My First Cuttlebug Card!!

My parents gave me a Cuttlebug for my b-day. WHOO HOO! I absolutely love it and all the possibilities it has. I prefer to emboss with it, as I have my Cricut, but it can cut dies too. What a great machine! And so easy.
This card is my first ever creation with it, and I can't wait to make more cards and scrapbook pages! Of course I had to incorporate my favorite ribbon from American Crafts at the top. It just wouldn't be the same without that cute striped ribbon!!


Thanks Mom & Dad!!

Newest Gift Card Boxes

I've been at it again. I thought I'd try to sell some Gift Card Boxes at Quilted Bear. Here's just a sampling:

These are dry embossed with Lasting Impressions Templates. My other weakness: SHOES!

I love that Giraffe from New Arrival. I couldn't wait to put him on a box!!

Scrapbook Pages

After having my daughter in 2005, I wanted her to be able to see how darling she was from the beginning. Her book was my first attempt at 12 x 12 and I LOVE IT. Now she's 2 1/2 and I've only got up to 5 months done, but hey. I do the best I can!

*All of these were done prior to my Cricut. I cannot wait to make big progess on her book now that I have it! I'm sure with my 22 cartridges I can find the perfect set up. Here's hoping!!

Cute Cards I Created!

Here are two cards that I made to give my friend Emilee... She placed an order with me for 20 cards, 2 of each Holiday (Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas) and 2 each of: Birthday, Thanks, and Get Well Soon. It was the most unique set I've done thus far, but I finally got my groove on and created some freakin' cute cards... dare I say! These are 2 of my faves.
