Here are my Stickles in a Dollar Store Vase that I plan to Glass Etch
STICKLES!!!

Stickles are a GREAT glitter glue that you can use to embellish your cards, scrapbook pages, other embellishments and stuff I haven’t even thought of yet.  Stickles are NOT like just any ‘ole glitter glue.  The bottles are made with a [...]

Yep, it’s true.  As seen in Michael’s in California, and reported by a poster on the Cricut board.  The cart is called “Pink Journey”.

Ok, this is NOT my best card ever, but DS#1 DID have a great time the other day when his friend’s Dad took his DS, my DS#1 and another friend to the waterpark for the day.  Big thank you and thumbs up to that.  So, I made the Dad this card for DS#1 to give [...]

Card on right says: “Chocolate, coffee, men – some things are better rich.”
I made these cards for my BFF for her b’day.  I’ve been planning to make her a set of coffee cards for about 6 months now.  She doesn’t have a clue about them, but she will soon.  She arrives here tomorrow to spend [...]

So, I had this great idea to save myself some time.  I precut scalloped circles on my Cricut Expression using the Mini Mongrams cartridge (pg 129 for the circle scallop).  I love having some basic colors that I use that I can just grab!!  Then I stored them in these plastic snack bags and I [...]

Do you heart this coffee card I made? I lurve it!! It was created because I bought a bunch of that coffee paper to make my BFF cards for her b’day and ended up not using that paper at all. So sad. While I was looking at the paper and crying (kidding), I decided to [...]
