Gluten Free Alphabet/Celiac

Okay so I had a request for these so I made a few. I know they won't be a hugely popular file. So I have created three, but I am only going to offer one as a freebie here. If you know of anyone who may be interested in this file, please send them to my blog to download it.

Yes, I do not eat gluten. My hubby was a gem when I found him. When I told him I couldn't eat pizza and most beers, he said .. okay, more for me. Most men I met said. hmmm.. what are we gonna eat? So off he and I went. Enjoying different things. It is always a treat at my birthday time because he comes up with very creative ideas for non-gluten birthday cakes. And the man loves to shop and he can read a label almost as fast as I can.

So I hope someone can use the file and enjoy! The "No Gluten Free Symbol" is one a piece cut, and the alphabet cuts all in one piece and the G F are seperate cuts for on top of the GF image. Password is vacation. These File will be available on Paperthreads soon!

Below are the other two files uploaded at Paperthreads. They should be in the store in the next few days.

Enjoy!

Keeping Cool

Okay so it is warmmmmm here already. And so this file seemed appropriate to work on.

Keeping Cool comes in a few pieces. The Words and the "Streams of air" and the base of the fan. Also included are the blades of the fan so you can give the fan more depth. If anyone has a project for this, I would love to see it. My first thought was a picture I have of my dog in my son's little kid pool. Standing on the side of the pool is my son looking a little perturbed that this dog decided to lay in his pool. Okey Doke. If you don't know already these files are for your personal use. Please do not share or alter them and claim as your own! Here is the link This link is no longer available as a freebie, but will be available on Paperthreads soon.

Thank you to everyone for the great comments on my blog change. I was so frustrated trying to change the background green color of the old one that I decided to change the whole thing. Bright and sunny for the summer! Password is vacation.

Well I have a few files to work on. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! And has a great start of the week!

Enjoy!

My featured file at Paperthreads this month. I thought I would share.

If you are interested in this file it can be purchased HERE. Come with a few pieces, but most people have sent me comments that the ball is perfect for what they were working on. So you never have to use all of my file, just some of it works for me! I try to create a file that is complete with many pieces and can be used in many ways.

Leavin' On a Jet Plane

So here are three pieces. One is a solid cloud. The next is the verbage in a cloud and the letters have been stenciled to make one cut. And then the plane. Hope someone can use it! This file is no longer available for download.

Thank you so much for all the great ideas for softball. Honestly, I should have asked for help sooner cause I have been wondering about it for a while now. Wooohooo! I really appreciate the thoughts.

This weekend my hubby and brother are building a front patio for us. I am looking forward to it. Only two weekends til our annual squirtgun party! I think this is our 7th. I am nervous cause I haven't had many rsvps, but it will be fun no matter how many people come. We usually average about 60-70 people. Lots of water guns and I rent an adult size slide. This year it is a "Slip - n - Slide" on Steroids. Should be lots of fun and a good break to the heat. Password for Freebie Files is still vacation.
