Got a new scrapping toy!

I haven't been on much as of late, because I got a job...then had surgery!

All is well.  I just wasn't feeling up to crafting anything!  Boo!

But I got a package in the mail the other day and ...  It was a Cuttlebug!  YAY!  I have had so much fun just running paper thru it for no particular reason at all!  LOL

I love shopping online for just about anything and one of my top websites to go to for scrapping supplies is  Custom Crops!


So...I got out my new Cuttlebug and embossed some green(ish) paper to add to a card I was working on.


This card was made for a Challenge over at ScrapbookSteals. Last week's challenge was to use a punch in your card design. 

I also used my new Cuttlebug to make this card...



Valentine's box

I have been working alot lately so I haven't had time to craft ANTYHING!  :(
But I have today and tomorrow off so I decided to get to it!

I used a tutorial HERE to make some Valentine's Day Boxes

How stinkin' Cute is that!?  I'm not being conceited...just love the tutorial!

Christmas is almost here...

Please forgive my absence.  We have family visiting and we've been going, going, going!

My nephew is here with his parents and so my youngest daughter (who is the same age as my nephew)  wanted to make cookies!  But not just any cookies...Ginger bread men!

They had so much fun.  I'm glad too, because ginger bread dough has to be my least favorite cookie dough to deal with!

MidWeek Mojo #21

So ...
ScrapbookSteals has a challenge every week for us to try out.  This week the sketch HERE is what I went by to do this page.

I think I went a little overboard with the embellishments but, I'm going to leave it and look back at it in the years to come, as a learning experience.

I need to catch up!

I haven't posted anything in a long time!

Don't worry, I haven't stopped scrapping or crafting. 


Just haven't taken the time to upload any photos.  These were all done for the sketch challenge on http://www.scrapbooksteals.com/ 's facebook group.  You can go to the blog at the site just listed and see the sketches.  A new one comes out every Wednesday.   Hey, that's today!  Woohoo.

I also found a pattern on the internet for tissue box covers!
And boy have I been busy!  Just look ....

Made another layout...

I'm thinking I might have to make an album just for All the states we've lived in, and another for the countries we've visited!

Just finished this one and thought I'd add it...

Testing the mobile app

I made a couple of cards yesterday, but my mobile phone's camera isn't the greatest. :(

yeah, that is some sorry quality.
Here is a better photo...
