Making Cheesecakes!

As you've probably already surmised, my husband and I like to ride bikes. We have signed up for a ride in September that is a benefit ride for the Make-a-Wish Foundation. To participate, my husband and I each have to raise $100 for the foundation. I decided to make and sell cheesecakes to earn the money. Below are some of my creations. One of my favorite things is making them look absolutely irresistible. And, trust me, they taste as good as they look!

More Cutout Projects


I've been having fun with my Cameo! I made these cute little cut-out cards, which I found in the design store. I started with the cat and the dog, then just kept going! There are more, so check back!



I decided to try a "Print & Cut" project. I downloaded these adorable little animal images and created a Print & Cut with them. I was really impressed with how precisely the Cameo cut around these little images!



I love this! It's so true! This is vinyl that I put on my wall. The wall is a little textured, but it seems to be sticking just fine.

Impossible Tile

I saw this quote and really liked it. I cut it out in vinyl on my Cameo and put it on a 4-inch tile I picked up at a thrift store for $.50.

It already is inspiring me--like when I paid the bills today. :)


I made a matching one for my sister-in-law for her birthday, yesterday. It was great to be able to make something quickly that has meaning. She loved it!

Wooden Blocks Americana


This sign is sitting on my piano. I made it a few weeks ago out of wooden blocks, which I painted white and then glued scrapbook paper on one side. Once it was good and dry, I Mod Podge-d vinyl letters on them, which I cut on my Cameo. I think it's the only patriotic decoration I have! I clearly need more.
