fall crafting

Today was a very fun filled craft day. I was able to work on some more of my apple cider sliders for co-workers and crochet this spooktacular owl.

Hope everyone is enjoying the fall weather and crafting the nights and days away.

Apple Cider Slider Card

Here is a quick slider card I made using the wild card cartridge. I made this for the recent Pink Stamper challenge. The challenge was to make something for someone else. I plan on giving this as a Halloween treat to a co-worker.

Thanks for looking!

wedding card

Wow! It feels like forever since I posted something. Ok maybe it HAS been forever lol but hopefully in the next few weeks I will have some fun and exciting projects to share with you all.

Just wanted to showcase a quick card I made for my friend's wedding this past weekend.  The wedding was a lot of fun and the bride really loved her card. She said she recieved a lot of cards that looked the same and this one was very special. That is the number one reason I like to make a handmade gift or card, nobody else will ever have the same thing :)

Hope everyone is doing well and happy crafting!

CRICUT IMAGINE DAY~!

Wow! Robyn did a great job on her USTREAM brodcast. Thanks for sharing!

Even though I don't plan on purchasing tonight I do plan on watching at midnight on hsn! However, I was even more excited to see that HSN is having their 24 hour craft day with Martha Stewart Halloween and TIM HOLTZ!!!!


What an exciting time to be a crafter...
Happy viewing and shopping!

Eye Miss U

So after my brief brush with Christmas I am back into full on Halloween mood. The cool air and the rainy weather are helping that tremendously! ( I will act like I did not see that it will be back in the 90's next week)

This was a fun card I made using the October 31st cart and some Martha Stewart punches and stamps. I love me some Ms. Stewart. I added some bling to make the eyes sparkle!

I bought the great eyeball paper at this new scrapbook and jewelry store opening downtown!  I am lucky enough to have a Joann in my town as well, but I think I will try and go there as often as possible. I may pay a bit more, but it is worth it to buy from  from people who share your passion and enthusiasm. I wish Sherre the best of luck in her new shop and a successful opening this weekend!



Thanks for looking,

Spider Luminary

Here is a quick spider luminary I made tonight. I tried cutting the paper bag on the cricut itself but after it got crumpled in my machine I just said forget it! lol


This is one of my favorite projects to date. So simple and versatile.  The possibilities are endless with any cut you make. :)

Supplies:
Cut the spider from October 31st at 3.5 inches.
Used a punch around the top of lunch bag.
Glued spider inside lunch bag.
Added a candle, lit it and enjoyed.

Thanks for looking.
