Be My Valentine!!!

2012-01-25T09:00:00.001-05:00

Hello My Pink Friends and Fans!

Let's all make sure we wish ROBYN a HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!!!!!! so if my travels are going as planned today I should be laying on the beach enjoying the sand and sun with my family :) in Barbados!

Today we are sharing our creations and celebrating ROBYN aka My Pink Stamper birthday so makesure that you visit her and give her lots of Birthday Love, I had fun creating for this month designe team theme and hope that you all enjoy it. I was'nt able to do a video being away from home and getting the video to post on time so I will share with you all a few pictures and try to tell you the create information lol!!

I used a 4 X 4 square chipboard and then applied a sheet of K & Co cardstock using my ATG adhesive, when I finished that I used some Stampin Up Cranbeery ink to finish the sides of my chipboard. I used a regular stack of PINK Post-A-Notes and stamped on them using the collection from My Pink Stamper "From the Heart", I then took a regular paper binder clip to hold the Post-A-Notes to the chip board and added my Heart that I cut from the Cricut Lite cartridge Slummber Party at 2 inches with each layer. I then took tacky tape placed on the heart to stick in place finished with some sparkle using Star Dust Stikles and a little ribbon then called it a finished project my friends !!!

Wow! it has been a while that I have list all the items instead of a video lol! I just enjoy the videos much more :) so my create Pink friends I thank you for taking the time to stop over today for a visit and hope that you will visit again. I look forward to my return and sharing my trip adventures with all of you and creating a scrap pages or two along the way.

Halloween Goodies !

2011-10-09T07:45:00.000-04:00

Hello My Create Friends!

What a fabulous week we have been having with all the great creations from the design team over at CCI, I just love all the fun treat holders they have been making. I can't wait for you to see what's coming up this week for you all, I know you are going to love it and have fun joining us on this project :) So please come over to visit us and become inspired Creative Critters Imagination

I made my creation using two cartridges I used the Cricut cartridge Wrap it Up and the Imagine cartriged All Wrapped Up, how cool both names kinda the same lol! my treat holder is from the Imagine cartridge also the layer tag is from that cartridge. I cut the box at 10.5, the tag was cut at 2.3 and my Spider from Wrap it up was cut at 1.9.

I filled the colors in using the Imagine All Wrapped Up cartridge color palete added alittle doodle work with my American Craft White marker pen, pop it all up with some foam tape, added some Stikles to my Spiders legs then my sentiment which is from My Pink Stampers Spookilicious collection. So for the final touches on the treat box I used some homemade Sparkle spray to jazz it up some and then I took my regular paper punch abd added some fun festive ribbion to the topper.

I thank you my creative friends for visiting and hope that you are inspired today to create something for yourself and some one else in your life, I also hope that you come back again very soon to see what I will be creating and sharing.

Fall Home Decor !

Hello My Create Friends!

What fabulous weather we are having right now, it feels like the start of Spring into Summer and forsure not the start of Fall. I have been trying to make some home decor for the change of seasons and was inspired to create some blocks to set on top of my fireplace in the family room.

I had a funtime making them and it really was very simple to create just alittle time was all I had to invest, the paper I used for the entire creation is from last years DCWV Fall stack lol! I will say that if I was to make this same creation again I would change some of the colors/patterns for the letters they don't stand out the way I wanted them to but I'm still very happy with the turnout of them.

I thank you all each and everyone for taking time out to stop over and visit today I hope that you are inspired to create something for yourself and someone else in your life, YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!

Hello My Pink Friends and Fans!

I'm happy that you have stopped over for a visit today, I always enjoy creating and sharing with all my creative friends.

I just love the Spookalicious collection from My Pink Stamper filled with so many great sentiments for all your creation, as you can see with my creation I had trouble just using a single sentiment He! He!

I don't have the video for this project today, we are currently remolding our house so things are really out of place and very crazy right now. I hope to be back into my studio and in craft action by the end of this week, I have so many things that I want to get finished and started that I'm just going bonkers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any wooo! ets get on with my creation, the base of my creation is a Test Tube and holder set that I purchased at my local Micheals store, I just covered the front with some fun pattern paper from K&Co then I used the Cricut cartridge Simply Charmed for all my images. Then I just stamped my sentiments on some white cardstock run them into the Xyron to create a sticker and put them on my Tubes with some fun ribbon.

I thank you for taking time out to stop for a visit today and hope that you also vist the other fabulous designers today and that you're inspired to create something for yourself and someone else in your life today.

Now the design team will be creating to inspire you with home decor creations this week. I just know that you are going to love what you see, so let me share with you today my creation that I made to wrap up this weeks theme for Labor Day.

Labor Day is to celebrate the working folks, the changes that were fought for in the past to make things better for us now, we still have many labor workers making changes to this day for the working forces.

I used three differnt cartridges to create this very simple layout, George Basic Shapes, Graphiclly Speaking, and Stand and Salute. I used my Kate Kitchen Imagine cartridge to add all the color and patterns. The stamp sentiment is from My Pink Stampers colloection Freedon Rocks, I added some final touches with a little Star DUst Stickles to the fireworks and then added Glossy Accents to the Life Is Good. I did inking using Tim Holtz on the edges and called this one finished for the book lol!

I thank you for stopping over today and taking time out to visit CCI. We hope that you come and visit again very soon, remeber that we have a new post with a different designer everyday of the week.

Hello My Create Friends,

I hope your weekend has been filled with goodtimes and some crafty creations, I'm still trying to settle back into my home mode after this past weeks travel episode LOL! So I was able to spend a few minutes (and I do mean a few) with the Cricut Class Room online software from Provo Craft (which is FREE!) and introduce it to my Imagine Girl, and what a fun time I had working with the two of them together.

I have read a few post on the Cricut message board from Cricut.com asking about this and if the CCR was compatable with the Imagine and YES they do play well together LOL! I just grab my Cricut Lite cartridge Block Party and the Imagine cartridge Kates Kitchen for my first go at it and made this very plan card, nothing fancy as you can see, Im really trying to get my MoJo flowing again.

I do have a couple of screen shot to share with you and pictures today, I hope to beable to make a video soon with this and share it with you all, the Imagine with the CCR is just FABULOUS!!! so my create friends I thank you for stopping over toda and hope that you are inspired to create something for yurself and someone else in your life, YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello My Creative Friends,

I hope your weekend has been filled with lots of fun with family and friends and plenty of crafty time for yurself :) I must say it has been a very long past few days, we had some travels to make and I'm not home so I have been out of my studio for the past few days.

I love to have a creative journal with me everywhere I go because you never know when something will sparke the creative mind :) I made this one using my Your Story to bind the book and then just some random parts left over in my draw to decorate the front, all the pages on the insode are just blank cream color pages so I can draw, write, tape something into the page for a reminder later.

I hope that you enjoy this creation and maybe if you don't currently have a creative journal that you will make one for yourself and enjoy documenting your creative inspirations, I thank you for stopping over today and hope that you return again for a visit, YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!
