Monogram Letter


This was for a friend. She bought the HUGE letter at Joann's. I used glitter paper, waxy twine, bottle caps, stickers and miscellaneous clips. I used Stampin Up Flowers and brads to add more 3-D effect. It's just randomly placed all over, perfect for a 10 year-old's room. I used a lot of decoupage and hot glue to keep it all together.

December Hostess Sneak Peak!



Decided to stick with Christmas even though it's kinda close! I used the polished stone technique for the card. Its shiny even though you cant see it in the picture. I decided since the technique was a bit easy that I would use up some scrap paper and do some tags! I used the Contemporary Christmas and Cute Christmas from Stampin' Up. Hope the girls like it!!!

Glass Blocks







These are so much fun! Lots of Vinyl and a combo of Sure Cuts A Lot and Cricut Cartridges. Just had to share!



Vinyl Ornaments

These are for my daughters school. The falcon is their mascot. I used Sure Cuts A Lot to do the mascot and the letters. It was super easy!

Teacher Project EASY!

Another one of the teachers gifts for the 'Ha Ha Holidays' . I just cut presents out of Christmas Cardstock. The present is Cricut Joys of the Season. I attached 2 'aa' batteries to the back with tape. The project was for 100 faculty memebers. We did projects for 13 days for less than $150. Of course Michaels coupons and sales were involved :) Happy Crafting!!

Silhouette Thank You Card

I whipped these up quick for my daughters softball team parents (my husband is the head coach) to thank them for a great season. Simple card with patterened paper backing a Stampin Up Pretty in Pink paper that I ran through the Cuttlebug embossing folder (I ran 2 at a time to speed up the process). I distressed the embossed paper and adhered them all together. I used scrap paper in Pretty in Pink and Black and the punches Scallop Oval Extra Large and Large Oval from Stampin Up for the Thank You at the bottom. The silhouette is cut with the Cricut Cartridge A Child's Year. I had made bows for the girls over the season and used the leftover ribbon to cut little 1" piece and attach 4 different ribbons with a black brad.

Embossed Glass Ornament.


Glass Ornaments for the softball team. The pink jersey is embossed with pink embossing powder. I cut the shape and number on the Cricut. After placing the stencil on I used the Versa Mark to cover the inside of the stencil. I outlined the jersey and the number with an acrylic marker. I stamped the baseballs with Stampin up White Craft Ink. I sealed it with acrylic sealer.

Reindeer Kisses

We are doing "Ha Ha Holidays" for our Faculty at my daughter's school and one idea I had was Reindeer Kisses. You gotta love the Cricut and the fact it can cut out 100 reindeer in no time. Add some googly eyes and a hershy's kiss you viola! Reindeer Kisses XOXOXOXO

Creation on the go!!!

I absolutely love these block projects we did at the last Stampin' up Hostess Group. They are so much fun to make. I wanted to give my in-laws a thank you for hosting us this past week but I was on the opposite site of the country. I did this block on the go with glitter foam balls inside instead of lights. The saying is out of vinyl and there are a bunch of epoxy snowflakes on the inside and outside that dont show the best in this picture. I have so many more ideas!!!
