Christmas Album

Good Evening,
I thought before I got ready to go to bed I would post this Christmas Album I made. I did not come up with this idea, I saw this at a craft fair at work, so I decided to make one myself  I used my cricut on Reindeer and tags, sticker and EK Sucess punch, Peachy Keen stamp for the snowman.
Its not as perfect as I would have like for it to come out.  I thought it was cute. The cards are to put photos on or journaling. 
Well better go to bed its getting late have to get up early for work.
Thanks for looking and have a good night.

I Racked Up

Hello,
Hope everyone has had a beautiful Sunday, I did the sun was out, birds were chirping. The weather was warm today, it has not been warm for a long time. I was checking my email this morning saw Joanns was having a AWESOME sale on the scrapbook stuff. I had to hurry up and get out the door. I have not been to Joanns in a long time, I have been buying alot of my scrapbook stuff on line. When I got there I headed straight over to the Cricut cartridges they were on sale got 2 cartridges that I wanted Locker Talk & Indie Art. Next I headed over the paper isle, I got 5 stacks of K&Company paper double side, some of their emblishments, Right now I am having a fedish with paper I had the BIGGEST RUSH going I could not believe how excited i was getting over paper and  buying Cricut cartridges. I guess I am a Cricut/paper junkie. Then i took a look at clear stamps decided I did not need any I have plenty. Then I got a border punch from EK success. I had to hurry up because I told my husband I was going to the grocery store. I was so excited. Payday is this Friday may have to go back to see what else I can pick up. I posted a picture of what I have bought. 
Hope you have a wonderful day

Goody Purses

I made these goody purses to give to the girls in my office for Valentines I did not put too much Valentine decorations on them, I figured they could use them to put gift cards in for special occasions. 
I used the Tags, Bags, Boxes & More I used paper from Basic Grey Two Scoops collection. I got this at Hobby Lobby it comes with 16 sheets of paper and stickers. I hope they turned out ok I wanted to put more stuff on them, but it got late and I should be in the bed so I was trying to hurry, I used ribbon, flowers, stamps.

I did not know what to put on this purse it was getting late, I did not know what to put on this purse did not want to make look to busy or take away from the paper. So I left it alone.
This purse I stamped with stamps from
Inkadinkado, used some bling and the love button is from Close To My Heart. and ribbon.

Well have a good night, and thanks for lookings

Valentine Boxes

Good Evening,
I know Valentines is not far off. I thought I would make goodie boxes for my daughter to give to her closest friends at school. I used the Tags Bags Boxes & More cartridge for the heart boxes one of the boxes were cut at 8 1/2 inches and the other was cut at 8 inches. The tall box I got from my huband who buys golf balls and they come in the tall box. I thought I would use that as a template and cut paper to and make it a goodie box. I used the Sweetheart cartridge to decorate the boxes, and  Fiskers punch for the top border, the bottom border I used is a Martha Stewart punch, I also used the Stampin Up punch to write Happy Valentines. Thanks for looking, Have a good day.

Fun While I Was Snowed In!!

Oh my goodness,

I had  fun while I was snowed in for 4 days. I made a point to stay in my craft room most of the time to make some cards. It took me a while to get the ideas to come out. I had so many that I did not know where to start. But I finanly got into the zone.

I played with Paisley cartridge, Songbird cartridge, and Sweethearts. I mainly used  Paisley and Songbird, I had fun.  If you dont have these cartridges I suggest you get them. Dont let me forget the Stampin Up  Scalloped Trim border punch this is also a must have I love it.   I am waiting to receive the Forever Young cartridge can't wait to get that one. Here are the cards I made.
This card I Stampin Up Scallop Trim Border punch, ribon, hello stamp was from Close To My Heart, I dont remember what stamp set, and the bottom black buttons I got at Joanns.
This card is one of my favorites.  I used the Stampin Up Trim border punch, prima flowers, black brads, the cartridge I used was Songbird, Thinking of You stamp is Close To My Heart, ribbon from Hobby Lobby, butterfly is Martha Stewart punch.
I visited My Pinkstamper website and she had a challenge to make a card for someone or to a soldier, to cheer them up. So I thought I  would accept that challenge. I have a couple of cards that I will send out to people I know who need cheering up. Its always nice to get card you were not expecting.
Have a good evening.
Thanks For Looking. Love to hear what you think.
