So darn busy...

Hey Crafters!
I have been so busy lately with barely any time for my blog... well I am officially back! 

Yea.. Yea.. I know I said that my last post but at the time I didn't realize my new computer didn't like my old camcorder. I was able to get a quick post but not an entire video uploaded. I have a new camcorder... some new projects and again.. I AM BACK!!

Looking forward to crafting for you again!

Artist Trading Cards

I just discovered Artist Trading Cards and they are cool!

Artist Trading Cards (or ATCs) are miniature works of art about the same size as modern baseball cards or 2 ½ X 3 ½ inches (6cm X 9cm), small enough to fit inside standard card-collector pockets, sleeves or sheets.The cards are usually traded or exchanged rather than sold.

Here are a couple that I experimented with...
Drop me a comment if you have tried them also. I would love to see them!

Enjoy & Happy Craftin'

My Craft Room....

I love this room!! I have never had a place all for ME and I love it!!

Birthday time!

It is my son's 16th Birthday coming up and here are the invites, gift bags and sign that I made. Since these were for Teen Boys, I had to refrain myself from making them too Girly!!

St. Valentine's Day gift boxes....

I am participating in a St. Valentine's Day Progressive Dinner with a group of friends and this is what I made for all the women.

The boxes were cut out with my Cricut using Tags, Bags, Boxes and More cartridge. I used a 12" x 12" sheet of paper and pressed the fill paper option. It was able to cut 2 boxes per page... very easy!! After I assembled them, I put a couple of pieces of Hershey's Nuggets inside.

SO Cute!
