Steampunk Pocket Watch Tag-VIDEO

Hello everyone,
I loved making this tag only because I have gone out of my comfort zone and I am loving it.  I used one of my chipboard tags that I offer for purchase, and went steampunk crazy on this tag and boy was it fun. I didn't use any flowers or satin ribbon.  I am loving this new style of designing.  Thank you all for watching, and for your comments.  If you need to contact me with any questions, just click on the "contact me" button at the top of this page.

Teddy Bear Parade Leprechaun

Today I was in the mood for a cute card, and since St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner, I decided to get my Teddy Bear Parade cartridge out and make this adorable leprechaun.  I cut the image at 6" and made it into a shape card. After adding his adorable costume, I added black stickles to his shoes, pot of gold, tie, and buckle.  He also got a real black button for his jacket.  I cut the shamrock that is on page 49 from the Give A Hoot cricut cartridge.  Thank you for stopping by to visit today.

I love black and white together, so I wanted to design a nature themed card. I seem to have a lot of paper with birds on it. The bird image was perfect for the look I had envisioned. Enjoy the video and thank you so much for joining me today.

Birdcage Love Card-VIDEO

I think this is a vintage style card.  I am trying to make some different style cards, and I need your help on what to call this style.  I usually use pink,  green, lots of flowers, and bows on my regular cards.  Have a look back at some of my older card creations and you will see what I mean.  I have challenged myself to explore some of the more tattered look. and I am really liking it.  I hope you enjoy the video and thank you for all your comments and for taking the time to visit me.

Happy Birthday Card-Bird With Nest

I'm trying a new card size.  I am making a 5-1/2" square and also a 6"x 6".  I think I am really going to like this size and I will be able to use the smaller paper pads.  What started all of this, is the two paper pads I found for under $2 dollars at Joann's.  Thanks everyone for watching.

Grunge Happy Birthday Guy Card

Hello everyone!

I am trying something different.  I have made my first grunge card using the DCWV Tattered Time Paper Stack and a few "grunge paper elements alone with the clocks found at Michael's in the dollar bin.  The paper stack has two pages of tickets, and two pages of measuring tapes.  I used three different mats topped with the paper containing the gears.  I used a mini paper clip to hold my ticket and the Tim Holt chain, along with the corner thingies to add more interest since I'm not using any ribbon or flowers.  Try using Crystal Affects on any of your metal pieces.  It works great, and holds it all in place.  Thanks for visiting me today for a project that is really out of my comfort zone.

Valentine Card Project #1-VIDEO

Hello everyone!!!  It is so nice to be back crafting again.  I am going to start of this week with Valentine card projects.  My goal this week is to post one video for you each day.  I already have a few other projects in the works, so I can be sure to stick to my goal.  The last bit of this video got cut off because lack of space on my phone.  That's because I have not made a video in so long.  I hope to do better on the next.  I could not post a picture of the card because there is an issue with blogger with this feature.  Anyway enjoy the video, and project.
