My Glue Holder


Ok, I had too much time on my hands today. I kept misplacing my empty spool of ribbon that I like to set my glue in upside down, so it it ready for use when I need it. Those who know me, have witnessed how much of a loss I am at when I lose my glue holding spools. So I had the idea if I made it look pretty it would less likely "accidentally" get thrown away (because it looks like garbage to my husband). So now I can lovingly place my glue in a cute empty ribbon spool. It just puts a smile on my face

Flowers and More Flowers


Ok, I went a little crazy... But I love this Butterfly Box. I wanted to make something for a friend in the hospital who could not have "real" flowers. Also this would make a very cute item for your classroom. Write each of the kids names on the stems and pull one out when you call on a child for an answer. It will remind you everyday you are teaching our kids to blossom, even on the tough days. This will be one of the projects for my Summer Stamping Spectacular (SSS). Hope you can make it to more then one event, check out the calender dates and times!

New Tecnique


We almost burnt down the house but has so much fun making this card. Use Glossy white paper and put a flame too it. After the glossy side of the cardstock is all blacked take your stamp image to the paper and press, it will remove the soot. Very cool vintage feel. Don't foget you can always dye your flowers with re-inkers to get the "perfect" color match!

Tooo Darn Cute...


Top Note Purse... I LOVE it! Fun and super quick to make!

What you missed from the our last class...


This one was voted the "best of class" It still amazes me what you can do with a little ink and paper. The design was inspired from a card made by a wonderfully talented lady, but all my bookmarks "vanished" and I can't find her site anymore. :(

Supplies I used... Chocolate Chip in and Card stock, Whisper White, Water Color Paper, Iridescent Ice (adds sooo much to the butterflies), Upsy Daisy, Gods Beauty, Very Versatile, Distressed Texture plate (Adds a LOT!- Fold card in half and run the whole thing though).
