Birthday Gift & Card


So my daughters were invited to a birthday party.  And after working a long day, I forget to pick up a card and a bow for a gift.  So I improvised.  I made the card with letters that I bought at Close to my Heart.  All paper was purchased at Michael's.  The gift was wrapped with girl colored wrapping paper and since I had forgotten the bow, I made some rosettes and used my Cricut cartridge, Art Philosophy to make the rose. It turned out very nice and was more personalized. My daughters were so excited and happy to be taking this card and gift.  Hope you enjoyed also!

Every month at Michael's we have an all day crop.  We have 3 wonderful ladies that come and make it a fun day.  Barb who has been coming for a very long time.  Lorie and Rose who recently started coming.  Yesterday we had our monthly crop and these ladies received these bags that I made with the Cricut cartridges.  October 31st and Straight from the Nest.  They were filled with lots of goodies for them.  Enjoy!

CTMH Halloween Cards


 Autumn is my favorite season.  And I especially love Halloween.  These cards I made tonight.  I used some new paper that I bought and the Beware stamps from Close To My Heart.  Very simple and easy to make. But they look like you spend hours making them.  I hope you enjoy!

Frienship Cards



These are some cards that I was working on yesterday.  I love the way they came out.  To make the trees I used the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge from Close to my heart. Available here.  The trees looked too plain, so I used the Imaginisce i-rock gem setter and added some bling to them.  And it came out very cute.  I love the way it turned out.  The stamp is a clearanced stamp that I bought at Michael's.  And the little leaves were punched out with a small punch that I also purchased at Michael's.  Enjoy!

Fun Folds Halloween Card


This is a card that I made on Saturday at Michael's Crop Night.  I love Halloween and I enjoyed making it.  I hope you enjoy!

Fall Pumpkin Box



This is a pumpkin that I cut out with my Pazzles.  I love the way it turned out.  I stamped and embossed it with the stamps from Close To My Heart (Item #C1503). It can be found here.  I also used the  Fall Pumpkin Pattern found at MyScrapChick.com.  You can find that pattern here. I hope you enjoy.

Altered Picture Frame

So I haven't posted in several days.  I have been very ill.  But I have still found time to craft a little.  This is a picture frame I made for a very special girl that I have come to love. She is a wonderful crafter and I enjoy teaching her when she signs up for my Michael's Paper Ed Classes.  The flowers were cut out with the Cricut Art Philosophy Cartridge sold by Close To My Heart.  It can be found here.  I purchased the letter set from Lettering Delights.  You can find a link on the right side of my blog.  I printed them and cut them out by hand.   I hope you enjoy!

Easter Eggs

I was really hoping to craft yesterday and post some pictures.  But I wasn't able to do that.  Instead I stuffed 170 eggs (with the help of my family) for our Yolo County Seniors.  All in all, it went very well and we all had fun. :)

Ok people,  My life is finally normalizing down.  (I think)  It's time to start uploading my projects and keeping my blog updated.  (Hopefully!)  Here is a new class I will be teaching at Michael's.  It's called Sketched Out.  I love vintage and Paris, so that is the theme I used.  Hope you enjoy!
