St Pat's. Challenge

By
Looking forward to some challenges this coming month!  Here is one for CSDivas... Make a St. Patrick's Theme Project.  It can be a card, layout or home decor, but it has to have the color green and a pot of gold somewhere on it.  Here is what I came up with...

Leprechaun and pot of gold- PaperDoll Dress Up
Rainbow- Create a Critter
Shamrock- Designer's Calendar
Also for FCCB, the challenge is to create a shape card, something other than a square or rectangle.  I thought the shamrock would be perfect.  Using my Gypsy, I was able to take two shamrocks, flip the second one, and weld them together.  Here is the inside...
For the sentiment on Designer's Calendar, I used my Cricut green marker and traced it out.  But because it was only 2 inches, I needed to trace it again with my black marker pen.

Hope you join us at CSDivas and play along for a chance to win.

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

By
Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you. Two years ago, I took a step back from crafty and downsized 75% of my craft room.  However with just these awesome tools, I have been able to get back into the swing of things and I don't miss having a larger craft room. Personally, I feel every crafter should have these starting out.  They make creating easy and fun! Tools mentioned: Misti, Neehna Bright Cardstock, Distress Oxides, Ranger Dylusions die cut, In Love Art Shop word die cuts, ATG, Prismacolor Pencils, premade cards,Fiskars cutting blade and trimmer, Zig color pens, Wink Of Stella, Alcohol markers, t-ruler, Westcott 0 ruler, 6x6 paper pads, Versamark, EK Success powder tool, 3d Crystal Lacquer, Tombow adhesive, Momento/Hero Arts black ink, Cricut, Chameleon Black Pen, Pencil, Grid stamping block, etc. For the mont

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8
