It's been awhile...

Hi friends,

  It has been a LONG time since I last posted.  It has been on of those years.  I had my third child in February, got sick in April, which led to me having a very complicated and invasive surgery in late May.  Now about a month post-op I'm starting to get back into a good working routine.

  I have some projects in the works, and lots of Close to my Heart Announcements coming up, so stay tuned!

  In the meantime, here is a little something I made right before my surgery, but didn't get around to posting:

You can do these simple 4x4 cards using any coordinating patterned cardstock, and your favorite stamp sentiment.  These products I used are no longer available for purchase, but if you are looking for some more inspiration check out my shopping website HERE.

Happy Crafting Everyone!

Easy Valentines

Some of you may have seen this picture already.  I was just too excited and posted on Facebook already. I just wanted to let you know that this easy Valentine project was a BIG HIT with my 5 yr old.  We used the treat tubes in the Whoo’s your Valentine kit to make these cute Hershey kissed valentines for her Kindergarten class.  (Yes, I’ll admit it, I bought more than one kit to have enough for her whole class.)  The tags were cut out using the Artiste cricut cartridge, and then I showed my little girl how to stamp it, and she went to town! I still need to wrap the tags, but I am so glad to have her Valentines ready to go since I will be about 38weeks pregnant by then.

I LOVE being able to involve my daughter in paper crafting in fun ways!

Give Thanks

I know it has been forever! But, here I am, jumping back on the blogging bandwagon.  The last few months have been really hard on me and my family, so I needed to let the blog go for awhile.

Now, things are starting to ease up for a few more months, so I’ll be blogging more often again!

Today I have a project using the Cricut Artiste cartridge, and the Avonlea paper packet!  The new Artiste cartridge is awesome! This cute mini book came together in less than an hour!

I am entering this book into this week’s Heart 2 Heart challenge who’s theme is ‘time to be grateful.’ I have so much to be grateful for, and plan on filling my mini book up with pics from our upcoming Thanksgiving trip with family!

Just a note for November: when you spend $50 and purchase the SOTM, you can get another stamp set of your choice (excluding personalized) for 50% off! And for every November SOTM purchased, CTMH will donate $1 to aid relief efforts of Hurricane Sandy!

Happy Crafting Everyone!
