Look what is coming in December!
December 1
we will introduce our Seasonal Expression brochure that will be in
effect until March 31. When I was able to browse through the edition I
was amazed at all the cute little editions - I loved the new papers!
Right now you can already get the new album
:). We will add a few more album colors. So be on the look out for
those. Along with the new albums we have made some new a la carte
selections available for our Picture my Life program. Love those new selections!

Veteran's Day
Veteran's Day is always a day of reflection for me. Last year my husband finally retired from the military after serving in the military for over 36 years. In many ways I served with him, because I may not have stood in the line of fire with him, but I stood behind him, making sure everything was ok on the home front. Just as so many other wives still do today. So, I am always thinking of the spouses that are left behind when the soldier has to leave.
I know what it is like, when the soldier gets wounded - I've been there.
I know what it is like, when the soldier is deployed and you do not know where they are, you hear nothing for several months, they are under fire, they could be dead, your letters are unanswered for months (before the time of cellphones!) - I've been there.
I know what is like to wonder - is he still alive - I've been there.
I know what is like to welcome him home - I've been there!
I do not know - thankfully, what it is like to have lost him... to all those who have had to go through that loss, my prayers and my heart goes out to you! May the Lord's arms surround you with his love always!
Thank You!

October Workshop - More Christmas and Halloween!
Here are the projects we made at our last workshop - I am trying to catch up, as promised! If you would like to do the projects yourself, here is what you will need:
Halloween project: (By the way - think out the box ... so to speak ... this would make a great birthday gift box for a 50 year birthday celebration ... just saying ... ha!)
Flower - Z1790 Art Philosophy cartridge
Square - "
B1460 Halloween Stamp set
Z2173 Slate Ink Pad
1388 Colonial White CS
X5930 Slate CS
X5769 Thistle CS
X7185B Scaredy Cat Paper Pack
Z3011 Scaredy Cat Assortment (for stars)
(I also used a sponge for distressing, a quilling tool Z1795 to roll up my flowers - that makes it so much easier to make those flowers!
Tip for flowers - we do have a tutorial on the flowers, but with the quilling tool, just start rolling up at the end. Then I put some glue on the bottom of the flower (liquid glue or hot glue) hold it together and the flower is done! I like to the let my flower relax a little before I glue. The quilling tool is also great to "fold" the edges of the pedals down. Makes it so much easier - hopes that makes sense :)
Fold-out Wreath Card:
Z3017 Artfully Sent Cricut Collection
C1598 Noel
D1553 Deck the Halls
B1466 Sweet Salutations
X5931 Champagne CS
X5643 Chocolate CS
Z2103 Bamboo Ink pad
Z2111 Chocolate Ink pad
Z1263 Itty Bitty Sparkles (for me - a must have! Love Bling!)
As you can see I used random stamping on the champagne base card, cut out the wreath, decorated it with bling, stamped the round stamp with a reverse image and then the word image and I was done! This was just about a 5 minute card! Love this new cartridge!
O Holy Night
A1168 O Holy Night
D1553 Yuletide Greetings
X5927 Ruby CS
1386 Black CS
1388 Colonial White CS
X7187B Yuletide Paper Pack
Z2114 Cocoa Ink Pad
Z2103 Bamboo Ink Pad
Z2010 White Enamel Hearts
Z3007 Yuletide Assortment (gold bling)Z1985 Gold Shimmer Trim
Z1151 3-d Tape
For inspiration on this card I went to one of our "How to" books - Make it from the Heart.
Hope this will get you going - next week is our next workshop already and we are going to do more Christmas! Yeah! If you want to have some fun and you are close to me - contact me.
If you are not close to me, we can have a "Party in the Box". Contact me now if you are interested!
Have fun!

September 2014 Workshop - Christmas
September 2014 Workshop
As promised - finally - here are the pictures of my September workshop! The pictures from the October workshop will be forthcoming shortly! I really do have a good excuse for being a bit behind the ball - my MIL has been in the hospital for the past 4 weeks and will likely be there for a while yet. We have been going there on a daily basis. It has been touch and go, lots of prayers...but let me tell you how a bit more about these cards ...
Really - creativity is therapy! Create for others, for yourself, but just do it! Whatever it is you enjoy, do it!
Here is a quick list of items:
C1587 Santa Claus
A1168 O Holy Night
D1553 Yuletide Greetings
I used all three sets for those three cards - love it!
Inks:
Cocoa, bamboo, cranberry, Juniper
Cardstock:
Cranberry, Ruby, Black, Colonial White, Sparkle & Shine (retired)
Embellishments:
Gold shimmer trim, red bakers thread, 3-d tape, itty-bitty sparkles, clear flourishes, red shimmer trim, sponge.
I also used the Artbooking Cartridge to cut the label for the Marry Christmas for the last card - makes it so much easier! Some of my ladies in the class are complaining that I am using the cartridges, because now they want to buy the cartridges - I mean, you get 700 images with each cartridge, 3 stamp sets and some other goodies!
As you look at each card you can see that I embellished each card with either distressing, or I added some markers to add some "umph".
Please go to my website and check in my "shopping" are to look for any of the items I mentioned up above. Any time you are looking for inspiration for cards - look at any of our previous idea books (I still have plenty extra) or our How to Books. That is where I go if I need inspiration. The internet is also a great place to go.
Please, let me know if I can help you be more creative - have fun!
If you do not want to miss any of the posts in future - follow the blog - share with your friends :) Thanks!
