WOW Craft Shows

Hi ladies, I have been so busy trying to get inventory made for upcoming craft shows. For those of you out there who have done this, you know its hard work. I wanted to show you some of my little goody jars that I made. You can use them for almost anything!!! I decided to make these three for the animal lovers to put their treats in them. They can also be customized with a name. I hope you ladies are having a FANTASTIC week. The weather here in NC has been a fabulous 80 degrees. AAHHHHH I here Summer right around the corner!!!!

Happy Birthday 4 x 6 Album

Well, its been a couple of weeks since I have posted anything for you guys. I am an Accountant, and as you know this time of the year is Caotic. I did manage to slip to the scrapping cove this weekend and make some items. This album is 4 x 6 and is a Happy Birthday theme book. Could be used for a girl or boy. I used mostley primary colors so it could work for both genders. The clown was a svg file I had from TBD. I stamped his face with Peachy Keen face stamps. Used my Cinch to bind it. Simple, but I wanted to show you a little of what I had a chance to do.

Scrappin Roots Monthly Layout Challenge

So Erin over at spantastikreations is haveing this FUN challenge that I just had to join. This months challenge is to make a 1 or 2 page birthday theme layout! I used some SVG files instead of my cricut. Hope you like it.

My First Video 3-D flowers

Ok, so here is the video that I was talking about in my last post. I'm new at this video thing, so bare with me as I learn how to make these better. I need to get me a tripod too, that probably would help keep my big hands out of the way... :) Any whooooo, Hope this helps explain the pics and instructions on my last post. And remember I'm a southern girl, so  you might here a little twang in there. Happy Crafting!!! Oh and you will also have to go and cut the music player off before watching the video.

3-D flower tutorial

Hi Ladies, I have been having so much fun today crafting. I hope you did too!! I made these cute flowers today for the top of an explosion box I was making, so I thought I would do a tutorial on how to make them. I have pictures and instructions, and I also did a video.... oh my gosh did I say video... Well this was my VERY first time trying to attempt the video thing. I'm not sure how to make the video so you can see everything without my big hands getting in the way, and the gnat that kept flying around me ( I had the door open while I was working today because it was SOOO nice outside). But I promise I will get better at it. Practice, practice, practice RIGHT? So I will put the video on here only if you promise not to laugh to hard at my bad blurry hands,my Southern draw, or at one point you cant see what Im doing because I got off camera...... so do you still want to see it???? Just know that the finished product is something you are going to want to get your hands in. So enjoy.

First punch eight circles from patterned paper.

fold and hot glue a pleat into seven of the circles. Fold the last circle into quarters, then open flat. Then hot glue a pleated circle to the center of the open quartered circle. Add the other pleated circles layering each one around the base circle to get the flower look. Add an expoxy sticker, bead, or brad in the center and you are done. I am having a hard time posting the video. So I think I will try it in a seperate post.

Blog Award

I was awarded the Liebster Award and was so thrilled to receive it!! I wanted to give a BIG THANK YOU to Amanda Salovich over at Scrap and Dash for giving me this award. She is SOOOO sweet, and I have enjoyed getting to know her on Facebook.

Shutter Card

Well I had been seeing these shutter cards poping up everywhere and I just knew that I wanted to try my hand in it. They were so different than the ordinary card. So I went to my scrapbook house ( which by the way I need to give it a name) and came up with this doozy. I made it more for an invitation to a party. Instead of writting sentiments in it to send out to someone, I thought it would be a great idea to invite friends for a birthday party or just a little get together. So I stamped inside the info of when ,were , and who. I think I'm going to make these for my daughters invites to her bday this year. Hope you like.
