Hello Scrapper!

Valentine Heart Candy Container
Hello Scrappers!
I love the Cricut Cartridge Tags, Bags, Boxes and More. I need to use it more often. I tend to forget how great some of the older carts are. So for today's project I have made a Valentine Candy Holder using this cart. Have fun watching the video and thanks for joining me.

PAGODA FAN CARD
Hello Scrappers!
I had so much fun making this card with the Pagoda Cricut Cartridge. I have used my Design Studio to weld two fans together to make this card. Don't forget to flip your image before you weld the two fans together. I have an alternative design if you don't have Design Studio, so anyone can make this. I have included instructions on how to make your own tassels to add to your fan. I hope you enjoy the video, and thanks for joining me.

VALENTINE TREAT BAGS
Hello Scrappers!
A friend of mine was in the need of an idea for Valentine treats for his classmates. He is 10 years old. So here you go Nick! Have fun creating your treats!
I cut the "top note shape" from the Accents Essentials Cricut Cartridge. The shape can be found on page 79. It was cut at 3-1/2".

DESIGNER'S CALENDAR SERIES-JULY
Hello Scrappers!
I have the video posted for the next calendar page. July is picnic month! When I was going through my card stock, I saw one that reminded me of a table cloth. So that was my inspiration for a picnic layout. The vellum I use is a 12"x12"(acetate) from a stack that I found at Tuesday Mornings. I did forget to give the size of the calendar frame for the mini calendar. If you have been watching the series, all of the dimensions for the mini calendar are the same. I hope you enjoy the video, and thanks for joining me.

MY TAKE ON SPINNER CARDS
Hello Scrappers!
I just love making spinner cards! So I have come up with one that is a little different. I have made the track on the top and along the right side of the card. The width of the track is 1-1/4". You can cut the length to fit the size of your card. I used the card stock from K&Co.
Berry Sweet Stack. I hope you enjoy the video and thanks for joining me.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POP-UP CARD

It does take longer to do the whole video thing then I thought. I'm sure things will get simpler once I learn more by experience. I hope you enjoy this weeks card that I designed for my friend Holly who is having her 50th birthday. Thanks for joining me. Lorraine

HEAT EMBOSSING GUN-TOOL OF THE WEEK
Hello Scrappers!
An embossing heat gun is an essential tool for creating a raised image. It's used to quickly melt embossing powder by emitting intense heat without blowing to much air. A heat gun is the easiest and safest way to emboss. It can also be used to heat set stamped images, and to speed up drying time for watercolor or pigment inks when you are not heat embossing. I purchased my gun from Michael's Arts and Crafts. I used a coupon and purchased it for half price. This product is by Marvy and is silver in color. If you have any additional questions on heat embossing please leave a comment and I will be happy to answer it for you.
