Big Shot Pennant Die


Today's Lesson From The Craft Room:  Time Flies When You're Having Fun!!!!

Today my friend came over to make up treats for her son's upcoming birthday party.  Since we had some leftover designer series paper we decided to try out the SU! exclusive pennant die to make a sign for her son's party (which he can keep in his room after the party).  It came out sooooo cute!!!!!!  It was very quick to put together and with a few eyelets and some ribbon it is ready to hang!  By the time we looked at our watches it was time for her to head out and pick up her son from school.  Time really does fly when you're having fun!  What fun did you have today????

Happy Birthday To Me! :)


Today's Lesson From The Craft Room: Celebrate Being Born!!!!

Today is my birthday and I am so grateful to be here on this planet!!!!!! A big shout out to my mom and dad for having me :) Today's card says it all - "happy everything!" May we all appreciate everything wonderful in our lives!!!!!

Today's card was quick and fun. I used a pencil eraser to make the dots on the bermuda bay cs and coated them with crystal effects. The alien was cut out and colored and covered in crystal effects. Hope you like it!

Stamp Organization

Today's Lesson From The Craft Room:  Take Time To Get Organized!

Sorry I disappeared for a few days - it seems the chaos in my craft room led to a migraine headache yesterday...at least that's what I'm saying caused the migraine :)  I was down for the count yesterday, but am back on my feet today.  I have spent a lot of the day trying to organize the craft room and have begun creating a notebook that will help me keep track of what stamps I have.  When I'm creating I don't have a quick and easy way to remember what images I have except for digging through all of the stamp boxes - so now this notebook will be my new "helper!" I'll give you a peek once I get it done.  I'm amazed at how long it is taking me to make, but I know I'll be a happy stamper once it's complete!  What are you doing to stay organized????
