Good evening everyone!!! I had enough plastic to make some sample templates for a little key ring. First of all, I am sure what I did voids any warranty. lol jk In other words...you may want to use an old punch. I have the punch I used in one of the pictures. It cut through the thin plastic I had.  I used most (I didn't have enough plastic) of the embossing folders that I have to make sample templates. I used the crop-a-dile to punch a hole in the plastic pieces. I love that thing.....you can even punch holes in wooden popsicle sticks!!!:0) I am going to use this as a sample to see which embossing folder I want to use on a project.:0)

Good Morning!!! I started working on a composition notebook this past weekend for my son's teacher. This is what I came up with... I found some composition notebooks at Target last week for $.40. I picked up four notebooks to bling up a bit. I am still working on the other three, I hope to post them this week. Instructions: For front and back of book: apply light layer of Mod Podge glue, place precut cardstock to notebook. Once dry, cut excess paper (if there is any). Apply a light layer of Mod Podge on both sides of notebook. This makes the notebook a little more sturdy. Once both sides are dry, embelishments are added. I ran the ribbon thru the xyron sticker maker and it applied to the composition notebook without a problem. I placed a ribbon on both sides of the notebook. The acetate was run thru the cuttlebug. I used a glue pen (ZIG) on the areas where the die was pronounced, then added MS glitter. Hope you all are having a great day:0) edit note...anyone not...

Hello! Last night I went to Joann's and found this cute EK paw border punch. I thought, if anything, I could use it on a notecard during Teacher Appreciation.  This is what I used to create the simple dog card. All plain cardstock (old) SU. The plaid cardstock is from DCWV Pet Stack. The ribbon is from Michael's. I think the dog needs a litle stiching and maybe I can find a cute sentiment for the tag. .... this is what I have so far:0) Have a great day!

Here are two tags I worked on yesterday and today. On the porcupine I used the DCWV -The Green Stack (patterend paper), the rest of the cardstock is (old) SU.

Here are a few tags I worked on yesterday and today. I have been using the Marvy round scallop and round paper punch on a lot of the tags. All the paper used is (old) SU. The pumpkin, leaves,  and tree are from the CAC (Create a Critter) cartridge. The caveman and alien are from Paper Doll Dress Up. The rooster is from From my Kitchen. The snake is from Campin Critters.

Here are three tags I have been working on. All cardstock is (old) SU. The punches I used were Uchida (round scallop and circle). I used the doodlecharms cartridge to make the spider. It has i-rock eyes:0) The sakura (cherry blossom) punch is from overseas

I used a scallop and round paper punch by Marvy, as well as a wave paper punch by Fiskars, and a whale punch by MS. The embossing folder is from Cuttlebug. All paper used is (old) SU.

Good morning! I started on a craft this morning and could not figure out what Cuttlebug embossing folder I wanted to use. I used a (recycled) piece of acetate  (plastic cover) and ran it through the Cuttlebug and this is what I came up with. I think I am going to do this with all my folders so I can use the same concept later. Have a great day!

Here are three cards I made yesterday (and forgot to post...oops!). All solid cardstock is from (old) SU. The plaid cardstock is from DCWV -Animal Crackers (cute-huh?). With the oval lace card and the scallop circle card I used Lacey Labels, I welded the shapes together with the gypsy. I am going to have to go back and find where I got the "postage stamp" shape from. With the two birthday cards I ran the sentiment through the cuttlebug. On the blue card, the top (clear, plastic)  is acetate from the cricut box. I had no idea you could run plastic through the cuttlebug.:0) The little snail is from Create a Critter. Have a great day!

I added some orange stickles on the volcano and some stiching, as well as a little birthday banner.

Hello everyone. Here are two cards I just finished. I used Lacey Labels to create the card. On the dinosaur card I used the Create a Critter cartridge. On the monkey card I used  Life's a Party. All cardstock used is (old) SU. I used some stickles on the volcano. Have a great night.

Here are two cards I made today using the Create a Critter cartridge. The alligator was used with all (old) SU cardstock. The zebra was used with (old) SU cardstock as well as Recollections (black) and GP (GeorgiaPacific-white) cardstock. I used the cuttlebug to emboss the cards.

Here are two cards I was working on this am and last night. One is a little more plain than the other, it doesn't have embossing or glitter. Both cards I used (old) SU cardstock. I used the cuttlebug to emboss the water and fish. All shapes were cut using the Create a Critter cartridge. The glitter used was from MS.

Hello everyone! Here are two cards I made today. One is for my best friend's daughter, the other for my mom.:) Wishing you all a great weekend:0 )
