Santa card

2011-11-01T22:54:00.000-07:00

Trying to make some cards! :) I love trying out new cartridges.
I used Santa's Village for the patterned paper and the Santa. On the white paper I embossed snowflakes to add a little sparkle :)
Thanks for coming to look.

August Crafting

2011-09-12T09:20:00.000-07:00

This was a birthday car made for my step-dad. I have a hard time with cards for men.

My DD is a Girl Scout and we had to make swaps for hats at summer camp. We used shrinky dinks and beads.

Thanks you card was made for someone at Girl Scout camp. I used UDEE for the 1ts or 2nd time and perfect pearls... which I don;t use much.

My mom LOVES owls. It was her birthday in August so I made this card for her. I had just gotten Flower Shoppe so I really wanted to try it out.

Thanks for looking!!

No crafting for me :(

2011-08-01T19:49:00.000-07:00

This past month or so I have not been doing hardly any crafting. I feel crazy busy and unmotivated to craft. I have been on the Cricut board but it is hard to craft when people complain about this or that. I do believe everyone can have an opinion...
I had to send back my E2 last week and hoping to get my new one this week.
I am hoping to craft and post something tonight! I want my mojo back. I may not have been the most talented but it was my nice happy place.

Teacher appreciation

2011-05-22T14:16:00.000-07:00

I saw something very similar to this on the Cricut blog or somewhere recently and I loved the colors and the way it was made. It was great being able to 'lift' something for a last minute gift :)

Scrapbook Island San Jose

2010-08-02T23:25:00.000-07:00

Wow! I went to the best Scrapbook Store while I was on vacation! They seemed to have all sort of things I always look at online but then never buy. I gave in and bought a few of them but with 2 young kids with me I didn't get a full tour of the store. Luckily my hubby works in San Jose from time to time so if I need anything I will just send him. The ladies there were just so kind. When we were leaving the store they stopped my kids (age 4 & 6) and told them they were so good in the store that they let them pick out stickers from a big box of stickers. So kind! My kids were really excited :)

This is just a pic of a few of the things I bought :)

Vinyl labels on DVD players

2010-08-02T19:23:00.000-07:00

So weird... I have no idea why some of the images turned sideways... hmmmm

Well my kids got DVD players for their birthdays. I labels them and their remotes so there was no way of a mix up. I did the small symbol on the inside in case they were in their cases and we could just open them up instead of taking the cover off.

Thanks for looking!
