“The Sponge“ Well, if being sick actually meant you got a day off from Mom duties…it would probably also mean I got an actual paycheck. Today, neither are true. I am sick and gross and you could probably catch my cold-turning-into-sinus-infection just from reading this post. Wait!!! Don’t leave!!! That part was an exaggeration. Plus, [...]
I like to know exactly which embossing folders I have, so I label them and keep a list. Sometimes I would be looking at cards people created on the Internet and I would fall in love with the embossing folder they used, but they wouldn’t know the name of it. I would go crazy trying [...]
The Cricut Markers are fun to use! They are available in 4 color sets: Primary, Sophisticated, Fashion and Basic. To use the markers, you take out the cutting blade and put the marker in its place to draw instead of cut. I used this method below to outline the word “happy” before I actually cut [...]
I made this adorable (if I do say so myself) cake topper using my Cricut Expression with the Home Accents and Lyrical Letters cartridges…and a skewer stolen from DH’s BBQ stash, LOL. I created the wording using Design Studio. The pretty shape cut comes from Home Accents. I think it’s just lovely and worked perfectly [...]
I saw it for myself today at a local Michael’s!! You know I just had to take this photo for you!!
I told you!! I told you!! The Pink Cricut does exist and it is at Michael’s…at least according to their ad this week. Now, that doesn’t mean you will find one in stock when you get there. Good luck though!! I copied this straight from this weeks ad: $299.99 each (Reg. $399.99) Exclusive Pink Model [...]
Sweet! I used chocolate covered orange candy from Trader Joe’s in the bag. Yum. A Little Background on My Friend… My hairdresser, Michelle, has also become my friend. I don’t get any special discounts at the salon or anything (so sad), but when I’m running late she only mildly picks on me and never takes [...]
My 1st Time to Use Diamond Glaze!! I had such a good time making this card for my soon to be 15 yr old. This is an invitation to her b’day party. The Diamond Glaze is on the angel wing and the butterfly. It gives things a glassy look. It can dry in minutes if [...]
My 1st Time to Use Copic Markers I did use them on the Monkey Card…but I actually made this first. Yes, I did get out of the lines a bit. I have to say I didn’t originally know what all the fuss was about with those pricey Copic markers, then I used them. They’re really [...]
I know Martha’s been to prison, but I think I could take her in a fight. I’m a purple senior belt in Choi Kwang Do and I remember reading that during her “prison stay” she participated and lost a prison decorating contest. I kid you not. So, I’m thinking that she didn’t pick up a [...]
