I originally made this card at a class I attend once a month Here.  However, I was not able to stamp the sentiment before I had to leave, so I took it home to complete.  I love how this stamp fits perfectly and the color matches the paper very nicely!

Did you know you could do this to a toilet paper roll?

I confess, I did not make this!  My mom must have been saving these toilet paper rolls for some time, as she whipped out these cute babies at our last craft night for all the ladies and also gave them out to the grandkids for Easter...how ingenious.  She did assure us that they were "clean" but I did notice all the candy was individually wrapped! :-)

Marriage, New Life and Death!


I recently had to make a wedding card and a "you're pregnant" card and several sympathy cards...doesn't that just make you think about how short our time is on this earth!  We need to make sure we are glorifying God with our lives...everyday!

More Cards

Here are a few cards we created at our February Women's Craft night at church...I wanted to teach the ladies how to make an easel card.  These were stamps that my dear friend bought at a yard sale...two ladies who came each got to take them home as door prizes!





Also, I just wanted to share this Valentine Card I made my loving hubby! Love these cute birds from Lawn Fawn!


CD Calendar

I am so behind on posting projects that I've created this past year...this is one I had been wanting to do for quite a while, so I decided to create them for our January craft class at the church.  We ended up pooling our seasonal stamps to make it come together.  It took a considerable amount of time to plan, prep and actually complete.  Lots of stamping and inking.  I used the files from Here for the calendars.











Card In A Box

These have been popping up all over the place.  I really wanted to make one and had the perfect excuse...my grandmother turned 90 this past winter.  Quite an achievement!!  I put my Gypsy to good use.  I used the hide contour button to make the pink background behind the "90"solid by "hiding" the "POW" from the Indie Art cartridge.  I also used the Cricut gel pens to "write" the happy birthday sentiment and then cut it out.

Some Crafty Creations!

It's been awhile since I posted any projects that I've done.  Every month I teach, along with my mom and dear friend, a women's craft class at my church.  Here's April's projects.  The first is a Mother's Day treat card.  Perfectly holds 5 Hershey Nuggets...all mom's deserve some chocolate on Mother's Day!  I worked off a template I found Here
