Valentines Cards for 2010!

2010-02-12T14:05:00.001-05:00

I finished my 2010 valentines cards! I really like them this year. They're not my normal style and I've been wanting to use the Basic Grey Blush pack for a long time.

Used Gypsy to weld one of the flowers from Paisley to a stem from WIMG and then turned and welded two hearts as leaves. I cut the entire flower shape out of cardboard and then cut the flower pieces individually. I used the Coffee ZIG writer to outline and shade the cardboard edges of the flower. The butterflies are just the heart/leaf cut tuned upside down and I attached the center and lifted the wings.

Almost a year

It has been almost a year since my last post. I am just getting back into cards and scrapbooking after a long hiatus due to home remodeling. I'll have some things posted in a few days.

So glad to be back...

Robert Frost Poem

2008-12-30T10:14:00.003-05:00

I made this for my dad for Christmas; he is so hard to shop for and I wanted to give him something he would really love. This is his favorite poem.

CD Calendar

2008-12-27T09:32:00.004-05:00

It seems like I never make things for myself, except when I scrapbook, but I made this CD Calendar for my desk at work.

Side-view of how the CD case is set up. The rest of the months are stored in the bottom.

I've only made it through April, but at least it gives me a few months to finish!

Etching is ADDICTIVE

I made these ornaments and plates this weekend, it has been fun using vinyl and cutting shapes from the Christmas Cheer cartridge on my cricut.

Halloween Cards 07 and 08

October 2007, I hosted a baby shower for my sister at my house. Neither of us wanted to have the traditional shower, so we just had a Halloween party at my house with my mom's side of the family, and at the end, my sister opened presents. Below is the invitation I made for the event, as well as our Halloween cards for this year.

Fall Flowers

I have wanted to make a bouquet since I first saw one on the Cricut message board. This is my first one and I'm really happy with how it turned out.

A place for everything scrappy...

2008-10-08T15:55:00.000-04:00

So I've decided to finally live with the idea that I can post my scrappings and craftings online. I do a bit of everything, but most is papercrafted. I can't draw so I finally learned that I could cut a piece of paper to look any way I wanted...

Happy scrapping!
