My version of the first tag from the 12 tags of Christmas

I cut 2 tags from the Tim Holtz tag die one out of chipboard and one out of light blue textured cardstock. Then i used the cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder on the blue tag then glued to the chipboard tag added some white ink over the top of the snowflakes. I cut the word noel and the greenery and the little banners form sure cuts a lot. The pinecones i got at Hobby Lobby in the christmas section the were on stems with the red berry stamens i cut them off the stem and glued them down then add the red stamens and some green stamens i had and i added some paper flowers i made. The tag string it made of muslin i tore into strips and inked with the new Tim Holts seasonal distress ink.

Halloween Card

I dont do many cards but today one of my little boys asked if i could print him out a Halloween coloring sheet so i found him one and seen this cute coloring page with the spiders on it,so I decided i would use it for a card. I colored each spider first then used the Martha Stewart glue writer to fill in each spider and picked a cordnating glitter for each spider and made them sparkle they are to cute. Added a strip of ribbon and a spider to finsh it of. Here is the wbsite where i got the coloring sheet. http://www.lil-fingers.com/coloring/index.php 

Little Halloween Tag

Canvas Welcome Sign

For this sign I used one 6x12 Prima Donna Downey Canvas refill page and i used my homemade glimmer spray and a flowers spray made by Anna Fearer @ http://annafearer.blogspot.com/ and a homemade picket fence mask.I cut the mask out of a transparency using my cricut exp 2 and the Heritage cart it is cut at 3 inchs I sprayed the back of the mask with quilt basting spray to help it stick to the canvas.Then I sprayed the canvas with 3 colors of glimmer spray Mellow Moss,Bermuda Bay and Crushed Curry dried with my heat gun and cut of the word welcome with the Ashlyn Alphabet cart. it is cut at 1 1/2 inchs I used Fabri-Tac to glue the letters down and the rhinestones in the corner.You could also decorate the back side and have 2 signs.

Another flower tutorial

12x12 Layout I did for my mom

I did this lay out for a bottle swap hop,but we didnt have enough ladies wanting to partcipate so do to that the hop was cancelled but i wanted to share my project anyway.In the hop we were going to use things in our bottles for a project of anykind so i made this layout i used the dress sticker from my bottle i will be putting this layout in a shadow box so my mom can hang on her wall.

Little Album i made for the wallet sized school pictures

I used chipboard for front and back cover,then covered with school paper,lots of stickers for all different brands.I used a bookring to hold it together so i can add more school pics.for each grade. I started out wanting to do it on tags but they were just to small so i cut the inside pages out of craft cardstock and coverd with paper instead.

4x4 mini album

Here is a mini i have been working on this week. I used my minds eye paper and some K&Co paper, The pages are made from envelopes and the inserts are just cardstock cut to size and pattern paper on it. Then i glittered the edges of the inserts. And for the cover i just cut squares from the same pattern paper on the inserts. I am thinking i may do a blue and green one even though i never use these mini albums i just like making then. I may start giving them away.

So tell me what you think of this one, we are allowed to make up tp 4 of theses tiles.

Stick Pins

I have been seeing people making them,so I thought i would give it a try. I used some straight pins and beads i had.I also used some small felt and plastc flowers i had to. Just glued the beads and  flowers on with Glossy Accents. I also used alcohol ink on the stick pin tops to change the color.

Project for Cricut Circle Magazine Challenge

The challenge was to make a project using 3 cuts form the new Cricut Circle Cartridge (Cricut Everyday). So I decided to go with an Altered Domino sense I have been playing around with them this past week. First I cut out Cricut head at 1 inch then the Circle Logo at 3/4 inch glittered them with Martha Stewart Golden Beryl glitter. Then i cut out the pharse (Gone Buggy) at 1 inch and glittered it with Martha Stewart Onyx glitter. Then i brushed the Domino with embossing ink and heat embossed with silver glitter Zing embossing powder let cool then brushed a coat of Triple Thick Gloss Glaze let dry. Then I glued down all the Cricut cuts with Glossy Accents let dry. Then I used 8 Swarovski Crystals I Alcohol Inked them with Citrus Alcohol ink I also glue them in the hole on the back of the Domino with Glossy Accents, Let all the Glossy Accents dry then brushed 2 more coats of Triple Thick Gloss Glaze over the whole Domino.

Altered Dominoes

Here are 3 I have made so far. I used alcohol ink on the first one then stamped on it with silver Stazon,I put 2 little nut things i got at Homedepot.They remined me of gears.I used Glossy Accents to glue them down and coverd the whole top with Glossy Accents.I used silver embossing powder for the sides and back then added some colored stones to the little holes on the dominoe.Then I put 2 coats of Triple Thick Gloss Glaze I got at Hobby Lobby,It reminds me of Glossy Accents but you brush it on.......... For the 2nd and 3rd Dominoes I printed some art I bought of Etsy cut them down, glued the paper down with the Triple Thick let it dry embossed the sides and backs put stones in the holes. Then put 2 more coats of Triple Thick.

Butterfly Mini Album
