I am still Alive!!

Hey everyone very sorry for everything I have not been feeling well and I just had no mogo to do any crafting. Then I started taking a few course and of course Christmas is a super busy time of the year for everyone! I hope to start making videos again in a week or 2 hopefully!
I did end up making this super cute card for a swap I am in on facebook. I think this card is so freaking cute!! And as an added bonus I used my cricut and the cartridge create a critter #2. The pattern paper I used is just random scraps from a SSS  kit. I hope to see you in the new year!
I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas filled with love and laughter!

Another Layout Share!!

Hello everyone!! I hope everyone is having a wonderful day!! My day is going pretty good as you can see I got some scrapbooking in today so that is always awesome!! Here is a layout I did of Bella and me at the park! it was a super fun day there! I love this park I need to go there more offend, I am sure Bella would not mind! lol

This was the first layout I did using the July scraptasic kit lol as you can tell I am getting behind in my kits! I think I will have to skip one so I don't get to far behind and that is way I love this kit clue you can skip or cancel at any time!

The July kit I got is super girly which i love but for some reason I had a hard time getting into it this time and that is way the layout again is super simple everything was from the kit but the house paper clip and the doily they can from the June kit.

Here is a few close ups!

  Thank you guys from spending the time to check out my blog!! I hope you all have a great day!!

Hey everyone here is just a quick layout share! This is just a very simple layout that I did of my dads wedding day! Don't they look cute!? They got married years ago but I felt like scraping this one again.. I think it is because I am running out of pictures!! lol I need to start taking more of them I just have not been in the mood to.
 
This layout was made from some scraps left from my scraptasic kit I think the June kit but not to sure.. I also thought that I would try out my close to my heart cricut cartridge Art Philosophy which I just have not had too much time to really look at it. I made the banner with this cartridge and the matching stamp set that the cart can with and I think it turned out really cute!!
I really love this cartridge it really has everything on it that you need! I would say out of all of my cartridges that this one would be my favorite!!

Thanks everyone for checking out my blog and stay tune cause I will be posting a giving away/challenge soon and I hope that you will want to join!
I hope you all have a great day!  

Hey guys! Today I am going to show you a home decor project!! I bought these flowers at wal-mart on clearance!! But I can see why they can in cute pots but they were falling apart :( At first I was going to glue the rope back on but decided not to so I was just going to pull the rope off and leave it!

Well as you see see that looked very boring so that only lasted a day before I had to change it, and then it hit me how silly I am cause I have this room full of stuff that I could use to make these pots super cute!!

So I went though all my ribbon and found this really cute lace and I also found these really cute butterflies that I had bought years ago and never found something to put them on. Well now I have!! I glue it all together with my hot glue gun and look how awesome they turned out!!

So remember if you are not to happy with how something looks then go though your stash and change it the the way that will make you love it!!

Thank you for checking out my blog! I hope you all have a great day!! Hope to see you soon!!

WOW!!! I can't believe how busy I have been lately!! And now I an a bit behind on all my crafts and some of the kits that I get!! lol it never really does end does it!! But on the plus side is that I have started making christmas gifts!! I am super happy about being on the ball with that this year!!

Here are some cards that I made a couple of weeks ago with what was left with my simon says stamp card kit. They are super simple but I think that they turned out pretty cute! 

Thanks for looking guys! I hope you have a great weekend!!

The Last Canvas For Now!

Hey everyone!! Here is the last canvas that I did this week and I am putting the stuff away today and giving it a break and maybe come back to it in a couple of weeks more likely a month or 2 :p...

This was the biggest canvas that I did it is a 12x12 and this one was a lot of fun to make too!! I really do seem to have more fun with 12x12 then with the smaller sizes... The paper I used for this canvas is from Prima The Song Bird collection the saying was cut out with my cameo and the saying come from there store], they have a lot of great saying on there and I can't wait to use more of them!!

I really did not add much to this canvas cause I thought the birds on this paper were really cute and that it did not need much more. I thought I would let the beauty of the saying and the paper work together on there own with very little help from me!

The only things that I added were the unknown flowers and there are a fewPrima ones in this one too but not many. I placed a little key charm and a cameo from recollections then the butterflies are from my favorite punch from Martha

Thanks everyone for checking me blog out! I will be post some cards that I made with the June Simon Says Stamp kit next!
I hope you all have a great day!!

The Frist Canvas!

Hey everyone! I am so happy that I have got off my butt and finally started this projected!! The big plus side is that I am using a lot of stuff that I have hoarded  for years!! lol The canvas are taking a little longer then I would like cause I really want to play with my kits and PL... But I am a very slow scraper and that is how I roll!

 I started off small 6x6 with the first one just to get my feet wet and to see how it was going to play out! A lot of stuff that I used was from my stash and I will try hard to tell you very thing that I used. The background paper is from My Minds Eye the In Bloom collection, most of all the flowers where ones that I had sold in my store, there was no brand name for them.

 
 The wooden bird cage is from Michaels that I got for $0.40 or something like that. The butterflies where punched out with 2 different Martha Steward punches.

The metal quote is made from Making Memories. 

The second canvas I did was also a 6x6. This canvas made me work for it! lol It was going good then shit happend and it went all south but in the end I think it turned out way better because of all the problems I had!

The back ground paper is the same collection as the first one and so is the butterfly punch. The flowers unknown as well. For the tree I used a Tattered Angels glimmer screen, the glimmer mists I used were Meadow Green, Lily Pad and Tattered Leather.

The gate was made using another Tattered Angles Glimmer Screen and I used modeling paste.

  

The quote is an old sticker that I have had for years! The sticker is from Creative Memories! I have not bought anything from them in forever!! 

That is all I am going to share with you guys today! I do have another one finished and one more on the way I do not know how many more I want to make but I think this will be a long haul project so I think after the next 2 I am going to take a rest so I don't get to behind in PL, scrapbooking kits and the card making kits as well that I am already behind in!! 

12x12 layout

Hey guys I did this 12x12 layout a few weeks ago but I wanted to share it with you guys!!

I did this layout for my project life. This is a picture I toke of myself in the month of june. I did not do to much to this layout cause the pattern paper already had a lot add to it so I kept it simple.

I added my journaling behind the photo cause like most scrapbookers I don't like the look of my handwriting. Plus it helped to make the photo look like it was not floating too much.

All the die cuts I used were cut from my sillouette cameo, The paper collection is from Simple Stories Year.o.graphy, the stickers I used are from the same collection. The one little enamel dot is from my minds eye boy crazy and I don't know where the washi tape is from.

Thank you guys for looking I hope to start doing some canvas this week so I will have pictures of them when I get them done.
I hope you guys have a great day!!
