A little fun outside the craft room.

Hi everyone!  I know this is a card happy blog most of the time but sometimes I like to share some of the other projects I've been working on.  I'm always happy when I can pull my crafty self out of the craft room to work on something that's just a little outside the box.

Last Sunday I had the opportunity to get crafty with the least craftiest person I know....my husband Tony.  For the most part, he keeps a safe distance from my crafty space.  He likes what I do and occasionally requests a card....or a cake for one of his friends.  But when it comes to getting his hands into the glue well....that's a NOT!

On Sunday I loaded up my poor, neglected little Cricut, some adhesive backed vinyl, some of that fabulous press and seal and off we went to work at his hangar.  In case you didn't know, my husband is a pilot and his hangar is his equivalent of....well....my craft room.  Probably not quite as costly....but we won't tell him that.  ;)

The project he had for me Sunday was an old golf cart that he and his buddies worked, painted and recovered.   It was a special project for a nice lady who spends all her spare time beautifying the airport by planting flowers.  This was to be her new "flower" cart.

Unfortunately I didn't get any before pictures of the old rustbucket, but here is all painted with a new seat. My husband wanted me to make it fun and tone down the white a little.

Well......I can do fun, but toning it down.....not so much.

While I worked on adding tons of colorful flowers to the front, my husband worked on the sides. 
(I do not see that crooked 8.....I do not!)

Encouraging their friend to bring her dog along for the ride, my husband added a dog on the other side. He was disappointed that my Cricut didn't have a fire hydrant......smelling flowers would have to do.

This smile says it all!


Have yourself a gorgeous weekend!
