I got a Cricut!

I got a new Cricut a few weeks ago and I love it! Of course I had to get the Hello Kitty cartridge. I made this notebook for myself! It was so easy to cut out my name and the kitty. I also added some paper in the pen so it will match.

In Love with The Greeting Farm

I'm in love with the stamps from The Greeting Farm! I got some stamped images in a swap I did on SCS. I used this cute little girl to make a birthday card for my mother in law. I just love how cute she it! I used Crystal Effects on her sunglasses to make them shine. I also used some flowers I got in the swap.

Altered August Exchange

Here is a picture of the goodies I made for the Altered August Exchange on SCS. I made a notebook like the ones I posted before using my Crop-a-dile. I also covered a card tin and a cd tin. I love those little CD tins. I use them to store my nesties. I can finally post these because my reveal is over and I'm not spoiling anyone's surprise!

Bind it Notebooks without a Bind it all!

Here are several of the mini notebooks I've made with my crop a dile. I love this idea and I can't wait to make more of them! You have to check out the link I posted on the last post because these things are so easy to make!

Wanting a Bind It All

I have been wanting a Bind-it-all for a while now. I still haven't broken down and bought one but I did run across this great resource for making post it note holders with the spirals without a BIA! You just use the crop-a-dile. I was so excited to find this and I've gone mini-notebook crazy. I promise to post pictures soon!

Just Back from the Beach

I just got home from Destin tonight. I don’t have any new cards to share right now but I’ll be stamping again soon! I wanted to share a picture I took of the sunset while I was at the beach! I’ve been studying a lot about photography lately and I wanted to share.

Go With the Flow

Yes, I know this one is a little twisted. But anyone who knows me will appreciate this one. I used pink and brown for my color combo. I also pulled out some ribbon that went well with these colors. I stamped the brush image with Versamark on the brown layer. I also added a little bling to the toilet.

Love You the Most

This one is a plain, simple little card. I wanted to add some buttons or something to it but just wasn't happy with the way it looked. So I just left it as is. I colored her with my Copics. I don't know how I lived without those markers. I'm going to have to keep an eye out for another sale at Hobby Lobby and stock up on some more!

Fisherman from Rock the Farm

I made this card with the little fisherman from the Rock the Farm stamp set from The Greeting Farm. I am so proud of this card! When I started I just stamped this little guy and colored the image with my Copics. I normally plan the card out before I start, but not this time. After coloring him I picked out some colors that went well with him. I also used the CB to emboss the caramel layer to make it look a little like fish scales. After kicking ideas around my wonderful husband suggested a hook. He pulled out some craft wire he uses in his model car building and made me some hooks. He also gave me the idea to put the fibers around the top of the hook. I stuck a brad through and attached it to the ribbon that way because I didn't want to glue it. I love this little guy. Too bad I don't know any fishermen to send it to.

Rock the Farm

Have you seen the stamps from The Greeting Farm? I saw them and fell in love with them. I just ordered a few stamps from them to make sure I liked the quality and I love them! You cut them out yourself and them come mounted on cling foam. I like them that way because I put them on transparencies, put those in a page protector, and them they all go in a binder. It takes up a lot less space that way!

Anyways, this is the first card I made with my new stamps. I love this little girl and there was a boy with a fishing pole that came with this set too. Check back in the next couple of days for that one (it is my all time favorite). I used my nesties to cut out the ovals and pulled out some more of that DP I'm trying to use. I have a feeling you will be seeing my DP for years to come! lol I colored this farm girl with my copics. It reminded me of FarmTown that I play on Facebook all the time. So I had to make a card for all my Farmtown friends!

Um......Happy Thoughts?

Here is another card I made the other day. I'm not really crazy about it but I now have 4 of them to send out. I think my mojo is off a little since I have not been feeling well. I keep trying though!
