sunday school class and was bummed when I said no. As we are getting ready to leave the big meeting room with ALL of the congregation moving about, Tris grabs the bottom of her dress and pulls it all the way up to her chest scrunching it into a ball..showing off her tights that didn't quite make it up over her undies..she reaches down into those saggy tights and pulls out that stuffed dog! "I guess I better not take this huh Mom?" I couldn't hold back and we all had a giggle.

Suddenly her tone turns to serious and concern. She asks, "Oh Zanny, will Doug eat my earrings?!" ...Doug is my cat. Round 10 of our giggle match erupted.
