   I will be working on a video tonight and will have one up and running for you tomorrow morning.

Here is what I made: This is an ornament for the music lover in your life! I made a shaker ornament using MS Holiday glitter. I love this little ornament. It's so interactive and was fun to make. It was my first try and I think it came out pretty good.

Ornament is Winter Frolic

Ornament box

Hello my crafty friends!

How are you doing this thursday morning? I hope you find yourself well. The weekend is aproaching yay! Some of us (educators) get a 3 day weekend. So today is my Friday =)

For today, I have an ornament box that I created. Can you believe I actually used sissors?! Yes, I had to dust them off, and clean off the cob webs, but, they worked well.

The snowflake is an SVG I found on SVGSHOP.com I wanted to leave it white at first but my CRICUT! Once again, dragged a lot of the corners and tore my Lil Snowflake. So he under went a brief but short surgery and I glitterfied him to hide the scars! He doing well thank you!

Here is my box. I think it came out so cute and will definitely be making more this christmas. This was my trial run and I'm pretty happy. I hope you enjoy it.

Ornament box

Bling, Button, and Twine.
Perfect combo!

Added Tulle for the first time.

Tangled!

Hello my crafty friends!

    Happy Tuesday. I hope you all are having a great start to the week. I am trying to make myself come inside my craft room daily and ACTUALLLY CRAFT. Since my move into this room, I browse the web for inspitration. I also get lost watching YouTube and being on FB! LOL. I have to use my time wisely in here. =)

    Well last night I was thinking of my lil niece I have. She dressed up as Rapunzel from Tangled. So I thought, why not make her a card featuring Pascal. He's cute! So I found this awesome SVG on Mardenz.

    I was first unhappy on how it cut. My cricut has been recently shreding a lot of my cuts. (I do have a fairly new blade in there) I really want to get the Sihouette Cameo. I here that cuts like butter! X-mas maybe? I hope!

    Here goes my card. Enjoy. I added glitter to cover up the tears and I hand made the flower and added acrylic paint to the ends of it for a different look. I hope you like it.


What did you think? I love reading you comments. Have a fabulous day. I will be back tomorrow with another project!

Question? Does anyone have the Cameo. Any thoughts of it? Know where I can get one for a good price?

Dia De Los Muertos Blog Hop Winner

Happy Monday my crafty friends!

   I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I was able to play in my craft room a bit. After I organized it. It was a bit chaotic, but I moved my bedroom upstairs and brought my craft room downstairs! I love it here! I liked where it was before, but I need some change. Does anyone ever feel that way?

   On Sunday it was on of my greatest friends birthday. We call each other sisters! I love her very much! I've known her for 14 years now, ever since we were in junior High! How time flies! Now she has a beautiful family who I adore to pieces. They mean the world to me =)

  Her favorite color is pink, so PINK had to be in her card. I wanted something simple but glitterific. Here is what I came up with.


I hope you enjoyed this.

Now onto the winner!!

The winner for the Dia de los Muertos Blog Hop is:

Pink Bling Crafter.
